Houston, TX – November 10, 2020 – As utilities seek to gain the greatest benefits from the new innovations in SAP S/4HANA® with the least disruption to business continuity, Utegration, an SAP silver partner, announces a strategic alliance with The Natuvion Group.
As a data integrator for the utilities industry, Natuvion perfectly complements Utegration. Natuvion is a global SAP gold partner and a pilot partner of the SAP S/4HANA Selective Data Transition Engagement working group. With its deep expertise in the utility industry and SAP technology, Utegration is uniquely poised to help utilities take advantage of the changes available in SAP S/4HANA. Its Utility4U solution offers an end-to-end utility business process platform for growth that is built on SAP S/4HANA and integrates with SAP Cloud offerings like SAP Analytics Cloud, SAP Service Cloud, and other cloud solutions through SAP Cloud Platform Integration Suite. Utility4U is available via Greenfield, Brownfield, or hybrid implementation models. Natuvion’s selective data transition approach for SAP S/4HANA helps companies leverage their current investments in data and processes, streamlining the migration to SAP S/4HANA for all implementation models, whether the move is from SAP or third party systems.
Utegration is well known and respected in the energy and utilities sector, and currently serves over 50 clients in North America. Through this alliance, the companies combine tools, skills, and industry know-how to ensure their utility clients are confident in the technical path and value delivered by the business transformation investment.
“Utilities are facing pressure to transform their businesses in the face of greater customer and regulatory demands. What they need is a platform that will deliver digitalization, personalization, transparency, and speed,” said Bart Thielbar, President and CEO of Utegration. “Simultaneously keeping the energy and water flowing, while optimizing the benefits of moving to SAP S/4HANA is the objective of every migration. While Utegration brings the industry expertise and accelerators to get the greatest financial and operational benefits of SAP S/4HANA for utilities, Natuvion offers data preparation, data transformation, and information stewardship to streamline the migration process.”
Utegration will use these tools when executing a selective data transition for SAP S/4HANA. Natuvion will provide architects and the most up-to-date training and best practices, helping Utegration increase the number of successfully delivered projects.
