A freelance SAP IS-U consultant from our network ensures that an energy provider’s core processes run reliably in SAP: meter management and meter readings, billing and invoicing, contract accounts receivable and payable (FI-CA), energy data management, and market communication with grid operators, suppliers, and metering point operators. Our experts deliver concrete results: corrected billing runs, implemented format changes for market communication, documented customizing, and resolved clarification cases.
Typical triggers include regulatory deadlines set by the Federal Network Agency involving new processes and formats, a backlog of clarification cases in billing and switching processes, the rollout of smart metering systems, or the migration from SAP IS-U to S/4HANA Utilities. Added to this is a tight labor market: experienced IS-U expertise is in high demand, and internal teams are usually fully occupied with day-to-day operations and meeting deadlines.
