Case Study: Southern Company Gas streamlines capital planning and portfolio prioritization with Allovance

Southern Company Gas streamlines hundreds of demand intake forms with Allovance

Southern Company Gas, a major energy company, faced a significant challenge in managing its annual capital planning process. The company was inundated with hundreds of demand intake forms and had no efficient method to collect, evaluate, and prioritize project requests against a limited budget, which was a major burden on its technology planning team. To address this, the consulting firm Pyrovio introduced the Allovance platform, a cloud-based strategic planning solution.

The Allovance solution automated the entire strategic planning process, replacing manual spreadsheets and paper forms. It provided a structured method for project evaluation, prioritization, and decision justification, which brought transparency and alignment to organizational objectives. The integration with Power BI enabled dynamic dashboards and year-over-year trend analysis, which was previously unavailable. This allowed the team to maximize portfolio value, ensure accurate project submissions, and even automatically roll over unapproved projects for the next cycle, fundamentally streamlining their operations.
