Energy companies are running into a hard truth: the old “buy vs. build” debate no longer fits today’s reality—especially as AI moves from experiment to expectation. A modern software strategy must now account for cloud-native, modular ecosystems, where open APIs, integrations, and AI-ready interfaces determine how quickly teams can launch, adapt, and scale. Early…

Generative AI has moved past being a shiny demo and into the messy reality of enterprise operations—where data lives in different systems, customers expect instant answers, and security teams (rightfully) say “prove it.” In energy services specifically, even small efficiency gains matter: many retail energy providers operate on thin margins, and operational blind spots—billing…

Energy billing is one of those things most people only think about when something goes wrong—an unusually high charge, a missing bill, a surprise shutoff notice, or a rate plan that suddenly doesn’t make sense. With smart meters, more complex pricing options, and different rules in regulated vs. deregulated markets, even a small breakdown…

Corporate giving is increasingly viewed as part of local economic infrastructure—not discretionary generosity. In the U.S., 13.7% of households experienced food insecurity in 2024, impacting millions of working families and signaling stress within regional labor markets. As cost-of-living pressures persist and metro regions like North Texas continue to grow rapidly, business leaders are reassessing…

Fraud has quietly become one of the most existential threats in Texas’s deregulated retail electricity market—because the business runs on razor-thin margins and delayed payment. Under the non-POR system overseen by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT), retail energy providers assume the full risk of nonpayment. With profit margins often measured in just a…

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape recruiting—from resume screening and job descriptions to candidate sourcing and interview workflows—the hiring process has become faster, more automated, and increasingly complex. According to the World Economic Forum, approximately 88% of companies now use some form of AI to filter or rank job applications, signaling how deeply embedded automation…

Salesforce offers a broad ecosystem of tools and integrations, giving organizations flexibility but also introducing constant decisions about when to buy, build, or customize.

That balance is a…

Salesforce gives organizations the ability to automate marketing, personalize outreach, and manage leads at scale—but those benefits only materialize when complex capabilities are implemented cohesively. A successful Marketing Cloud implementation requires more than individual features working in isolation. Through its Salesforce Practice, CG Infinity brings together Marketing Cloud capabilities—including Email Studio, Automation Studio, and…

Successful Salesforce initiatives rely on alignment as much as technology. When partners stay focused on delivery rather than shared priorities, projects risk meeting technical requirements without achieving real business success. The strongest outcomes come from teams that treat client priorities as the foundation for every decision and operate from a clear client philosophy. That…

Salesforce can be a powerful growth platform, but its complexity can put inexperienced organizations at a disadvantage. Without strong in-house expertise, leaders may struggle to assess recommendations, push back on unnecessary scope, or determine whether proposed solutions truly support business outcomes. Over time, this can lead to overbuilt systems, excess cost, and decisions driven…

Pooja Arya, VP of Delivery and Technical Solutions Leader at CG Infinity, reflects on a recent Salesforce engagement that exemplified what meaningful delivery looks like when execution, alignment, and outcomes come together.

In today’s enterprise tech landscape, successful Salesforce implementations hinge less on shiny features and more on how well partners align with the real, day-to-day needs of the business. The firms that stand out are the ones that treat delivery as a shared mission—where strategy, execution, and accountability are woven together from the first conversation…
