Example: oil, gas, energy & utilities software for a fintech business in Madrid
Consider a fintech company in Madrid (banking, corporate hqs and startups). A typical oil, gas, energy & utilities software engagement would start with iot dashboards, then ev & solar platforms, and finish the first release with asset management — usually within 8–16 weeks.
Payments would run through SEPA, data would be handled under EU GDPR and LOPDGDD, and success would be measured on onboarding completion rate, time to approve an application and fraud loss rate.
