History

Smile on their face, the BNPPF team was proud that day to hold on a special 'Congratulations' certificate from BeOptimized. They can all attest that BeOptimized significantly improved the performance of their SAS process used by their business users since 2016 ! More precisally, thanks to advanced SAS programming techniques which are part of our SAS Code Optimization service , their process is now 5 times faster than before !

BeGees is an internal BeOptimized project focused on the understanding of the energy consumption and production at BeOptimized.
It's an end-to-end project realized in pure Python code. The data are extracted from a smart-meter and web cam connected to a Raspberry Pi. Then the data are pushed to a MySQL database thanks to a Rest API.
Finally the data are surfaced into a web browser thanks to Django. In this project we also use Docker-Compose in order to manage several containers hosted on a NAS server. More info

Created in 2017 the BeOptimized Tips and tricks service was improved and yield now to a SAS Expert certificate ! These super students followed every Friday for 9 weeks, a condensed course of SAS programming language: Data Step processing, array manipulation, do loop, flat files ingestion, formats, Proc SQL, macro variables and macro programs… they master the end-to-end SAS data manipulation technics and believe me, they are real SAS Experts ! Congratulations to the entire team, … you all made a great job!

BeOptimized goes GREEN

In 2021, BeOptimized invested in 17 Solar Panels with a total installed power of 5780 Wp. The expected annual energy production is around 5MWh. With that production, BeOptimized will produce more energy than it consumes, and the surplus will go to the grid where someone else will consume this 100% green energy.
In parallel of that investment, BeOptimized replaced his DIESEL CAR with a 100% ELECTRIC CAR , directly connected to the solar panels.
This completes the investments made previous years at the office such as: double glasses everywhere, roof isolated, automatic Velux shutters, gas condensing boiler, electric reversible climate control and real time electricity consumption monitoring…
