Quatrro and GridPoint Form Strategic Partnership to Offer Energy Management

Services aimed at small and medium businesses

August 20, 2015

ROSEMONT, Ill. — Quatrro Business Support Services, a provider of cloud-based business support services, announced it has formed a strategic partnership with GridPoint, an energy management solutions provider, to enable small and medium businesses (SMBs) to optimize energy savings and manage their energy spend efficiently.

As part of the agreement, Quatrro will act as a referral partner by offering GridPoint’s energy management solution to its customers in the restaurant, retail, automotive, health care, and hospitality space with the intention to improve their operational efficiency, streamline energy management, and reduce operating costs. With this partnership, Quatrro will be able to offer its customers cost-effective, granular submetering and monitoring capabilities, and automate their energy reduction plans.

In addition, the partnership strategically enables the two companies to leverage their existing relationship to mutually promote and thereby gradually evolve to offer Quatrro’s range of SMB specific services such as finance and accounting, technical support, credit solutions, HR and payroll, administration support, and website development services to GridPoint’s customers.

“Quatrro is one of the leading SMB service providers in the industry today. Through this partnership, Quatrro envisions to increase both companies’ addressable markets by enhancing penetration in verticals where energy is a major operational cost,” said Charles Harmonick, president, Quatrro Business Support Services. “Quatrro is very excited about the prospects of this partnership and expects it to account for increased business opportunities for both the companies.”

“Quatrro will be a very strong addition to GridPoint's expanding Referral Partner Program,” said Mark Danzenbaker, senior vice president of sales, marketing and product management at GridPoint. “SMBs need greater visibility into past and expected energy costs, and we are excited to expand our market reach in support of Quatrro’s customer base and enable their customers to take control of energy consumption and achieve energy and operational savings goals.”
