Energy-Efficiency Firm Powers Up Business With Business Management Software

Tags:
business management

Overview Current Energy provides energy-efficiency consulting, services, and products to residential and commercial customers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area of Texas. Expanding rapidly into new lines of business and geographic regions, Current Energy found that QuickBooks accounting software limited the company's potential. Current Energy wanted to combine robust intercompany accounting functions, its point-of-sale and field-service management solutions, and top-notch business intelligence and reporting capabilities. Working with Microsoft Gold Certified Partner Inscio, Current Energy implemented Microsoft Dynamics GP business management software and integrated it with Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System and other business systems to improve cross-selling and customer care, provide better visibility into all levels of the organization, and reduce monthly closing times.
