Proposed solution summary
- As a consumer, I want to ensure the data held by my supplier and other industry parties is correct so that I receive accurate and timely bills so that I understand what I need to pay and by when with no surprises.
- As a consumer, I want to be able to switch my energy supply without experiencing significant delays whilst my new and old supplier resolve any issues. So that I can see the benefits of switching at the earliest opportunity.
- As an SDEP User, I want to be able to automate processes that use the SDEP, so I can meet my obligations as efficiently and effectively as possible. As an EES or SDES User, I want to be able to automate certain user maintenance requests, so I can manage user maintenance activities as efficiently as possible.

Problem Statement
It is not possible to automate the sending and receiving messages through the SDEP. It is also not possible to manage Authorised Person’s permissions in the EES and SDES in bulk where there is a high volume of changes required. This requires processes to be managed manually by an Authorised Person and doesn’t allow EES and SDES Users to identify more efficient ways of working.
