Florida's largest natural gas distributor serving 500k customers
TECO Peoples Gas operates Florida's primary gas distribution network across a sprawling physical infrastructure, backed by a heavy SAP enterprise suite (S/4HANA, EAM, Field Service Management, BusinessObjects). Current hiring acceleration in engineering and ops—with mid-level engineers dominating the mix—paired with active projects in network modeling, data governance, and S/4HANA implementation signals a company modernizing legacy utility infrastructure while managing tight regulatory and safety constraints (damage prevention, permits, compliance).
Peoples Gas is Florida's largest natural gas distribution utility, serving 500,000 homes and businesses across the state. The company operates a complex physical network of transmission and distribution assets, supported by SAP enterprise systems (EAM for asset management, Field Service Management for technician dispatch, S/4HANA for general ledger and procurement). Recent initiatives include strategic network planning, federated data models, and a defined enterprise data and AI strategy. The business faces operational challenges typical of regulated utilities: managing downtime, preventing pipeline damage, securing environmental permits, and maintaining compliance with safety statutes. Peoples Gas is a subsidiary of Emera Inc., headquartered in Halifax, Nova Scotia.
