E3 Analytics provides the E3 Building Pulse Diagnostic System™ — a structured, automatic, utility cost-to-cause diagnostic intelligence system for building operational and financial inefficiencies.  Cost-to-cause means every detected anomaly is automatically traced from its financial impact back to its operational root cause.

Our E3 Building Pulse Diagnostic System™ provides ongoing operational intelligence by automatically linking the monthly rates of change in the patterns of cost with the monthly rates of change in the patterns of their underlying causal factors.  It automatically detects, diagnoses, and quantifies anomalies in usage, power utilization, pricing, and billing patterns and explains what changed, why it changed, and how much that change is costing — revealing operational inefficiencies, equipment issues, hard-to-detect billing errors, and unhedged commodity price exposure — as utility bills arrive.

Implementation is simple — and done in two phases:


  1. THE CHECKUP PHASE: 
     
  • Establishes contextual baselines for usage, power utilization, pricing, and cost patterns.
  • Links rates of change in cost patterns to the rates of change in their underlying causal factors.
  • Delivers operational intelligence on where costs can be cut and savings can be made.

  1. THE ONGOING OPTIMIZATION PHASE (Monthly): 

  • Tracks and correlates rates of change in energy and water billing, usage, power utilization, pricing, and number of billing days relative to established baselines — on an ongoing basis.
  • Diagnoses and quantifies operational inefficiencies, equipment issues, hard-to-detect billing errors, and unhedged commodity price exposure — as utility bills arrive.

UNIQUE VALUE

In addition to supporting energy purchases, utility planning and budgeting, and the filing of mandated energy reports, the E3 Building Pulse Diagnostic System™ provides the following unique advantages: 

  1. Structured, automatic detection, diagnosis, and quantification of:
  2. Inefficient power utilization
  3. Water leaks
  4. Steam leaks
  5. Over-estimated consumption
  6. Illegitimate charges
  7. Uncredited payments, discounts, and allowances
  8. Unhedged commodity price exposure
  9. Understanding the monthly changes in utility costs — from a whole organization to the smallest account.
  10. Measuring the effectiveness of implemented energy-saving measures.
  11. Providing strategic insights into where costs can be cut and savings can be made.
  12. Enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of energy managers and operating engineers.
