Ponton supports you in understanding and adapting to upcoming regulatory changes and the changed requirements resulting from amended legislation, new business models and platform solutions. Ponton helps you to translate these changes to risk management systems, compliance management, agile product development and more.
We develop software using the latest methodologies and tools to assure the software quality needed by our clients with a critical infrastructure background. The innovative systems we develop require an agile development approach. We apply a spectrum of software technologies reaching from classical Java to low-code.
Operating an industry-strength software platform brings several several requirements: our clients‘ systems need to be protected against various types of cyber attacks, they need to be available 99.99% of the time, yet they require timely and frequent updates. PONTON can develop could-native applications and utilises cloud services wherever useful. We follow a DevOps / SRE approach to automate deployments and system updates.
Holistic consulting approach on new business opportunities and business models with the goal of building homogeneous ecosystems of products and services for your customers. The advisory is method-driven and agile, but also with prepared business model kits and catalogs in hand and extends to the MVP and its implementation.
Leveraging the Ponton DNA – platforms are our core business: Overview of existing platform solutions, business and revenue models of platforms (keyword: XaaS) as well as identification of new applications and business models of and for platforms in the energy industry. Comprehensive consulting for the establishment, scaling, use and application, expansion and (IT-technical) optimization, linking and further development of platforms.
Triad of consulting on holistic governance systems to achieve your corporate Net-Zero goals, identification and implementation of new green business models with green power, PPA, decentralized energy supply models, green hydrogen or green heat, and consulting on setting up and operating or directly implementing platforms for verification and supply chain transparency.
Ponton is fostering your journey towards a more agile and customer-centric company. Through the involvement of Ponton experts in your (IT-)projects, the benefits of a more agile way of working will be brought closer to your employees and embraced in a learning manner. Supplemented by superordinate advisory and centralised instruments designed for improved agility, we’ll ensure that transformation becomes a steady mindset in your enterprise.
Ponton is helping you to unlock the potential of Blockchain technology in energy delivery models. Our professional consulting services provide use case overviews and business model analyses, as well as alternative IT options combining both benefits of Blockchain applications while being easier to implement. The German restart in its smart meter rollout is great opportunity for broader implementation – let us show you how!
Comprehensive advisory on implications and necessary adjustment requirements as well as opportunities arising from energy law and regulatory changes on national or European level.
Risk analysis and risk management especially in energy trading and the resulting reporting, documentation and compliance requirements.
Agile development is essential in an innovative environment. A new platform for redispatch or post-deal processing, for example, can never be fully specified, and requirements are constantly changing.
Developing in an agile way shows early, tangible results. At the same time, clients can redirect and re-prioritise development. However, agility cannot be delegated to the service provider, the client remains part of the game. We can adjust our capacity to whatever the client requires. We also scale up and down and we cover all side tasks of the core development: deployment, operation, support.
Often, developing your sofware functionality is a quite mainstream and time-consuming exercise: secure login, entering master data, processing transactions, and, finally, creating of reports.
Why not use a software development tool that allows to configure over 90% of the work instead of programming? This saves effort and cost and provides a safe, performant, and deployable environment. PONTON is an experienced development partner of Mendix – one of the leading low-code platforms. Development effort is counted in days here, not in months.
Business Intelligence (BI) means analysing, managing and presenting your business information. Another meaning of business intelligence is being smart about your business and your business processes and information.
At PONTON, we believe that it takes both kinds of business intelligence to develop software in the data-heavy environment of the energy sector. By focusing on the meaning and uses of data both within an organisation and upstream and downstream of it, PONTON is able to create value out of data.
Interoperability is the driver for automation and cost reduction. Our product Ponton X/P stands for interoperability: entire energy sectors in countries such as Austria use Ponton X/P for market communication, based on the AS4 protocol. Energy traders use it for post-deal processes while other industries use it for secure data exchange in general.
Whenever suppliers of power or gas, system operators, and other market roles interact, the Yin-Yang-Yong of data communication needs to be standardised: data formats, business processes, and communication protocols. In order to standardise all this, PONTON is known as a facilitator of consortia and an advisor for the avoidance of interoperability blockers.
Interoperability is an achievement for external data exchange, but data still needs to be extracted out of your back-end systems and written back. Ponton E/A is the glue between your internal data space and the external world. We help a large number of energy Equias clients to validate, map, clean, and aggregate data for different types of application and therefore avoid the lion’s share of work.
Operating a secure and performant platform that is open for future challenges – this is a challenge of its own kind. We know this as we have done it over more than 20 years. Systems like the Equias CMS, SMSS, EDA or DA/RE operate with an availability of > 99,99%. See this as a proof that we know how to develop and maintain mission-critical software.
All operators of maintenance-intensive software platforms are moving their systems to the cloud. Combined with a highly automated deployment process, cost reduction can be enormous. PONTON can help move “on-prem” systems to the cloud or build new systems native to the cloud from the start. But even systems built in the cloud sometimes need improvements – only by making proper use of cloud services and architecture can the advantages be realised – with the help of PONTON.
IT Security is a more critical success factor than ever: it is a survival factor. ISO 27001 certification is only the beginning. At PONTON, we apply OWASP and ISTQB standards in our daily work. We know how to protect our IT environments and those of our clients. An implementation of this security knowledge is our product Ponton X/P for secure and reliable data communication.
