"The consolidation makes Summary Billing an effective tool," said Paul Nehm, MMSD director of operations and maintenance. "I review our bills to compare current power use with previous months and our accounting staff needs the information too. Having the bill online is a more efficient way to manage and approve it."
Before Summary Billing, handling MGE bills was time-intensive for MMSD.
"We operate a wastewater treatment plant and 15 pumping stations supplied with power from MGE," Nehm said. "We got 16 individual bills from MGE every month. They arrived at different times and had different due dates. We could pay a few bills together, but we still mailed more than 50 checks to MGE annually."
"Now we receive one MGE bill per month and do not have to break up our daily routine multiple times every month to review and pay bills," Nehm added.
Adams Outdoor Advertising
Adams Outdoor Advertising received about 100 bills from MGE monthly.
"We would get one for our building and separate bills for each of our illuminated boards," said Bridgette McCulloch, accounting specialist. "That meant lots of paper and data entry. We worked with MGE to identify and implement a solution."
MGE helped the company group accounts in an efficient way.
"They listened to our needs and set up our Summary Billing so it works well for us," McCulloch said. "That personal touch really made a difference."
"Now we pay only one MGE invoice per month," she added. "The time and effort we save is tremendous."
