About Us
History
Even if you haven't had any direct dealings with us before, we're anything but new to the field. Our staff of senior analysts and consultants ALL have decades of detailed technical knowledge and hands-on experience. The class and quality of insights we provide are a world apart from most other technology planning and consulting firms. That's because we don't just conduct studies and write reports -- our staff has actually been there and done it.
Knowledge
Over the past 25 years, our analysts have conducted more than 10,000 market surveys and research interviews with hundreds of utilities and scores of suppliers, consultants and third-party organizations with energy and utility market interests. This effort has resulted in what is arguably the most comprehensive database of information and statistics on the footprint of utility automation and information technology in North America. Nothing else even comes close!
Experience
Each of our staff members has at least 20-25 years of experience in the evaluation, planning, design, development, implementation and support of automation/IT solutions throughout the energy and utility landscape. This includes everything from SCADA/EMS/DMS, RTUs, IEDs and Substation Automation to AMI, AMR and MDM; Mapping and GIS; CIS, CRM & Billing; Outage Management, Work Management and Field Force Management; and Demand Response, DG and Security -- virtually everything automation/IT-related.
Independence, Objectivity & Confidentiality
You can be 100% confident that you will be working with and receiving advice from an organization that is entirely objective and is in no way affiliated with, owned wholly or partially owned by, or representative of ANY supplier(s) of products or services for the industries and markets we serve.
Results!
When you need guidance that delivers tangible results that hourly fees and open-ended objectives cannot, call us for a no obligation discussion. You'll find us affordable, easy to work with and ready to help you achieve your goals and objectives... know the way.
