Unified platform and team
"I think the fact that multiple departments can use the same tool, it kind of helps bring all of us together speaking the same language."
- John Mayhew, Senior Real Time Trader, PNM
More time for analysis
"We're able to do our jobs faster and easier, and it just gives us time to focus on analyzing the data, instead of preparing data."
- Brad Lafler, Market Optimization Lead, Lincoln Electric System
Trust through transparency
"I see our PCI relationship more like a peer or a teammate than just a provider or supplier."
- Juan Guichard, CEO, Ammper Energia
Integrated suite of tools
"Having one vendor where all of those different tools and solutions work with each other, it just made sense for us instead of having a vendor to do this and a vendor to do that."
- Jason Smith, Senior Engineer, Santee Cooper
Rapid ROI realized
"PCI's integrated solutions have delivered significant cost savings and efficiency gains for Santee Cooper. Their tools and support have been invaluable to our business."
- Chris Moore, Business Analyst, Santee Cooper
Tailored software solutions

- Tucker Smith, Sr. Market Coordinator, Basin Electric
Collaboration built on trust
"The bottom line is it’s an enterprise solution... everything comes together as one, so that it’s a much easier, supportable process as well as tool set. It has definitely saved us time... PCI delivers so that we can keep moving forward."
- Maureen Kempton, Sr. Manager, Salt River Project
Simplifying settlements, expanding partnership
"We've been able to file disputes with our ISOs and get some money back because we're able to see more data quickly. We've saved a ton of time, probably a couple of days' worth each week going through, looking at PCI data, and validating that way."
