With so many important use cases, we are delighted to announce that we were recently cited as a representative vendor in the Gartner Market Guide for Meter Data Management, which provides insight into the MDM market as well as on MDM solutions providers.
Key findings of the guide include:
- The MDM market is maturing rapidly, with a number of commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products being offered both globally and in different regional markets.
- Metering has evolved from being just a component of the revenue cycle processing (meter to cash) to an enterprise function that supports multiple core processes such as asset management, commodity management and customer management.
- Access to accurate, low-latency and granular consumption data is critical for utility digital transformation.
- MDM is the IT component of smart metering (aka Advance Metering Infrastructure or AMI), which is essentially a vertical version of an Internet of Things (IoT) platform. Consequently, MDM vendors are aspiring to become more generic IoT platform providers, while IoT platform vendors are eyeing the utility market to address vertical meter consumption needs.
