Every workday, APSES analysts grapple with mountains of energy statistics to convert the data into well-timed sales and purchases of electrical energy. APSES wanted a data management and analysis system that could help them respond to information requests from state regulators more quickly and provide greater insight into their business data. Avanade, a Gold Certified Microsoft Partner, created a series of applications that embedded the analytical capabilities of Microsoft Office Excel 2003 into Microsoft .NET Framework-based applications that used Microsoft Windows Forms. Innovative speech recognition functionality and diagrammatic displays enabled APSES analysts to quickly find, interpret, and act on structured data without additional training.
