Energy Broker CRM


Energy broker CRM that compared energy prices and automated a significant chunk of administration workload.

Requirements


A commercial energy broker for UK businesses approached PSP-IT to design and develop a new fully-operational CRM to be used in their day to day operations and replace their current web-based tool. This new CRM was to be used to manage all client information and use all the internal information to help the team find the best prices for all their clients in a much more time efficient manner.

The client wanted to digitise their current after recognising it was time-consuming and inefficient; resulting in high running costs. The purpose of the system was to automate large chunks of the processes, leading to drastically less admin time and a more productive workforce.

After consulting with the client and understanding their processes and challenges, we identified these key requirements:


• A user-friendly CRM system to manage all aspects of the client's business
• The ability to update the fields within the CRM per user preference
• Built with integration with web in mind as this will be in a further phase
• Ability to keep client & supplier data secure as it's all kept within the client's network
• Accurately calculate billing and estimated readings

Solution


The initial phase of the development consisted of PSP producing a functional specification to outline all the requirements for the new CRM. The specification covered, in detail, the technical and development requirements to build a new Customer Relationship Management System (CRM) for the client.


Detailed within the specification were the fields: pages; workflow and logic, required within the CRM. The functional specification was handed over for review and sign off. Once both parties had signed the document, PSP began development.


PSP-IT determined its modular Vision CRM had the capabilities to be adapted to meet the specific needs of the industry. Remodelling the already powerful CRM meant PSP were able to build a fully functioning and bespoke system which met every aspect and detail of the client’s specifications. Adapting PSP’s very own modular means every client has a unique CRM, therefore no client will ever have the same Vision.


The easy to use system compares the prices of energy rates across the sector on all meter types and allows staff to accurately keep suppliers and customers up to date.

Benefits


The new CRM system eradicates the task of manually tracking invoices and tacks every aspect of their service. Resulting in the Vision Energy CRM which saves time, increases productivity and improves communication within the workforce.
