Description:
Providing More Flexibility in Engaging Consumers
It is a secure and flexible portal, integrated (standards-based) with the Gridstream® Command Center head end as well as the Gridstream Meter Data Management (MDM) solutions. The application draws data from the CIS system and marries it with the AMI data to provide your end consumers with valuable insight into their usage, comparisons against weather and similar properties, as well as tools to help engage them on a regular basis. SDC also gives your Customer Support teams the same view into the data as your end customer allowing for shorter customer calls and higher customer satisfaction ratings. SDC is coupled with push messaging alerts, and capabilities to facilitate electronic and pre-pay billing.
In addition to electric energy, the application is also capable of reporting information from water and gas meters. We know how important it is to give your customer a complete integrated experience, SDC is fully branded to your utility standards to give your customer the same experience as your utility website.
The SmartData Connect platform is a proven driver of utility benefits including increased customer satisfaction, quantifiable energy savings, and participation in peak demand management programs.
