NAES CORPORATION strategy . As we ' re marching forward , I ' ve been meeting with them and trying to see where they can play a part in that puzzle , as well as where we need to partner with others .”
Now , dedicated to pushing forward with its ERP and digital transformation strategy , Holtermann explains that NAES is in a good position , as the company receives support from Entisys360 and other partner companies to grow its technological capabilities .
“ The continued ERP implementation is key to the coming months ; it ’ s something that we ’ re looking to in the very near-term to get it over the finishing line . Immediately following that , there ' ll be a little bit of a bumpy ride through adoption and stabilisation of that system .
“ That ' s going to give us a big leap forward in our overall modernisation efforts . Additionally , regarding infrastructure and networking modernisation , we ' re continuing to move more and more components to the cloud . We ' ve been out there migrating from the traditional local file shares and on-premise based technologies to the cloud , and we ' ll continue that in the future ,” he says .

Concluding , Holtermann outlines that NAES is still firmly focused on its digital transformation : “ We ' re advancing our cybersecurity programme quite a bit – we are primarily a Microsoft shop , so we have access , through our licencing , to most of their security offerings , and we are expanding our use of those to obtain more process-oriented elements around cyber ; likewise , we are strengthening our incident management , performing tabletop exercises and continuously advancing our cyber security awareness training .
“ A key focus that we ’ re presently involved with and see a lot more coming in future is data insights and advanced analytics . This involves a shift in mindset , moving from the ‘ what happened ’ to more of the ‘ why did it happen ’. We want to adopt that diagnostic type of thinking with predictive analytics and see how we can make it happen with prescriptive type analytics .” energydigital . com 35
