Brookfield Utilities UK Named International Customer of the Year at Prophix’s Annual Conference

Prophix Software, a pioneer in global Corporate Performance Management (CPM) software, has named Brookfield Utilities UK (BUUK) as its International Customer of the Year.  The award was announced at Prophix’s Annual User Conference on April 26^th in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Part of Brookfield Infrastructure Partners LP, BUUK is the UK’s leading independent provider of last mile utility networks and constructs, owns and operates more than 30,000 discrete networks, serving more than 1.3million utility connections.

Brookfield Utilities UK became a Prophix customer when the utilities operator needed a more seamless, efficient and quick way to analyse valuable business data and budgeting processes.  BUUK now benefits from a CPM system that is integrated with its general ledger software and has also migrated data from Microsoft Dynamics AX for more advanced reporting.  BUUK is now able to better understand its unique business drivers in a bid to support future growth.

Daniel Mason, Prophix UK Managing Director, said: “Brookfield Utilities was the natural winner for this award because of the value the business places on accurate business information and the success with which the team moved to a new system during a large-scale restructure and general ledger implementation.  For a business with numerous revenue streams and a huge customer base, data is king for Brookfield and the business is an exemplar of what can be achieved with the right tools and systems in place.”

Prophix has helped to transform BUUK’s reporting and evaluation, giving the company easy and secure access to the data it needs as a fast paced and growing business with ease.

The Prophix annual User Conference held April 24 – 27 in Scottsdale, Arizona, featured a robust agenda where attendees learnt more about the latest trends and techniques in corporate performance management (CPM), network with Prophix users and subject matter experts and learnt how to get the most value from their Prophix investment.
