The energy sector is a complex and demanding industry, with organisations constantly striving to maximise efficiency, profitability, and sustainability. To achieve these goals, it is essential to have the right software tools, systems, and support in place. Elsewhere on our website you’ll see how TouchstoneEnergy can help energy businesses by providing tried-and-tested software solutions for accounting and finance, enterprise asset management (EAM), procurement and spend management, performance management and more. However, we don’t stop there. Once implementation is complete TouchstoneEnergy support services take over to keep everything running smoothly and help you get the most from your software. This article will delve into the various components of our support services, highlighting the benefits they offer and their significance in driving success for energy companies of all kinds.

System Review & Process Optimisation

One of the key components that you have access to through TouchstoneEnergy support services is a robust regimen of system review and process optimisation. This process involves a thorough examination of an organisation’s existing systems and processes, identifying areas where improvements can be made and performance optimised. Our support team do this in two principal ways:

Identifying Bottlenecks

A crucial aspect of system review and process optimisation is detecting bottlenecks in workflows and operations that may be hindering efficiency. Our support services can help businesses identify these bottlenecks, and address them to improve overall performance.

Streamlining processes

Once bottlenecks are identified, the experienced team charged with providing TouchstoneEnergy support services can recommend and implement streamlined processes, ensuring that each step in a client’s workflow is as efficient as possible. This may involve automating specific tasks, reorganising teams, or modifying existing processes.

Software Training

Another vital component of our support services is software training. In order to fully capitalise on the benefits of TouchstoneEnergy solutions, a customer will need to provide or undertake a certain level of training, given that an employees’ understanding of the tools at their disposal will have a direct impact on whether they are able to use them to their fullest extent or not. That’s why we provide the following training services as part of the TouchstoneEnergy support services offering:

Personalised Training Programs

TouchstoneEnergy offers personalised training programs tailored to suit the needs of each customer organisation that we work with. This means that the training provided is specific to the software and modules used by the business, ensuring that employees are equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in their roles.

Continuous Learning Support

In addition to initial training, TouchstoneEnergy support services also provide ongoing learning support. Anytime you need a refresher on a given training topic, or need to train new employees on a system we’ve implemented for you – reach out to us. In addition, our training material is under constant review – as a given platform or technology moves forward, we make a point of staying up to date with developments. This means that any training we provide comes in line with current best practices and capabilities, and ensures that we aren’t teaching our clients outdated or outmoded procedures.
