From Humble Beginnings...
NES was founded in 1968 and purchased by current ownership in 1988. In 1988 there was one employee: the owner. The first year he used a Commodore64 to type the utility bills for his first client which was an apartment community in St Petersburg, Florida. Today, the same owner oversees 100+ team members who send millions of utility bills every year. Throughout the decades, one thing hasn't changed: the friendly and professional service that sets NES apart in the utility management industry.
