TRACK YOUR ENERGY USAGE AND COSTS WITH EASY-TO-UNDERSTAND DATA
WebTMA's Utility Services Management is a powerful module for tracking your organization's energy costs, utility costs, and usage. Utility Services Management consolidates pertinent information about your meters, transformers, rate schedules, and historical weather data. Based on this data, your staff can compare relevant information against actual recorded amounts and budgeted costs to determine variances for investigation. Easily track data about locations, energy and services consumption, and information about billings from a single database. Record daily weather fluctuations and calculate average temperatures for the month to forecast energy and services usage, and costs related to different service types. |

For budgeting purposes, Utility Services Management allows you to establish multiple accounts and service locations for each service type and deduct actual billings from the accounts throughout the year. In addition, easily allocate utility and service costs based on usage, and charge to appropriate departments and buildings.
Quickly and easily generate monthly billing invoices for services rendered. Invoices can encompass multiple buildings, locations within buildings or multiple departments (occupants).
Most importantly, Utility Services Management provides you with a variety of pre-formatted reports and graphs to give you a clear understanding of your utilities and services usage and expenses.
