The award recognizes SSP's innovative work helping utilities adopt the Esri Utility Network through its SSP Accelerate program, an end-to-end framework that streamlines data readiness, migration, and implementation. By reducing risk and improving data quality, the approach helps electric, gas, and water or wastewater utilities modernize faster and with greater confidence.
