Energy & Utilities
Reduce your workload through standardisation
Market liberalisation, the unbundling of networks and regulatory EU provisions have a decisive influence on price competition in the Energy sector. They are also reasons why energy providers require flexible, transnational IT and trading infrastructures. The services provided by SQS support the international standardisation of IT processes and environments while optimally aligning the complexity of business-critical trading systems and processes.
SQS enables energy companies to achieve lasting cost savings while systematically reducing expenditure. Examples of just some of the services provided by SQS include IT requirements management in line with extended regulatory provisions and including characteristics such as IS-U, as well as central test management with test automation and professionalisation. Our aim is to enable energy companies to conduct their core business in the optimal manner through the use of real-time trading systems while simultaneously enabling new commissioning and large-scale projects to be implemented smoothly.
For the Irish pool market power trader SEMO (Single Electricity Market Operator), for example, SQS assumed responsibility for the development of a performance test strategy. In detail, SQS:
- Drew up a proposal for a suitable software tool for load and performance tests
- Created a performance test strategy and test plan
- Developed performance scripts and scenarios
- Carried out performance test benchmarking and presented the results
A large number of European energy suppliers and local public utility companies have benefitted from the services provided by SQS.
