Invoice Management
Solid energy management starts here.

Invoice ManagementBuilding a solid foundation for your corporate energy program requires effective and accurate data management. We collect and organize important invoice, contract and facility data for easy access and reporting through our proprietary web-based system, Energy Zone®.

Avoid over-payment with expert invoice validation.

Verifying the accuracy of your supplier invoices is a prudent step in any energy management process and one that can yield immediate return. As an important part of our data management service, we apply a series of systematic validation checks to search for errors based on anomalies related to usage and cost patterns for each facility type. Invoices that fail validation checks are flagged and evaluated by a trained energy analyst. Irregularities identified by this process routinely include higher-than-average usage or dollar amounts, meter misreads, duplicate invoices, overlapping service dates and utility billing errors. When invoice discrepancies arise, we work directly with the supplier on your behalf to ensure that all invoices are corrected and erroneous fees avoided.

Save time and money with aggregated payments.

We also offer aggregated comprehensive payment solution which helps you reduce the cost of paying invoices by aggregating payment obligations into a single funding request. This solution optimizes supplier payment issues to ensure your company is safeguarded from late payment fees and numerous other risks that are involved in energy and commodity supply.

Tariff and Tax Analysis
Don't leave valuable savings on the table.

Tariff and Tax AnalysisIf your energy account has not been reviewed within the past year for appropriate tariff services and tax liabilities, there is a good chance you are missing out on valuable savings. Regulatory markets and tax codes are ever changing, yet the tariffs and taxes that stem from these codes are not readily transparent, which leaves companies struggling to sustain a focus on analyzing and validating these costs. Furthermore, modeling tariffs and taxes can be a daunting effort for A/P analysts without energy experience.

We maintain a database of over 10,000 utility tariff models and understand tax waivers available around the country. We integrate this information with your invoice and contract data to quickly identify savings and ensure optimization.
