30 | SME NEWS - 2019 Energy & Power Awards Global Energy broker Savills prides itself on offering clients around the world the support they need across every aspect of the property market. In celebration of the firm’s UK arm’s win in this year’s Energy and Power Awards we profile it to find out more about the services it offers in this sector. Originally founded in the UK in 1855, today Savills is one of the world’s leading property advisers across commercial, residential and rural real estate. With 600 offices across the Americas, Europe, Asia Pacific, Africa and the Middle East, the firm’s global scale now gives it the wide-ranging specialist and local knowledge across all property sectors to provide a truly comprehensive service to its clients. Operating in the energy consultancy market means that Savills understands the market and the challenges it faces, as well as the ways in which it can improve. Currently, the quality of data within the energy industry is poor. How this data is then processed and utilised is even weaker. This has led to many businesses finding it incredibly difficult, if not impossible to accurately monitor and manage their utilities. Energy Brokering Specialists of the Year 2019 Savills (UK) Limited: Supporting clients to overcome this issue is Savills Energy’s forte. The company is able to offer a high quality, comprehensive range of bureau services tailored to each business’ specific needs and requirements. From helping businesses manage their energy portfolio through to reporting and even tenant utility recharges, the firm’s expert team have all areas covered. Their aim is to help businesses utilise their energy data to open a gateway to a more engaged and responsive working relationship with the ultimate aim of reducing energy consumption, thus saving its clients’ money. Another core issue facing the energy market currently that Savills Energy is eager to overcome is the fact that too many suppliers are providing poor customer service and are not transparent in their billing. This has resulted in confusion, frustration and most certainly disengagement among customers. With the biggest price rises coming from rising third party costs and not rising commodity costs, this lack of transparency will become even less acceptable to customers. To address this, Savills Energy has been leading the charge to ensure that its customers have absolute clarity on the charges that make up their electricity bills and have a solution tailored to their individual needs. The firm is also committed to leading the way in terms of quality of customer service, ensuring that it is always ready and able to respond to any customer requests. As a result, Savills Energy has positioned itself as a reliable energy consultancy service and marked itself out as the best possible option for its valued clients around the world. Fundamentally, Savills constantly aims to be the energy consultancy of choice for clients around the world. The team is focused on providing quality services clients can rely on, which is particularly important in today’s uncertain times.
