SAP S/4HANA Utilities & SAP IS-U Consulting

Energy suppliers and grid operators run their core business on SAP IS-U and SAP S/4HANA Utilities. We support you with deep know-how of the utilities data model, the processes around billing and market communication, and the technical integration into your wider landscape.

What we deliver

  • Strategic and technical consulting for SAP S/4HANA Utilities, on premise and in RISE with SAP
  • Transition from SAP IS-U to S/4HANA Utilities, including system consolidation (merging two utilities systems into one)
  • Billing and invoicing, tariff construction, rate categories and variant programs, troubleshooting
  • Market communication and IDEX (IDEXCH2), smart metering and head-end system (HES) integration
  • SAP Customer Engagement and the replacement of SAP CRM / Customer Interaction Center
  • Customer self-service and energy customer portals
  • Implementation of regulatory requirements in the Swiss and German energy markets

Regulation in the Swiss energy market

The Swiss energy market is changing fast: the new electricity law (Mantelerlass), local electricity communities (LEG) and virtual self-consumption communities (vZEV), dynamic tariffs and new storage concepts all have to be reflected in SAP. We have implemented these requirements in S/4HANA Utilities – including the authorization concepts, Fiori apps, transports and go-live support they need.

Typical questions we help answer

  • How do we move from IS-U to S/4HANA Utilities without disrupting billing?
  • How can new regulatory processes be implemented with standard functionality first?
  • How do we connect a new head-end system or meter data management securely?
  • How do we replace SAP CRM with SAP Customer Engagement and keep the integration with S/4HANA Utilities stable?
