Wipro bags 5-yr energy management services deal with Speciality Restaurants

BANGALORE, INDIA: Wipro has won a five-year energy management services contract with Speciality Restaurants Ltd., a leading fine dining operator in India, with 107 restaurants spread across India, Bangladesh, Tanzania and Doha in Qatar.

The EcoEnergy business of Wipro will implement its Managed Restaurant Energy Services (MRES) program across the client’s full service restaurants to help them pare energy and operational costs.

Indraneil Palit, Executive Director (Project, Business Development & Strategic Planning) Speciality Restaurants Ltd., said, "Currently, we have rolled out the Wipro Managed Restaurant Energy Services (MRES) program across 12 of our restaurants with positive results. This engagement will further strengthen our endeavor to deliver extraordinary experiences to our clients whilst caring for our environment."  

The MRES program is driven through a three-pronged restaurant energy control strategy: Intelligent Site Automation, the use of an intuitive Wipro Energy Manager (WEM) Application Suite, which enables restaurants to monitor, control and optimize their energy consumption on a near real-time basis, and the development of a centralized Energy Operations Center (EOC) to generate key insights through big data analytics.

Syed Mansoor Ahmad, Vice President and Head – Wipro EcoEnergy, Wipro Limited, said, “Spiralling energy costs is an area of concern in the QSR (quick service sector) sector worldwide. We are happy to have been chosen by Speciality Restaurants as their energy management partner and are confident that we can help them set new energy saving benchmarks, reduce operating expenditure and enhance end-customer experience.”
