Energy and utilities

Energy and utility companies manage thousands of assets spread over a large territory, a large workforce and regulated tariffs. Their systems have to show what each asset costs to own and maintain, and where the money of the investment programme goes.

Typical tasks

• Fixed asset accounting for networks, stations and equipment.
• Planning and accounting of maintenance and repairs.
• Procurement and stock of materials and spare parts across many warehouses.
• Capital construction and investment projects: budget, contracts and progress.
• Payroll for a large staff with shifts, field work and allowances.
• Budgeting and reporting to the shareholder and the regulator.

What we deliver

• Implementation of 1C:ERP and 1C:ERP Holding Management for companies with a branch structure.
• Integration of accounting with billing and technical systems.
• 1C:TOIR for the maintenance and repair of equipment, networks and buildings.
• Consolidated budgeting and reporting for a company with many branches.
• Document management for contracts, orders and internal approvals.
• Migration from older systems and support after go-live.

Where to start

Often the first step is an asset register that accounting and the technical service both trust: one list of assets with one set of identifiers. Maintenance planning, depreciation and investment reporting are then built on it.

Our clients in this sector include a state energy company and a municipal utility.
