Find stability with expert software support for the energy and utilities industries
Managing volatility and market shifts is critical for energy and utility providers, but when it comes to application support for core ERP software, instability can't be part of the equation. Rimini Street Support Services include a better enterprise software solutions model to help power client success. Unlike software vendor support, there are no forced upgrades to stay fully supported, and no incident escalations or delays. Rimini Street delivers integrated application management services and ERP support, and is the trusted, single-source partner of many in the energy and utilities industries.
Advance energy and utilities investment strategies
Energy and utilities organizations face substantial challenges. They include changing competitive threats; complying with increased government, environmental, security, and safety regulations; and funding significant capital investment requirements on thinning profit margins — all while adapting to and driving new digital technologies.
