Bureau Services - Overview
Fast growing or very large organisations are increasingly being overloaded with electricity & gas billing problems with many finding it an almost impossible task to keep in total control of their estate.
With the new CRC obligations to report accurately your energy usage this has brought an extra dimension into the need to have the bills independently monitored and checked.
The lack of such measures not only widens the opportunity of an incorrect bill going unnoticed, but also enables poorly performing sites to continue wasting energy.
By outsourcing this to those who have dedicated time and experience then this enables the client to control their estate effectively and to focus on highlighting & targeting poorly performing sites and so reduce the chances of inaccurate billing taking place.
The requirements of a Bureau will vary by the level of involvement needed but is so effective it is found to be self-financing very quickly.
By using DEP to deal with your data processing & management needs this will free up your time to deliver the results that matter.
In our experience the number of incorrect bills has risen to upto 4%, so for most groups this can equate to a substantial amount of potential overpayments being made each and every month.
Faults are largely due to a combination of the suppliers billing systems being inadequate to cope with increased numbers and complex billing methods and coupled with the reduced number of billing staff at each supplier.
