Utility Management Services
Our utility billing and management services are based on three federally copyrighted software modules created by the
Guardian IT Development Team.
GuardianSoft+®
GuardianSoft+® billing and management information software is built on 30 years of learning what works and doesn't work in the utility cost recovery industry. Guardian software provides our clients with interactive real-time information designed to maximize recovery of utility costs in apartments, shopping centers, manufactured housing communities and other master metered properties.
GuardianScan+®
GuardianScan+® provides our clients with 24/7 access to daily meter readings and consumption for each apartment unit.

GuardianLink+®
GuardianLink+® saves time and improves utility management services for residential and commercial properties by providing meter reading data for volumetric consumption and utility billing information on portable media via electronic transmission. Through this service, our data exchange software establishes an electronic link between
GuardianSoft+® and most property management software programs including Yardi, OneSite, RealPage, Skyline, AMSI and Rent Manager.
Vacancy Cost Recovery
Have you ever paid a new tenant's electric bill when the tenant neglected to put the electric service in their name? What about their gas bill? Both happen with surprising frequency.
Guardian
Vacancy Cost Recovery Service, a component of our
GuardianLink+® module, identifies and retroactively bills residents who neglect to sign-up for electric and gas service when they move in. Many apartment communities with "consecutive service agreements" lose tens of thousands of dollars each year because of neglected utility sign up.
Contact us to learn how we can recover these lost revenues for you.
Electric Load Aggregation Services
Depending on local tariffs and regualations, some apartment and condominium communities may be able to drive down electric costs through load aggregation. Residents are billed at rates below the local utility tariff. Apartment owners benefit through participation in the rate differential savings. Learn more.
