MECOMS is Ferranti’s end-to-end solution for energy utility markets. The state-of-the-art technology handles all major elements of utility distribution, including billing and customer care. Defining features of MECOMS include full integration, short implementation time, and a user-friendly interface. Based on the Microsoft Dynamics AX solution, MECOMS is highly customisable and well-suited for deployment in rapidly growing and fast-changing environments.
Rapid economic development over the last decade in the Asia-Pacific has injected dynamism into the region’s energy markets, but it has also created new challenges for the utilities industry. Deregulation is forcing gas and water companies to find new ways to manage resources and control their facilities. The collaboration between Ferranti and NCS will lead to the development of new and differentiated products that meets the new technology needs of the region’s energy and utilities suppliers.
The collaboration will boost NCS’ capabilities and expand its range of solutions for the utility industry. Mr Chia Wee Boon, CEO of NCS Group, said, “Not only is Ferranti a technology leader in energy and utilities, its revolutionary, customer-oriented approach to the business of energy distribution is strongly aligned with NCS’ focus on bringing great value to customers. NCS is pleased to be the preferred partner of Ferranti for its MECOMS™ solution.”
