Insiders’ Guide to Purchasing Energy News and Data

Staged and erroneous energy transactions used to manipulate pricing indices have put pricing publications and electronic information services under increased scrutiny. With corporate reputations and millions of dollars at risk, firms must gain a better understanding of these real-time energy products prior to their purchase.

In most instances, real-time services are not purchased wisely or utilized to their fullest potential. This limits their value, raises questions about their effectiveness and hinders corporate performance. The study provides firms currently using, or looking to purchase such systems, ways to:

  • Maximize their real-time information system investment by better understanding their needs. Case studies are provided to help identify the needs of various sized companies
  • Avoid common mistakes made when purchasing systems such as over-buying, paying too much or buying the wrong type of services
  • Obtain a better understanding of real-time services and how to use these services most effectively
  • Successfully evaluate and navigate through the thicket of information providers, distributors, and vendors and know whom to contact for what specific service
  • Learn how to interact with system representatives and demand better performance from them. Includes questions to ask prospective vendors, how to evaluate them and negotiate for the best deal possible
  • Identify future real-time information service trends

    Insiders’ Guide to Purchasing Energy News and Data is designed to enhance your organization’s use of real-time information. By implementing the study’s recommendations, firms will augment their analytical capabilities, operate more efficiently and increase their competitiveness and profitability.
