Schneider Electric Signs Groundbreaking Premium Partnership Agreement With Aspect Enterprise Solutions
Houston, TX (PRWEB) August 12, 2014 -- In an industry first, global specialist in energy management, Schneider Electric, has entered into a sales and implementation partnership with top Cloud E/CTRM vendor Aspect Enterprise Solutions. This partnership allows small to mid-size companies to access a complete risk management software solution, offering the most compelling and comprehensive Commodity Trading and Risk Management (CTRM) solution to the energy trading, commodity trading and risk management space.
Schneider Electric is the leading provider of market information, including physical market prices for refined fuels in North America, and is the largest provider of proprietary news, weather and analysis. Aspect Enterprise Solutions is the market leader for Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions in the global energy and commodity physical trading sectors, and offers the only web-based, multi-commodity, integrated risk management solution.

We have a strong customer base throughout North America, and proven sales and account teams that can deliver tremendous value by working with Aspect and levering their ability to quickly deploy and deliver accessible, affordable Cloud solutions to the mid-market, like no other company in the world today," says Michael Browne, Vice President, Analytics and Trading at Schneider Electric.
