"In the short term, Internet billing is not a cost savings because of the cost to get it going," says Gary Wright, manager of IS at Central Hudson Gas & Electric, which this month made its bills available via TransPoint. Earlier this year, the utility made its billing data available to CheckFree.

To handle the different technical demands from TransPoint and CheckFree, the utility called in a bill-payment service bureau, BillServ, to take a simple flat file from Central Hudson and make it available each way the bill aggregators wanted it.

"TransPoint is a more proprietary type of data exchange using a lot of Microsoft tools, while CheckFree is more like electronic data interchange," Wright says.


That to me is what gives BillServ added value. Duplex distribution, if the trend continues...and I believe it will...it's good to go here.
