Our expertise
Customer-centric platforms
Build intelligent, customer-centric platforms that drive engagement across the utilities customer lifecycle—from EV adoption to demand response. These solutions enable seamless enrollment, personalized digital experiences and real-time interaction. Utilities benefit from increased program participation, reduced cost to serve and a future-ready foundation built for scalability, agility and AI-driven innovation.
OT/IT modernization
Modernize and integrate operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) systems to enhance reliability, resilience and real-time decision-making. Our proven approach reduces operational risk, strengthens cybersecurity and lowers structural costs—laying the foundation for a flexible, future-ready utility that can meet evolving regulatory, customer and grid demands.
Data solutions
Unlock the full value of distributed data by delivering scalable platforms and intelligent products that accelerate time to insight. Leveraging modern approaches like data mesh, we integrate systems such as Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), Meter Data Management Systems (MDMS) and Customer Relationship Management (CRM) solutions to power everything from load forecasting to customer analytics and smart asset management.
Clean energy and DERMS
Enhance grid visibility and control through custom solutions that support Distributed Energy Resource Management Systems (DERMS). Our deep domain expertise and advanced data science capabilities enable accurate forecasting and orchestration of distributed clean energy assets—solar, wind, battery and hydroelectric. The result: grid stability, regulatory alignment and reliable service in a decarbonizing landscape.
