Business impacts

  • Customer satisfaction

    Utilities customers expect personalized, relevant content at every touchpoint. Outdated systems create fragmented journeys that erode trust and satisfaction. Deliver tailored communications to strengthen engagement and boost CSAT.

  • Sustainability

    Consumers want to conserve energy and support sustainability goals. Standard utility communications often focus only on usage, missing chances to influence behavior. Deliver targeted, educational messages that inspire sustainable consumption.

  • Employee productivity

    Employees often waste time searching for data scattered across systems and departments, delaying resolutions and frustrating customers. Unify information and enable quick access to boost efficiency, speed service, and improve satisfaction.

  • Customer insights

    Employees need complete visibility into customer history, preferences, and behaviors to deliver efficient, sustainable service. Eliminate data silos to integrate information sources to provide a unified, real-time customer profile.

  • Security and compliance

    Utility teams need customer data, but unrestricted access exposes sensitive information and creates compliance risks. Apply role-based permissions to safeguard privacy and enforce privacy policies.

According to J.D. Power, overall business customer satisfaction with electric utilities has reached an all-time low driven by a combination of steadily rising prices and a perceived lack of concern for their needs, support, and engagement.[1]

Furthermore J.D. Power points out that, “unless utilities bring their customers along, utilities will struggle to achieve their clean energy goals they have put in place for the coming decades.”[2] The key word in this statement is “along,” which signals that the sustainability journey is built on a relationship between the utility, its employees, and customers.
