Contrôle de la qualité de l’eau

Guaranteeing drinking water that meets public health requirements

Water quality control is an essential mission in operating the rural public drinking water service.

For OMILAYE, providing access to drinking water is not limited to producing and distributing water. It also means ensuring that the water made available to people meets the requirements for quality, health safety and reliability expected of a modern public service.

Through this mission, OMILAYE helps protect users' health, strengthen community confidence and guarantee a sustainable service for households, schools, health centres and local businesses.

A constant requirement across the service chain

Water quality is monitored at every stage of the service: from the source through to the distribution points, taking in production facilities, treatment units, reservoirs and distribution networks.

This supervision makes it possible to identify any anomalies, implement the necessary corrective action and ensure the water distributed continues to meet the applicable requirements.

Quality control is thus part of a continuous approach of prevention, vigilance and improvement of the service provided to rural populations.

Regular, structured testing

OMILAYE operates a monitoring system based on regular checks, sampling, analysis and operational supervision of the drinking water systems it runs.

These checks make it possible to assess the key parameters relating to the potability of the water, the safety of the service and the proper functioning of production and distribution facilities.

The results of this monitoring help guide technical decisions, strengthen the maintenance of installations and improve the overall performance of the service.

A mission delivered by technical expertise

Water quality control draws on qualified teams and specialist expertise.

The staff involved in this mission oversee analyses, supervise facilities, identify risks, escalate alerts and coordinate corrective action where necessary.

This organisation gives OMILAYE a rigorous approach founded on technical command, accountability and responsiveness.

Preventing risks and safeguarding the service

Water quality control plays a decisive role in preventing health risks.

By regularly supervising the systems it operates, OMILAYE helps safeguard the water it distributes, prevent situations that could affect service quality and protect the populations it serves.

This constant vigilance also helps preserve water assets, ensure infrastructure is well operated and sustain the public drinking water service.

Informing users and building confidence

Water quality is central to the trust between OMILAYE and the population.

Through its field teams, the company raises users' awareness of good practice in using and storing drinking water at home. This helps preserve water quality after distribution and encourages responsible behaviour within households.

Information, listening and closeness to communities also make it possible to better address users' concerns and consolidate a relationship of trust around the service.

A contribution to better living conditions

Water quality control contributes directly to improving living conditions in rural areas.

Drinking water that is safe and regularly tested supports people's health, reduces the risks associated with consuming unsafe water and underpins community development.

This mission sits squarely within the ambition of universal, sustainable and equitable access to drinking water, in line with national priorities and Sustainable Development Goal 6.

Our commitment

Through water quality control, OMILAYE reaffirms its commitment to providing rural populations with a public service that is reliable, safe and compliant with quality requirements.

The company works every day to deliver quality drinking water, strengthen the health safety of the service, maintain users' confidence and make a lasting contribution to the wellbeing of the communities it serves.
