UMS was founded in 1998 by Brian Coughlan, a former power company executive, to help utility customers save money. As an engineer and account rep, he noticed many businesses missed out on savings because utility rate plans were complex. He also discovered that utilities don’t audit their own billing for errors or overcharges, which led him to start UMS with the belief that customer savings are always the company’s priority.

Since then, UMS has helped 10,000+ organizations save over $750 million. We only get paid when you save, and if we find no errors or better rate plans, we ensure you’re not overcharged at no cost to you. Our certified analysts are experts in energy auditing, management, procurement, and renewable energy, giving us the knowledge to make the best recommendations for your business.
