We are pleased to announce our official partnership with Nexplore. With this collaboration, Ferranti and Nexplore take an important step in strengthening digital transformation initiatives for energy companies in Switzerland.

Nexplore brings strong local roots and deep expertise in the Swiss market, with extensive experience supporting public and semi-public organizations. This in-depth understanding of the local regulatory and organizational context, combined with strong Microsoft expertise, provides a solid foundation for successfully delivering complex digital transformation projects.

Our collaboration with Ferranti reflects a shared belief that real innovation happens where strong partnerships, platform expertise, and applied AI come together. By combining Ferranti’s deep industry focus with Nexplore’s Microsoft Power Platform capabilities, we are helping energy and utility organizations turn AI from a vision into tangible business value.” – Urs Löhnert, Business Developer at Nexplore

Driving Smarter Energy Operations on a Scalable Platform

Ferranti complements this with its long-standing, sector-specific expertise in the energy and utilities domain. Through MECOMS 365, Ferranti supports energy companies in optimizing their core processes, ranging from customer interaction and contract management to billing, metering, and market communication — on a scalable and future-ready platform.

By combining these complementary strengths, Ferranti and Nexplore form a strong and reliable partnership: local market knowledge and proximity, reinforced by deep domain and process expertise in the energy sector. This enables us to deliver projects that are not only technologically robust, but also well aligned with business processes and operational realities.

We are proud to partner with Nexplore, not only because of their strong local expertise and deep understanding of the Swiss energy market, but above all because we share the same values around partnership, trust, and long-term commitment. Together, we look with confidence towards further expansion in Switzerland, supporting energy and utility companies as they navigate a rapidly evolving landscape.” – Johan Vandekerckhove, CCO at Ferranti

The first concrete collaboration within this partnership is already underway, clearly demonstrating that this cooperation goes beyond intent and is actively delivering value. In a next phase, Ferranti and Nexplore aim to extend this joint approach to create broader value for other Swiss energy companies facing similar digitalization challenges.

We look forward to working closely with Nexplore and our customers to build sustainable, future-proof solutions for the Swiss energy market.
