Vordel and Utilities
Managing services at the heart of the Utility business
In the face of dynamically changing markets, characterised by deregulation; increased competition; greater consumer choice and escalating fuel costs, utilities have had to build highly adaptive and open IT-platforms to ensure the survival of their businesses. SOA has provided the IT blueprint of choice for many utility providers forced to unbundle their activities, open their businesses to new competitors and collaborate with external third parties to deliver new services into the marketplace.
An emphasis on a services oriented approach enables utility providers to compete on price, customer service and the delivery of innovative products such as smart metering and ultimately will be a key enabler of the smart grid, where all devices can be metered leading to collaborative energy consumption and improved business efficiencies.
