This modern solution supports traditional and smart meters and allows utilities to have complete management over all the data collected, such as consumption, quality of service variables, events, and more. Additionally, it supports the deployment of VEE functionalities improving billing accuracy and consistency in all processes.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Open understands how important customer experience is for a utility, which is why Smartflex was designed with a complete self-service portal, where customers can execute processes on their own, like payments, requests, and program enrollments. In addition, the solution helps utilities improve customer satisfaction through proactive interactions, which enable service providers to anticipate customer needs and use artificial intelligence, such as chatbots, to engage with customers. With the use of data analytics, Smartflex can help utilities offer them the best solutions according to their specific needs.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><p>This powerful solution is a three-dimensional extended CIS (MDM &#8211; MWM &#8211; DCX) with workforce management functionalities, which expands customer service processes to the field and facilitates the transition from conventional to smart meters. Through a holistic approach, the solution simplifies the interaction between the processes of measuring usage, billing, and customer engagement. Its optimal communication between systems and data exchange through web services truly delivers added value to utilities.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p><p>As utilities continue to move towards a more digital and innovative future, Smartflex is the modern CIS that will empower utilities to make the change to smart meters. With its extensive functionalities, Open\u2019s solution will enable service providers to achieve a successful and smooth AMI deployment, from data management and customer experience, to interoperability between systems.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-9f5ff23 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-eae-slider=\"54396\" data-id=\"9f5ff23\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3317995\" data-eae-slider=\"59209\" data-id=\"3317995\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-54ae8bf elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"54ae8bf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Do you want to know more about how to overcome AMI deployment challenges with the flexibility to model and validate business rules, adapting the system to the characteristics of your technology?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f4e76d2 elementor-button-info elementor-mobile-align-center elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"f4e76d2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-lg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.openintl.com\/ambienteTrabajo2\/infographic-open-intelligence-partner-ami-implementation\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">SEE INFOGRAPHIC<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a utility, having AMI infrastructure brings many benefits to your business.
