The Ofgem Meter Asset Managers Registration Scheme

Our scheme evaluation process seeks to ensure that Gas Meter Asset Managers under assessment in the UK are fully compliant with all sections of the Meter Asset Managers Code of Practice.

In May 2000 Ofgem published proposals to secure effective competition in the provision of gas metering services within Great Britain (GB).  This led to the establishment of the Review of Gas Metering Arrangements (RGMA) project, the objective of which was to determine industry-wide business processes and supporting data flows to underpin competition in gas metering services, as well as the organisational separation of National Grid Transco's transportation and metering businesses.

A key consideration of the RGMA project has been to ensure that any technical and safety issues associated with the move to a competitive gas metering market have been effectively assessed and addressed. As such, a gas industry representative group have developed a Code of Practice for Gas Meter Asset Managers (MAMCoP) which brings together all relevant GB technical documentation and legal requirements covering the complete life cycle of meter installations.

The Scheme

The scheme evaluation process seeks to ensure that the MAM under assessment is fully compliant with all sections of the MAMCoP. The Ofgem registration process, defined within the MAM Scheme Guidance document will enable MAMs to receive accreditation to continue to operate as a MAM. We carry out the initial assessment and on-going management of the registration process.Registration

Accredited MAMs are listed on the Ofgem MAM Registration Scheme listing of accredited MAMs as below.  Accredited MAMs will additionally receive a certificate of registration will be able to display the MAMRS quality mark.
