Services

WE POWER YOUR BUSINESS'S STABILITY

Professional services designed for utility success

From CIS implementation to daily operations and AI innovation, we support your utility at every stage.

At Open, we build long-term relationships with every utility that trusts Smartflex, offering CIS implementation, support, specialized utility consulting, managed services, and AI innovation services designed to turn technology into measurable business results.

THE CHALLENGES OF TODAY'S UTILITY OPERATIONS

Is your operation ready for what's next?

Digital transformation is no longer optional. But moving forward without the right support can mean costly disruptions, AI projects with no return, and overloaded teams. These are the challenges utilities face most today.

Continuity at risk

Poorly managed updates and reactive support can disrupt critical utility billing and customer service operations.

AI projects with no return

Artificial intelligence projects fail to generate ROI, mainly due to lack of direction, fragmented data, and tools disconnected from the operational core.

Dependency without control

Delegating technology operations shouldn’t mean losing visibility or decision-making power over platform performance.

OUR SERVICES

Every stage of your operation with Smartflex has a dedicated service. From CIS implementation and support to managed services, utility consulting, and AI innovation, our team works with you to improve performance and continuously evolve your customer operations.

1. 24/7 Support

Uninterrupted operational continuity, always.

We continuously update Smartflex with new capabilities without disrupting your operation. Our utility software support team is available 24/7 to resolve unexpected issues and help protect the continuity of critical billing and customer service operations.

2. Solution delivery & system implementation

Predictable implementations, no surprises.

Delegate without losing control over performance. 

Delegate the administration and technical support of Smartflex to our team. We continuously monitor critical operating variables and oversee application performance so your team can focus on the business.

5. Smartlab - AI Consulting and Innovation for Utilities

From idea to MVP, with no blind bets. 

Smartlab is Open’s AI lab for utilities, designed to help you identify, validate, and turn AI use cases in customer operations into concrete projects before committing to a full implementation.
Through a specialized methodology, we help you evaluate potential impact, architecture, timelines, costs, and integration requirements before you decide.
