Customer Information Systems (CIS) and CRM Project Resources for the Utility Industry


Invaluable information and services to help your utility navigate through CIS/CRM selection, contract negotiations and/or implementation.


Utilities have a variety of self-help and staffed services to choose from:

  • Our CIS/CRM Self-Assessment Toolset (C-SAT) helps your utility walk through a proven methodology for selecting a new billing/CIS system. (The toolsets are customized for the following: water utilities, investor owned utilities, municipal utilities, and electric cooperatives.)

  • CIS/CRM Business Process Mapping, to assure you get what you need and want from new technology (and don't pay too much for it).

  • Our Selection Service helps your utility find the right solution that most closely matches your needs.

  • Our Contract Negotiation Service helps you acquire a CIS and/or CRM for the best price and under contract terms that are in the best interests of your utility. Having been through many CIS/CRM implementation projects over the years, UPN has hands-on experience in knowing what to ask for, and not accept, during contract negotiations.

  • Our Quality Assurance Assistance for Implementation helps your utility through the CIS implementation process, which saves your utility both time and money.

  • Our annual 'Best Practices in Utility CIS/CRM Selection and Implementation Workshop"

  • Our Project Staffing Service provides you with our experts who solely focus on assisting you with either your Selection Project and/or your Implementation Project. These experts know what to do, and what not to do, when selecting, negotiating and implementing technology.


Please call 978-264-0085 for more information on any of these services.
