Utility bills are complex and difficult to
understand. Because of this, most business customers just pay their
utility bills without giving them much thought. However, a
surprising number of utility bills contain errors. Also, utility

the lowest rate available. Its not that they are trying to cheat
you, it's just that
IT'S NOT THEIR
RESPONSIBILITY....IT'S YOURS!
The ongoing deregulation of electric power across the country is reducing costs for many business and residential user in affected states (California is the Exception).

DVUA will examine your usage patterns and ensure that you are buying your electric power from the right supplier at the best rate.
Manufacturers in particular often have options on the source of their energy and ways to use it more efficiently.
Telephones:
Most companies upgrade their phone systems little by little, as they
grow. DVUA will analyze your phone system and bills to determine if
your calls are being routed correctly and if you have the optimum number
and type of lines. We will also ensure that your phone system is
being utilized in the most efficient way possible.
In general, you do not have the option to change water or sewer companies. However billing errors are not uncommon and metering errors can occur. We also find ways to save money through reducing waste.
There is minimal involvement on the part of the client apart from providing information and making decisions on recommmendations. The client will be asked to provide access to bills and other pertinent information as well as authorization for DVUA to speak with utility companies on the client's behalf. There is no risk- nothing is paid up front, payment is made only after savings are realized, and you can accept or reject any recommendations.
