Energy procurement
How you buy power and gas, and what your contracts expose you to.
Where every engagement begins
The Plexus Commercial Sustainability Assessment™
One evaluation of your energy, infrastructure, operations, and technology. One roadmap to long-term profitability.
What it is
We do not begin relationships with product discussions.
Most vendors start with what they sell. We start with how your business runs. The Sustainability Assessment is a structured evaluation of the systems that determine your operating costs and your resilience — conducted before any recommendation is made.
The output is a strategic roadmap: findings, prioritized opportunities, projected impact, and sequencing. It is designed to be useful whether or not you engage us to execute it.
Scope
Nine areas. One integrated view.
Utility contracts
Terms, renewal dates, structures, and billing accuracy.
Utility consumption
Usage and demand patterns; where consumption is waste.
Solar feasibility
Whether on-site generation pencils — honestly.
Infrastructure
Asset condition, deferred maintenance, capital exposure.
AI opportunities
Where automation measurably improves margin — and where it doesn't.
Operational efficiency
Process, staffing structure, and throughput.
Payroll optimization
Employer tax structure and benefit design.
Future business needs
Growth plans and the infrastructure they will demand.
What you receive
The roadmap.
A written strategic document covering: current-state findings across all nine areas; opportunities ranked by impact and effort; projected effect on operating costs and resilience; and a recommended sequence — what to do first, what to defer, what to ignore.
Delivered in a working session with your leadership, not an email attachment.
The objectivity promise
Our recommendations may include Plexus services. They may also include operational changes that involve purchasing nothing from us. That is intentional. Trust is built through objective recommendations.
Process & timeline
Four steps, clearly bounded.
01
Intake call
Thirty minutes with an advisor. Your portfolio, your priorities, and whether the Assessment is even the right fit.
02
Data gathering
Utility bills, contracts, and operational information — we provide a checklist and handle the collection burden.
03
Analysis
Our team evaluates all nine areas and models the opportunities.
04
Roadmap review
A working session with your leadership to walk the findings, the priorities, and the sequencing.
Who it's for
Built around your asset class.
Common questions
Before you request one.
Scope depends on portfolio size and complexity, and we quote it plainly on the intake call before anything begins. There is no obligation attached to the intake call itself.
Recent utility bills, current supply contracts, and basic operational information. We provide a short checklist and do the heavy lifting.
Most single-property assessments complete within a few weeks of receiving data. Multi-property portfolios are scoped on the intake call.
No. The roadmap is yours. Some recommendations may involve Plexus services; others will not. You choose what to act on and who executes it.
Plexus advisors, supported where appropriate by our strategic technology and industry partners. Every finding is reviewed before it reaches your roadmap.
