Hometown Connections Inc. Partners with Quanam to deliver DAPLAN, an
AI-Driven Financial Planning Solution, to Public Power Utilities.
New partnership delivers state-of-the-art, IBM-powered forecasting and budgeting solutions implemented in just 8 weeks!
Hometown Connections, Inc. (HCI), the utility services organization dedicated to enhancing the performance of community-owned utilities, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Quanam, Global Data & AI Leader, to deliver DAPLAN, a cutting-edge financial planning and analysis (FP&A) solution. This partnership brings a “quantum leap” in financial agility to public power utilities and joint action agencies.
As the energy sector faces rapid transformation, public power utilities require faster, more accurate financial modeling to navigate rate changes, capital projects, and risk management. DAPLAN for Utilities offers a purpose-built solution that integrates seamlessly with existing ERP and operating systems (CIS, EAM), enabling finance leaders to drive smarter decisions with real-time data.
“We are thrilled to welcome Quanam into the Hometown Connections family of partners,” said Marc Gerken, CEO of Hometown Connections, Inc. “This is exactly the kind of innovation our industry needs right now. The ability to move from static spreadsheets to dynamic, AI-driven scenario modeling in just eight weeks is a gamechanger for public power utilities. We are incredibly impressed with Quanam’s management team and their commitment to the public power sector. This tool doesn’t just save time; it empowers our utilities to tell their financial story with confidence and precision.”
