Discover the features of Microsoft Dynamics 365 that benefit utility and energy companies, helping them enhance operations, boost customer service, and improve regulatory compliance:
Field Service Management
Optimise the scheduling, dispatch, and tracking of engineers and maintenance teams with AI-assisted routing and real-time updates: ideal for managing remote infrastructure like substations, pipelines, or smart meters.
Customer Service Automation
Deliver responsive, multi-channel customer support (phone, chat, email, self-service portal) to resolve service issues, manage outages, and handle billing queries more efficiently.
Work Order Automation
Automatically generate, assign, and monitor work orders for inspections, repairs, or new installations, ensuring teams are working from standardised processes and reducing admin.
Finance & Billing Integration
Connect with or replace legacy billing systems to manage meter data, calculate usage charges, generate invoices, and automate reminders for overdue accounts.
AI & IoT Integration
Act on real-time data from smart grids, meters, or sensors. Enable predictive analytics to anticipate faults, optimise supply, or reduce energy waste.
Resource Scheduling Optimisation
Balance workforce availability, skills and geography to minimise travel time, improve first-time fix rates, and ensure SLAs are met.
Project Operations
Manage the end-to-end lifecycle of infrastructure upgrades, new developments, or renewable energy deployments, with centralised tracking of resources, budgets, and timelines.
Unified Data & Power BI Reporting
Create dashboards that bring together operational, financial, and customer data for real-time visibility, helping leaders make informed decisions across the organisation.
