Existing Industry


One of the keys to a successful economic development program is having and maintaining a good relationship with the existing industries.  Listed below are two programs in which PowerSouth is currently involved:


Synchronist

The Synchronist program is a software tool used to collect, organize, analyze and report existing industry information. This information gives community and economic development decision makers valuable insight into the dynamics of their local economies.  PowerSouth has and will partner with the Economic Development Partnership of Alabama (EDPA) and local communities to implement this existing industry program. The program provides local economic development organizations with information in the following areas:

  • Predicts companies at risk
  • Places your organization in a leadership role
  • Creates a valuable proprietary database
  • Identifies companies with the best growth potential and new marketing opportunities
  • Maximizes the value of meeting company executives
  • Gives decision makers critical insight


Key Accounts
PowerSouth’s mission for the Key Accounts Management Program is to assist our member owners in achieving the status of "energy provider of choice" for existing and potential commercial and industrial customers. Establishing positive relationships with customers that promote honesty, integrity and trustworthiness while delivering competitive rates, innovative products and services and providing excellent customer service is the program's goal.

PowerSouth strives to provide our member owners tools and expertise to help their customers save money and better serve the needs of their customers.  We believe this can be accomplished in a variety of ways: by improving their business efficiency through energy management and control; enhancing power quality and reliability; and helping the customer make informed decisions on energy solutions for years to come.  PowerSouth staff is constantly working to identify and develop solutions for our members.

The following programs and services have been implemented by PowerSouth on behalf of our member owners to assist with successful implementation of the Key Accounts Program.  PowerSouth’s key accounts marketing staff will coordinate energy management services, provide technical support and expertise to member owners for successful operation of their Key Accounts Programs.
