Utilities
Utilities companies operate in a challenging and demanding environment – our integrated service offering can help boost efficiency and reduce costs.
The challenges facing utilities companies are forever on the increase. Along with more regulation, there is the need to balance compliance with rigorous regulatory frameworks, and high quality delivery with customer service provision. Systems and networks, meanwhile, must be flexible, providing sustainable solutions that address environmental objectives.
So far, we have delivered projects in the water, gas, electricity, waste, energy and district heating sectors, with a deep understanding of the challenges involved. Water companies, for example, are reacting to a future of increased competition brought about by market reform for non-domestic and domestic customers, with a focus on total expenditure (TOTEX) on assets and preparations for PR19 requirements. Large scale investment to reduce wastage, mitigate flood risk and water shortages must be made whilst demonstrating efficiency and innovation to reduce delivery costs.
We help our utilities clients at both a strategic and tactical level: delivering discrete projects and offering broader organisational and structural reviews. Working with an intelligent partner like Mace can help utility businesses drive value for money through every aspect of their operations.
