Complex Billing, Simplified.
The utility CIS plays a critical role, essentially serving as a cash register and customer data master. But it often isn’t agile enough to meet the changing needs of today’s grid, especially when it comes to billing complex rates and programs…until now.
Capabilities
More Control. More Functionality. More Accurately.
Operationalize and bill customers on new, complex rates that the existing CIS can’t handle, like Time-of-Use, real-time pricing, large load tariffs or sub-metered EV programs.
Rapidly operationalize new time-varying rates (often deployed initially as pilots) in a streamlined process outside of the existing customer information and billing systems.
View and handle events and exceptions during the billing process, including insight into the exception, the reason or message for the error, and the ability to resolve any system errors.
Benefits
Simplify and streamline your billing process.
Avoid costly and resource-consuming CIS replacements or upgrades by providing a powerful, yet flexible, add-on billing engine.
Simplify the journey of implementing and billing advanced rates, like Time-Varying Rates, with an add-on engine that enhances and complements the utility CIS.
Native, in-engine interval based calculations eliminates the reliance on separately configured systems to create billing determinants, increasing accuracy and speed of results.
Automate existing processes and remove potential calculation errors, improving outcomes for utility stakeholders and customers alike.

“CIS systems are highly integrated and complex systems…they are not easy to change when new innovation is needed. If not done correctly, it can have adverse effects for both the utility and the customer.”
