Predictive Analytics for Utility Collections Management
Challenge
U tilities face significant financial risk from customer payment delinquency, with companies managing millions of customer accounts and billions in revenue. Traditional collection processes are reactive, waiting until payments are already late before taking action. This leads to higher bad debt write-offs and increased collection costs.
