Synopsis

Energy trading, transaction and risk management (ETRM) software solutions are the highly specialized systems used by companies engaged in the production, buying, selling, moving and managing of energy commodities. With more than 70 firms offering ETRM solutions, from established companies servicing the entirety of the energy value chain, to smaller and sometimes upstart companies offering focused solutions for specialized links in that chain, selecting the right product and bringing that solutions on board can be a daunting task. This book, the second installment of the UtiliPoint Expert Series, follows Trends in Energy Trading, Transaction and Risk Management Software - A Primer and provides valuable insights into the process of selecting, implementing and maintaining these critical systems. It is intended to create a more complete understanding of those critical activities that will be the ultimate determinate of success for any company seeking to improve their ability to compete in a complex and dynamic energy commodities market. In addition to providing information about the specific activities involved in ETRM system selection, implementation, and maintenance, this book also provides in-depth discussions of critical tasks and decision points within those activities, including the importance of testing and the management of historical transactional information. Other topics will assist clients to better understand the business models of their ETRM solutions providers, as the strategies and decisions made by those vendors can have significant implications for the users of their systems.
