The Halo Effect

Blue Tick re-accreditation: Halo maintains trusted water monitoring standard



The Halo Advantage: Re-Certified for 2025–2027
We are proud to confirm that Halo Systems has been re-certified for Blue Tick Data Management Accreditation for the 2025–2027 period. This continued recognition underscores our commitment to providing nationally recognised, high-quality, and compliant water management solutions.
What is the ‘Blue Tick’ Accreditation Programme?
Developed by IrrigationNZ, the Blue Tick Accreditation Programme is a rigorous framework that ensures accredited providers meet the highest standards in water measurement. For permit holders and councils, it’s a clear signal of trust, compliance, and reliability - giving confidence that services align with regulatory requirements and industry best practice.
These standards have never been more important. Under the Resource Management (Measurement and Reporting of Water Takes) Amendment Regulations 2020, permit holders taking 5 litres per second (L/s) or more must measure water use every 15 minutes and electronically submit these records daily to their regional council. Historically, data accuracy has been a challenge, with reports highlighting “poor and irregular quality” information supplied to councils - limiting its usefulness for compliance and catchment management (Ministry for the Environment, Measurement and Reporting of Water Takes factsheet).
By meeting accredited standards, we provide unmatched assurance, delivering reliable, high-quality data that simplifies compliance, supports environmental stewardship, and builds lasting confidence for permit holders.
Why Blue Tick Data Management Accreditation Matters
- Assurance of quality - Accreditation confirms your water data is managed to the highest industry standards, aligned with national codes of practice and regulatory requirements. With daily, 15-minute data reporting a legal requirement, Blue Tick accreditation ensures your systems are accurate, reliable, and audit-ready.
- Trusted by councils - Councils recognise and prefer accredited providers, making compliance simpler and acceptance smoother.
- Future-proofed data - Accredited systems align with National Environmental Monitoring Standards (NEMS), ensuring your data remains “fit for purpose” as regulations evolve.
