AMCS acquires utility billing software company

AMCS, a waste and recycling software provider based in Limerick, Ireland, has acquired Utilibill, a cloud billing company based in Melbourne, Australia, for an undisclosed amount. The company will use Utilibill to expand its operations into the global water and energy sectors.

According to a news release from AMCS, Utilibill is a software company providing a cloud-based utility billing platform. The company was founded 16 years ago by Igor Green and Morgan Duncan. Utilibill started serving telecommunications clients before expanding into the energy market eight years ago. Utilibill has close to 100 employees, including support centers in the Philippines and offices in the US serving more than 200 telecommunications, water and energy utilities globally.

“Utilibill has the potential to replicate this in global water and energy usage,” says Jimmy Martin, CEO of AMCS. “Smart billing infrastructure solutions can be leveraged to incentivize and optimize the sustainable use and production of resources such as water and energy for both households and businesses.” 

In Australia, Utilibill counts Computershare, Zen Energy, TeleChoice, Vonex, More Telecom and Electricityinabox as its billing platform customers.

“AMCS already has a strong presence in Australia and New Zealand with a base of over a hundred environmental services companies including Veolia, Suez, Remondis and Waste Management New Zealand,” says Igor Green, co-founder and CEO at Utilibill. “Utilibill customers will benefit from the global AMCS organization and strong local presence in Australia and North America.”
