Solution

A modern cloud CIS solution with a flexible and holistic approach

Smartflex supports utility customer operations to meet emerging business requirements and challenging customer expectations. We empower utilities in their digital transformation processes and offer them, the best customer experience for their end customers.
SLIDE GENERAL

Smartflex is a best–in–class holistic solution with a CIS at its core that has been expanded in three dimensions: Meter Data Management (MDM), Digital Customer Experience (DCX), and Mobile Workforce Management (MWM) which are the key capabilities to ensure the success of any utility business.

SMARTFLEX HOLISTIC CIS

MDM

The solution allows utilities to collect and manage large volumes of interval and scalar meter data (consumption, events, and usage aggregation) through a gateway with head-end systems. In addition, Smartflex ensures the accuracy of the data through validation, estimation, and edition processes.

Smartflex’s MDM boosts features required for Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) deployment

CIS

The solution supports the management of commercial processes, including sales, customer service, rate setups, program configuration, billing, administrative order management, payments, and collections.

Smartflex’s CIS enhances customer experience through a holistic approach that goes beyond traditional meter-to-cash processes

DCX

The solution includes a customer engagement center that consolidates information, transactions, processes, and options to manage several aspects of the relationship with the service provider. This layer includes a customer self-service portal, online sales, and a set of web-services that utility/telecom companies can use to create digital ecosystems.

The DCX layer strengthens end-to-end journeys to meet customer expectations across digital interactions

MWM

The solution’s features include demand and work planning support, mobile work orders, field crew required asset management, and third-party operation support. Through these functionalities, the solution manages main field processes to optimize resources and complete different requests made by customers.
