Data Hosting

Value, Security and Access

Information requirements and challenges facing utility organizations today continue to expand. Executive management and customers expect better service at lower costs. An increasingly competitive market and stricter regulatory requirements are driving utilities to make their operations more efficient, while an increasingly complex infrastructure requires more monitoring and maintenance. Many utilities are looking to technology to help meet these challenges, but with budget constraints, reductions in staff, and evolving data management applications, it is difficult to keep pace. As a result, smart operators are recognizing the many advantages of seeking support from outside sources.

Many organizations currently outsource accounting-type applications, such as payroll and human resources. Now outsourcing the maintenance of engineering and operations data - including maps, drawings and tabular data - is becoming a valid alternative that can reduce overall costs while enhancing the ability to access and analyze this information internally.

We have been providing data hosting services to the pipeline industry for many years, and now we are expanding this service to include other utility organizations. With a solid foundation in technology and an understanding of utility industry requirements, we can provide cost-effective data hosting solutions that can range from providing data center services for storing utility data to work order posting and routine data maintenance.
