How Genesis Energy transformed their IT infrastructure with the cloud

Written by Admin | Jan 6, 2021 11:00:00 AM

Good companies strive to do things better, but truly innovative companies ask why they do certain things and find answers to redefine the way they work.

­Genesis – the electricity generator and retailer of electricity and gas to 680,000 Kiwi homes – is putting the power of self-analysis to good work.

Sizing up opportunities beyond its historical sweet-spot of energy provision, Genesis is recasting itself as an energy management company.

Its bold repositioning has spawned a digital-centric brand, called Energy Online, and new products and services designed to give customers more control over their energy consumption.

But getting to this position involved the large-scale migration of Genesis’ IT to CCL’s Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) platform. The move to infrastructure services was part of a broader partnership involving IT managed services, business mobile, and cloud services spearheaded by CCL parent Spark.
