Digital Transformation and Productivity in the Energy Sector

Meeting the Zero-Carbon Challenge

The global transition to zero-carbon energy systems faces a critical challenge: installation demand significantly exceeds available resources. Unlike other industries where marketing takes center stage, the energy sector's primary focus lies in maximising productivity, reducing operational time, and accelerating staff competency. Organisations must overcome key bottlenecks in their lead-to-cash processes, particularly those stemming from travel requirements, administrative overhead, and the shortage of qualified installers.

Digital Solutions for Process Optimisation

Digital transformation of lead-to-cash processes enables organisations to complete projects and process invoices more efficiently, significantly improving throughput and resource utilisation. Through Remote Visual Experience (RVX) technology, companies can streamline several critical processes that traditionally required on-site presence:

Remote visual assistance

  • Initial Customer Consultations and Site Assessments: Conduct comprehensive virtual walk-throughs and sales discussions
  • Technical Surveys and Inspections: Perform detailed remote evaluations
  • Quality Assurance: Address post-installation issues and conduct snagging reviews
  • Customer Support: Provide immediate post-installation assistance
  • Emergency Response: Deliver rapid remote troubleshooting and guidance
