ACTIONABLE DATA
Utility and energy companies collect mounds of data, but many are limited in their ability to access and utilize their data. Too much time may be spent cleaning or organizing data across departments, leaving little to no time to make insights-driven decisions that can transform customer experiences.
Our governance strategies ensure your data can be utilized for improved decision-making and operational efficiencies. Services include centralized data sourcing for test cycles, data conversions, data cleansing, migration, business intelligence and analytics, reporting, and custom dashboards for a bird’s eye view of actionable information relevant to your business. Veracity puts intelligence at your fingertips and helps you take immediate action.
DATA & BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE
We help establish methodologies and procedures for managing your data. An enterprise-wide governance strategy ensures your decisions are made with reliable data, giving you the confidence that you’ll meet your business goals.
CENTRALIZED DATA SOURCING
Centralized data sourcing helps you eliminate data silos, establishing a central location and integrating all information into a single, shareable source. Centralized data sourcing minimizes the time spent reviewing various data sets and improves the quality of inaccurate or incomplete data. When successfully implemented, this process improves opportunities for enterprise-wide collaboration and goals can be achieved more quickly.
PREDICTIVE MODELS
Use data to spot trends and better predict customer behaviors. Predictive models can help you adjust your business strategies in real-time, responding to customer and stakeholder needs before issues arise.
DASHBOARDS & VISUALIZATION
Our dashboard and visualization tools make it easy to consume and utilize critical information at every level of the enterprise.
TESTING & OUTCOME MANAGEMENT
Testing and measuring the performance of your new technologies, upgrades and integrations ensures their successful implementation, and that they continue to work over time. Our utility team's extensive experience in Quality Assurance (QA), User Acceptance Testing (UAT), System Integration Testing (SIT), Test Automation methodologies and Change Management programming have helped energy and power companies improve the customer experience, save time and money, reduce defects and ensure the clients' teams are adhering to best practices.
EXPERIENCE
Veracity recently completed an 8-year IT and business transformation plan for a large, regional energy provider. Our team replaced key legacy systems, including meter data management (MDM) and customer care and billing (CC&B), and provided implementation, vendor management, project management, testing, merger and acquisition change management, and reporting solutions.
COLLABORATION
QA, UAT and SIT should never operate in a silo, so we work collaboratively with developers, project managers and other cross-functional teams to provide leadership and best practices throughout the project.
AUTOMATION
Test Automation can provide significant efficiencies through the use of automation software to control and improve test execution. Our Test Automation methodologies provide a testing strategy and governance framework to ensure your automation practices are consistent with your company's goals and are utilized enterprise-wide.
CHANGE MANAGEMENT
When change happens, such as with mergers and acquisitions, there is a lot at stake across your entire organization. Our Change Management services help you ensure a comprehensive, detailed plan is in place and that change is introduced and managed for all employees, including your field workforce. To ensure long-term, successful outcomes, part of our proven Change Management solution is to provide you a detailed roadmap, training and tools for continual communication.
