FROM STRATEGY TO DEPLOYMENT, CELERGY UNDERSTANDS SMART GRID FROM THE GROUND UP
Systems Design And Systems Deployment, Nationwide!
One of the first systems integrators to enter the Smart Grid sector, Celergy offers core competence in fixed and wireless communications networks. Its technical know-how is backed up with practical experience in end-to-end delivery to energy utilities while working within the regulatory and grant-assisted environment of the industry. Celergy has built on its experience with significant investments in personnel and training to meet the challenges posed by the upgrade and roll-out of Smart Grid and is positioned not only to implement but also to advise its clients in strategic matters such as vendor selection and network architecture.
Ability to Deliver – Nationwide
Celergy is a project implementer, par excellence. We work with a network of 3,000 subcontractors throughout the USA and Canada to implement and deliver IT and Communications projects. Whether the actual work involves structured cabling, server installations, site surveys or desktop provisioning Celergy has the reach and the resources to get the job done – efficiently and to the highest quality. We achieve this not through any network of regional offices, but through a sophisticated in-house system of project management, backed up with our own IT and project management tool kit (called “Advantage”). The result is that from the client’s perspective, Celergy is the last stop in the supply chain, and can be relied upon to deliver what is needed.
Strategic Advice and Planning from a Systems Integrator
With its core business underpinned by systems integration and rollout, Celergy is uniquely positioned to offer high value professional consultancy as a value-added service. It can do this cost-effectively because we provide the same business, technology and engineering experts for client consulting projects as we do to organize and run our major implementation projects. Whether we compare our cost structure with that of a boutique consultancy or a big-name firm, our staff utilization is more efficient, our sales and marketing overheads are lower, and we are happy to pass on those savings to our clients.
The big advantage for Celergy in consulting services is that the advice and knowledge that we bring is rooted in practical experience. Our knowledge and experience is current, in a sector that is moving extremely fast, and we certainly live by our own advice in the projects that we run. We believe our expertise and grass-roots practicality to be culturally well-positioned within the sector that we serve, and by definition is not something that a dedicated consulting firm would be able to offer.
