Coleman | Hines’ budget tool is specifically designed to assist our clients with the development, implementation and control of their annual energy budget. The budget tool can be configured to reflect the structure of a client’s organization.
Clients can select one of the following budget tiers:
Tier 1 – Corporate Level
An annual overview of the changing economy and energy markets to help our clients understand the impact of these changes to their energy program for the upcoming fiscal year.
Tier 2 – Group Level
Budget model for clients who intend to present total budgeted amounts without itemized site level detail. Budget totals can be reported by Utility, Supplier, State, Region, or an organization-specific reporting level specified by the client. The Tier 2 budget incorporates the impacts outlined in Tier 1.
Tier 3 – Site Level
Detailed site level budgets for each period of the fiscal year. Specific impacts of the following factors: known rate increases, impacts of supplier contracts, energy conservation efforts, green energy, new site construction and remodels and site closures. These represent just a few of the factors included in a site-level budget.
