Energy and utilities
Interval data arrives late, arrives wrong, and gets restated. Everything downstream has to survive that without quietly changing last month's numbers.
Metering data is not a clean stream. Reads arrive out of order, corrections land weeks later, and settlement depends on getting the restatement right rather than on getting the first pass right. A pipeline that overwrites is a pipeline that will make a board report change after the board has read it.
The reporting audience is also different. A community choice aggregator answers to a public board and to a regulator, which means a number on a dashboard is a number someone may be asked to defend in a public meeting. That raises the bar on lineage from 'nice to have' to the thing the whole architecture is arranged around.
What you get
The promise, kept honest. Direction, not invented numbers.
- 01
Number you publish once and can defend six months later
- 02
Settlement and forecasting that survive a versioned, corrected feed
- 03
A single path from any dashboard number back to the read that produced it
The constraints
The parts that make this industry different. If one of these sounds like your problem, that is the conversation to have.
- Late-arriving and restated interval reads — corrections handled as versions, not overwrites
- Settlement accuracy, where being fast and wrong costs more than being slow and right
- Forecasting against weather, which means the model is wrong sometimes by design and the system has to say so
- Customer energy usage data — privacy obligations distinct from the billing relationship
- Public-board and regulator accountability: a figure is a figure someone may have to defend
How we deliver
The engineering gates that separate a demo from a deployment in this industry.
- Corrections handled as versions, never in-place overwrites — restatements become part of history
- Forecast error surfaced honestly, not tuned until it stops counting
- Lineage arranged so a public board question ends at a source row, not a slide
Call us when
- Reporting is a person, a spreadsheet, and a deadline
- A restated read silently changed a number that had already been published
- Forecasting exists but nobody can say how wrong it usually is
