Moving from a conservative past to a new future of energy
A global pandemic, increased tension on the future of fossil fuels and increased market uncertainty are causing widespread change across the end to end energy industry value chains: from energy to electricity retail. The industry is in fact moving from a conservative past to a new future of energy (i.e. the energy transition or the green shift) that requires innovative strategies, new business models and the ability to operate in an increasingly complex operating environment.
In this context technology is emerging as an invaluable enabler, with AI-driven operations and business process automation driving significant improvements and cost reductions. As emerging technologies reshape the industry, and companies accelerate on digitization to enable remote operations, improve cash position, and decarbonize their asset portfolio, new capabilities are required to thrive in the energy markets of tomorrow.

Topdown vs. Bottom-up Planning
| Budgeting & Forecasting | Strategic Modelling (Long Range Planning, Portfolio Planning, etc.) | |
|---|---|---|
| Objective | Develop an enterprise-wide plan for the current corporate strategy | Develop, monitor and adjust corporate strategy |
| Style of planning | Bottom Up | Top Down |
| Users involved in the process | Broad representation across the whole enterprise | Strategic stakeholders only |
| Level of detail | Relatively detailed (e.g. line items, cost centers, entities, product SKUs, etc.) | Summary level (e.g. market, channel, product line, etc.) |
| Chart of account detail | Frequently limited to key areas like Revenue and/or Expenses | Must be full and connected Income Statement, Balance Sheet and Cashflow (e.g. earnings per share |

Win the war of talents and tomorrows energy transition today, with the future of HR Technology
Retooling the future energy company will require new skills to equip an efficient modern workforce. The global energy industry will undergo a sustained period of transformation over the next decade. The change will not just be a matter of doing things differently. We will literally be doing different things that will demand new ways of thinking and operating. As energy companies find themselves dealing with such a new workforce paradigm they will have to rethink their HR business process architecture and target operating model. We believe this will require changing the role and positioning of HR by building on traditional strong functional delivery, continuing the development of skills around data-rich talent planning and management and embracing greater levels of automation and self-service in the way HR provides its services.
