Energy Deregulation
Many states are rewriting their regulations to increase competition in the
natural gas and electric industries. The goal of the revisions is to allow
consumers to choose from whom they buy their natural gas and electric power (as
they can choose their long distance phone company). These changes have produced
a need for industry-specific software applications and outsourced services to
perform customer service, energy management, and billing and collections
functions. To meet these needs, EnSite leveraged its extensive domain knowledge
of energy, technology, and transaction management to create complete back office
software applications and service offerings for energy companies and service
providers.
EnSite Safari Suite®
EnSite’s hallmark application is EnSite Safari Suite® (“Safari”). Safari is a
powerful multi-commodity, component-based software solution that manages the
entire life cycle of the consumer. It is designed to enable growth, integration,
and operating efficiency for energy companies and service providers through a
scalable platform, a modular structure, and task automation. Safari provides
access to information in one system to improve financial and operational
decisions. It allows energy companies and service providers to reduce
transaction costs, improve cash flow, preserve margins, and expand their
business without expanding their staff.
The Suite includes modules for sales automation, customer relationship
management, energy commodity management, contract documents and pricing,
multi-commodity and service billing, tariff analysis and savings reporting,
consumption monitoring, and accounts receivable, accounts payable, and
collections management.
Strategy
EnSite’s strategy is to maintain our vision and focus on energy transaction
software and services. EnSite offers hosting and transaction management services
using our Safari software. EnSite has also initiated the development of a
customer self-help web interface to further expand our offerings in 2005. To
improve our customers’ operating efficiencies, EnSite continues to interface and
integrate with existing and proven wholesale, metering, electric balancing and
settlement, and/or credit applications. In the future, we will diversify our
customer base by adding new industry segments, such as fuel oil, water, and
communications.
Converging Markets
EnSite’s current clients include retail energy marketers and energy service
companies. EnSite, supported by its synergies with HunTel Systems, is positioned
to benefit from on-going deregulation of energy markets and future convergence
with telecommunications services. EnSite continues to expand Safari to help
provide our customers with greater efficiencies and the ability to stay ahead of
industry trends.
Who We Are
EnSite, headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, provides leading-edge software
solutions and transaction management services to energy companies and service
providers serving consumers in the restructuring energy marketplace. The
industry is experiencing a major evolution due to deregulation, dynamic market
participation, increasing credit requirements, and rising energy prices.
EnSite’s products and services meet the needs of energy companies that are
continually searching for ways to remain competitive in the face of these
changes.
