The SIMS integrates resource activity data, demographic information, and numerous associated attributes of structures (e.g. footprint, date of construction, and cost) on a geographic information systems enabled platform to perform advanced analyses of resource consumption patterns across a city or utility service area. The SIMS provides a powerful resource tool that is deployed across multiple departments for more effectively designing, targeting, implementing, and tracking water, natural gas, and electricity efficiency programs.

The SIMS also enables direct outreach to groups or individuals participating in programs using intelligent, customized messaging based on advanced analytics to better facilitate the engagement of local businesses and residents in initiatives. Standard SIMS reports empower clients with advanced insights into resource consumption and greenhouse gas emission trends across sectors, subsectors, and customer groupings (e.g. key accounts) while the Symbiotic team serves as an extension of client staff for generating customized analytical reports and maps.
