Gas Utility Business Customer Satisfaction Study
As the demands of business utility customers continue to evolve, it is imperative that gas utilities stay up-to-date regarding their customers’ needs and expectations as well as industry trends. Utilities that understand their customers’ attitudes, behaviors, and preferences are better able to target performance improvement initiatives that increase overall customer satisfaction.

The study allows utilities to:
