AMT-SYBEX
AMT-SYBEX is a Consultancy and Technology solutions provider focused on the essential industries - utilities, transport and public sector.

In highly competitive utilities markets, efficient communication between market participants is essential. With customers continuing to exercise their freedom to switch suppliers combined with increasing competition and the introduction of new metering technology, the data transfers within the market are becoming increasingly complex.

Not only does this increase your operational costs, but in an environment where customer retention is already challenging, these transfers put data integrity at risk, and can lead to a poor service, customer frustration and inevitably churn.

With our Data Transfer Solution (DTS), we're out to optimise market competition. Now "Powered By NetWeaver", DTS is the solution to underpin the management of data flows between market participants, significantly lowering costs and improving the integrity of your customer, metering and consumption data.
