A vast majority of telecom tower companies still rely on manual energy bill data collection and maintaining this data in excel. Consequently, they face many challenges regularly which not only require them to do manual effort but at times, compromises the quality of the bill data. The lack of a digitized and automated energy management solution leads to increased paper bills present in multiple formats and languages thereby raising the number of errors as well as inaccuracies while uploading the data.
A digitized and automated grid energy management solution enables telcos and towercos to fetch data directly from the vendor system. The inbuilt configurable rules predefined in the smart system validates and overall improves the end-to-end time of bill receipt, loading, processing, reconciliation as well as helps process payments faster.
