Business Process Management/Service-Oriented Architecture
When a large federal agency wanted to transform its performance management program, its executives turned to CRGT’s Business Process Management/Service-Oriented Architecture practice. CRGT consultants guided the agency through both defining its business goals, as well as modeling the business processes necessary to support these goals. Ultimately, CRGT developed a custom technology solution that is enabling the agency to achieve billions of dollars in cost savings and ensure nearly 100 percent participation in the program.

Energy Resource Management
Meticulous management of energy usage and associated costs is becoming increasingly important to enterprises. Incorporating sustainable technology into an organization helps meet mandates, and protect and improve the environment in addition to having numerous financial benefits.
Effective energy resource management requires good data and powerful IT tools to report on usage, costs, trends, goals, investments, etc. CRGT’s substantial expertise in data reporting and visual business intelligence can help. We provide energy resource management solutions that are in full compliance with federal mandates for the reduction of energy usage and increasing reliance on energy from renewable resources and non-petroleum fuels.
Energy Management Reports
Whether you want to show return on investment in improving energy efficiency, understand fuel usage by type of fuel (gasoline and alternative fuels) for a fleet of vehicles, or produce reports for regulatory agencies such as the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), CRGT is your partner of choice.
CRGT creates clear and effective business intelligence reports that enable you to effectively manage energy usage and costs. For instance, in order to address federal regulations it may be necessary for an organization to analyze its energy usage within a group of buildings by type of energy (electricity, natural gas, fuel oil) and see trends over time. We address this need by performing a thorough energy audit followed up by detailed reports that include conclusions, action items, and goals.
Visual Business Intelligence (VBI) Solutions
CRGT understands that visual display of information is critical when complex situations need to be explained quickly and clearly. Our Visual Business Intelligence (VBI) solutions give users the ability to analyze multi-dimensional data through visualization. By presenting an enterprise-wide view of information that highlights problems graphically and enables users to drill down into information details, our solution transforms data into information, helping energy managers focus on what is most important.
As an example, a robust VBI application can show you where your energy “hot spots” are on a map and provide statistical information, such as average electricity and fuel costs, by geographic area. If you are planning on expanding your fleet of alternative fuel vehicles, you can display locations where each different type of fuel is sold. Solutions such as this will make your organization more green and profitable. For more information, see our Visual Business Intelligence (VBI) Solutions section.
Geocoding
To display data on a map, latitude and longitude coordinates are needed, but often a customer’s location-based data isn’t in this format. Geocoding is the process of finding associated geographic coordinates from other geographic data such as street addresses and zip codes. CRGT can geocode data to prepare it for use in geospatial applications.
Space Optimization
Two partially-occupied facilities consume far more energy to power their infrastructure than a single, optimized facility. The ability to automatically identify properties that can be vacated by moving operations and assets to other premises with suitable available space can greatly reduce your energy usage and costs. CRGT applies a proven methodology for developing decision-support systems for space optimization, customized to your needs and requirements. By combining visual business intelligence capabilities with a cost model that incorporates facility-related data and customer-specified business rules, we help you determine the optimal solution to meet your business objectives.
