Achieving the AWS Energy Competency status differentiates SOPTIM as an AWS Partner with sound expertise and technical proficiency within this unique industry, including proven customer success developing solutions across the entire value chain, from production operations and optimisation, to commodities trading, new energy solutions, and more. To receive the award, AWS Partners undergo a rigorous technical validation process, including a customer reference audit. AWS Energy Competency provides energy customers with the ability to more easily select qualified Partners to help accelerate their digital transformations with confidence.

“SOPTIM is extremely proud to achieve the AWS Energy Competency award,” said Nico Vondegracht, authorised signatory for Digital Solutions at SOPTIM. “We are dedicated to providing first class solutions to our customers by combining our excellent specialist expertise and software development competency acquired in over 50 years in the energy industry with the agility, breadth of services, and pace of innovation that AWS provides.”

AWS enables scalable, flexible, and cost-effective solutions from startups to global enterprises. To support the seamless integration and deployment of these solutions, AWS established the AWS Competency Program to help customers identify AWS Partners with comprehensive industry experience and expertise.

With its energy business applications SOPTIM helps its customers to manage crucial day-to-day business activities with maximum efficiency and reliability.

Electronic Confirmation Matching (eCM) and Marked Data Service (MDS) belong to SOPTIM’s constantly growing portfolio of cloud-native solutions based on AWS. Both provide fully automated business processes, rendering labour-intensive and error-prone manual work obsolete, thereby allowing for substantial cost optimisation.

“Our confirmation process is thereby cost efficient, stable, and less prone to errors. In addition, it was very important to us to minimize the workload in our Back Office,” said Alain Berset, Head of Spot-Trading and Back Office at Groupe E after the successful implementation of SOPTIM eCM.
