You Don't Have To Hate Your Billing System

Frustrated with your billing system?

If you’re like most retail energy providers, your billing system might be one of your biggest headaches—complex, inaccurate, and frustratingly inflexible. Many COOs and back-office teams tell us they outright hate their current billing process. Not only do they create operational nightmares but also damage customer trust and stall business growth. But there’s good news: it doesn’t have to be this way. With the right approach, you can eliminate these frustrations and turn your billing system from a problem into a powerful asset. 

 

Even the best-implemented billing systems can encounter operational issues over time. Challenges like inaccurate invoices, revenue leakage, rigid processes, increasing maintenance costs, or poor integration with new technologies often lead to frustration and inefficiency. But these problems don’t mean your system needs to be replaced. At CG Infinity, we use our 50+ years of industry expertise and proven methodologies to fine-tune your existing billing processes—improving accuracy, streamlining operations, and enhancing customer satisfaction without costly overhauls. 

Does Your Billing System Need a Tune-Up?

Do any of these issues apply to you:

Accuracy and Revenue Leakage

 

  •  Do you regularly deal with unbilled usage or missing meter data?

  •  Are you consistently struggling with reconciliation issues between customers, utilities, bill printers, or e-bill vendors?

  •  Are market rules on delayed billing causing you revenue losses?

  •  Do you often see mismatches between billed revenue and expected charges?

 

Flexibility and Scalability 

  •  Does your billing system struggle to adapt quickly to new market regulations?

  •  Are pricing structures changes a painful and slow process?

  •  Does your system limit your ability to respond swiftly to new customer demands?

 

Maintenance Costs and Technical Debt 

  •  Is maintaining your billing system expensive, draining resources from other initiatives?

  •  Are you sacrificing innovation or strategic growth simply to maintain an expensive billing system that you hate?

 

Integration and Automation 

  •  Does your billing system fail to integrate smoothly with other modern technologies?

  •  Do you rely on manual processes that create operational bottlenecks?

  •  Are you unable to use billing data effectively for strategic decision-making?

 

If any of these apply to you, your billing system could benefit from a strategic tune-up.

How Can CG Infinity Help With Your Billing Challenges?

Mollie's Top 5: Billing Accuracy

“I was reviewing code for a major energy provider and immediately saw inefficiencies that hadn’t been flagged in testing. The code technically worked—but I knew it would double the invoice runtime. After halting deployment and enforcing performance testing, we discovered the worst-case scenario: the invoice that used to take 20 hours now took 40. After optimizing the code, we brought it down to 24 hours. That one catch saved the client from a massive production crisis.”

— Tanya Shepherd, SVP, Energy & Utilities 

“We once uncovered a $10,000-per-month pass-through charge that hadn’t been billed for five months—$50,000 in revenue leakage, completely unnoticed. In another case, we found a major commercial account that hadn’t been invoiced in over a year, meaning $1.2 million of unbilled revenue. These aren’t anomalies—they’re signs of systemic billing disconnects. We don’t just find the leaks—we plug them for good.”

— Tanya Shepherd, SVP, Energy & Utilities 

“Too often, companies assume they need a new billing system when really, they just need alignment. At one utility, the client blamed the vendor, and the vendor blamed the client. We stepped in, diagnosed the disconnect, and reestablished trust on both sides. Sometimes inefficiencies come from underused features, lack of integration, or training gaps—not system failure. And when replacement is necessary, we’re ready for that too."
