Utility Management Software

Research has shown that monitoring and targeting the use of utilities can help achieve savings of between 5% and 10% of annual costs. In some cases savings of 25% can be expected through the continued application of these techniques.

Utility Management Software enables you to monitor and therefore control energy usage.

Electricity, Gas, Water, Oil, Solid Fuel or other utilities may be monitored using the package. Monitoring and Targeting allows easy identification of waste or overspend and allows savings to be tracked.

Supplier EDI or data files, BEMs and meter logger data may be automatically imported. Full data validation, tolerance checks and alarms provide all necessary management information. Standard or user configured reports can be presented in both graphical and tabular fashion with options to automatically email to site or view through a Web browser.

Data input may be manual or automatic. EDI, spreadsheets and Web download files provided by your Supplier may be automatically imported using the wide range of import routines available. Full data validation is provided for both manual and automatic data entry. Tolerance checks highlight where invoices may be in error or where usage or cost varies significantly from past performance. Half-hourly profile data may also be imported from BEMs, Web downloads and data loggers.

Full range of analysis

The package covers all the fundamental analyses required for Monitoring and Targeting including:

  • Trend analysis and comparison with previous performance.
  • Comparison with targets or benchmarks.
  • Ranking of sites according to performance.
  • At a more advanced level, the software also incorporates CUSUM, Regression-Analysis and Degree-Day adjustment methods to provide closer monitoring of waste and savings.

High quality reports

A comprehensive library is provided to cover all standard reporting requirements. All reports are designed to show results clearly and to a high standard of presentation, allowing you to get your message across. These reports may be seamlessly exported to Excel for further analysis or printed by batch.

Using this interface, individual sites (e.g. schools, depots, stores) have direct access to their data.

Custom Reports

A custom reports feature is included to address special data presentation requirements. These custom reports may be created by the user or provided by SystemsLink. Configuration is easy with a knowledge of Excel being the only requirement.

Distribute by e-mail

Reports may be sent out automatically by email in Excel format, saving time and effort, and prompting quick corrective action in the case of faults. Groups of sites may be emailed by batch.

Contract Analysis

Based on offers the package provides analysis to evaluate the best price. The offers are simply pasted into a spreadsheet structure as they arrive from the supplier and quickly evaluated. A full library of Use of System and Loss Adjustment figures for all regions allows all types of Electricity contract to be evaluated.
