Why Utilities Choose DB Utility
We're not a generalist contractor. We specialize in high-volume AMI deployments — and we've built every process around speed, accuracy, and accountability.
Mobilize in Days, Not Months
Nationwide crew deployment from our network of background-checked, uniformed technicians. We've deployed to 21 states and counting.
98%+ Completion on Inside-Sets
Our AI-powered scheduling, automated text campaigns, and door-to-door follow-up have achieved the highest completion rates in the industry on residential inside-set programs.
Every Install GPS-Verified
No exceptions. Every meter installation is tagged with GPS coordinates, timestamped photos, and real-time QA/QC validation before your team ever sees the data.
Real-Time Project Dashboards
Your project managers get live access to installation progress, exception tracking, crew performance, and daily reports — not end-of-week spreadsheets.
Qualified Mechanical Staff
Licensed plumbers and mechanical technicians on every project. When we hit exceptions — frozen valves, non-standard configurations, access issues — we solve them on-site instead of creating callbacks.
Clean Data Into Your Billing System
We don't just install meters. We verify reads, validate serial numbers, and integrate directly with your billing and asset management systems so your data is clean from day one.
What We Do
Full-spectrum AMI field services — from single-meter replacements to citywide deployments.

Inside-Set Programs
Full-service residential inside meter replacement programs. We manage everything: AI-powered scheduling and call centers, text message campaigns, door-to-door coordination, and resident follow-up — proven to achieve 98%+ completion rates.
Collector & Network Installation
AMI network infrastructure installation and commissioning. We deploy collectors, repeaters, and gateways with GPS-verified placement and signal validation to ensure your network performs from day one.

Comprehensive large meter fleet management for 2"+ compound and turbine meters. Accuracy testing with portable test equipment, maintenance scheduling, replacement coordination, and detailed reporting.

End-to-end cross connection control program management. Hazard surveys, annual backflow device testing (RPZ, DCVA, PVB), compliance tracking, enforcement letter generation, and regulatory reporting.
