Industry: Healthcare
Health from a single source - with acute clinics, rehabilitation clinics and care facilities for senior citizens and people with disabilities, the KMG clinics in north-east and central Germany provide a highly qualified network of inpatient medical and care facilities. The range of services is supplemented by outpatient care options in medical care centres and by outpatient nursing services.
Bundled energy purchasing
KMG Kliniken was looking for support in the area of energy purchasing, specifically a solution that would enable the organisation to bundle energy purchasing. There was a desire to be able to manage all clinics and facilities centrally and digitally in order to achieve greater transparency and an overview. Frank Niemann, the Managing Director responsible for the technical service companies, was also looking for a partner to advise him on all aspects of energy purchasing relating to supplier status.
Digital energy data management
KMG Kliniken has been an enPORTAL customer since 2010 and uses the enPORTAL connect energy platform for energy purchasing and energy data management. As all points of purchase (i.e. individual clinics and facilities) are clearly listed on the digital platform, Frank Niemann has a complete overview of all energy consumption data and can bundle energy purchasing according to his wishes. "I'm delighted with the transparent presentation of the points of purchase at Group level with load profiles and the support in the supplier status process with invoice processing for incoming and outgoing invoices," says Frank Niemann. Thanks to the digital energy marketplace with over 700 energy suppliers, energy buyers benefit from maximum competition in the energy market. The entire tendering process is completed in just a few hours, the digital processes begin with the request for quotation from the energy suppliers and end with the digital online contract, which is concluded in a legally secure manner with a click.
Successful collaboration for 14 years
Thanks to the digital and competitive tendering process for the bundled energy requirements of the locations, it was possible to achieve prices in line with the market for the KMG clinics. "I particularly appreciate the fact that all my energy data is always up to date and that I have a personal account manager at my side for all questions relating to purchasing and data management," says Frank Niemann, describing the collaboration with enPORTAL. He summarises: "Covering energy requirements in the hospital sector will become increasingly important in the future. It's good to know that we have a powerful and competent partner in enPORTAL to help us meet this challenge.
"Success in energy purchasing is only possible with a strong network of verifiable data, market participants and experts - what counts in concrete terms: Keeping consumption data permanently up to date, using competition in the heterogeneous market and observing developments on the energy exchanges at all times. This is exactly what we offer with enPORTAL connect."

Nie zuvor waren die Energieausschreibungen für die über 890 bayerischen Kommunen so effizient, transparent und zeitsparend wie bei den letzten erfolgten Bündelausschreibungen für Strom und Gas, die über die energiespezialisierte Vergabeplattform enPORTAL connect gelaufen sind.
In search of more efficient energy purchasing, FRÄNKISCHE Rohrwerke Gebr. Kirchner GmbH & Co. KG decided to use enPORTAL. In April 2016, the internationally active production company from Königsberg launched an online tender via the web-based marketplace for the first time. Good purchasing timing, short response times and the great competition among suppliers led to an immense reduction in costs: the pure energy price for electricity was reduced by 30 percent for the 2017 delivery year. Purchases were made by mouse click in less than two hours.
Heinzler Maschinenbau GmbH is a European company with Bavarian roots with one site each in Bruckmühl and Hungary. The medium-sized family business specialises in classic areas of machine and overhead line construction as well as antenna technology. In order to make energy procurement more efficient and take greater advantage of competition in the energy market, Managing Director Robert Heinzler opted for the free commercial service from enPORTAL in July 2017. With the use of the online portal, standardised processes and competition among 620 suppliers, a saving of 9,000 euros for electricity and gas was achieved for 2018.
Rehamed GmbH is one of the first customers. Since 2008, the company from the healthcare sector has already been using the enPORTAL connect service for the annual tendering of approx. 184,000 kWh of electricity. Rehamed offers physiotherapy, rehabilitation and health sports based in Stuttgart.
