SpryPoint Named to Fast Company's Best Workplaces for Innovators

SpryPoint, a leading provider of CIS Modernization and cloud-native solutions for utilities, has been named to Fast Company's 2026 Best Workplaces for Innovators in the emerging enterprise category (201-999 employees). This recognition reflects the company's culture of continuous innovation, which extends across its people, client partnerships, and cloud-native utility technology solutions.

Founded in 2011, SpryPoint builds and delivers integrated, cloud-native software solutions to empower utilities to serve customers better, operate more efficiently, and provide new levels of business visibility and data-driven decision-making. Today, more than 100 utilities across the Americas rely on SpryPoint to modernize billing, customer engagement, and field operations to transform their business. In 2025, SpryPoint was recognized as a Deloitte Technology Fast 50™ company in Canada and a Deloitte Technology Fast 500™ company in North America.

SpryPoint's CEO and co-founder, Kyle Strang, shared, "Innovation has been essential to how we work from day one. We started SpryPoint a decade-plus ago because we believed utilities deserved a better kind of CIS partner and needed a more innovative technology solution. That same thinking still drives us today. Our people are always looking for better ways to solve problems, work with our clients, and help utilities serve their communities."

The recognition comes as SpryPoint has scaled significantly. The company grew revenue 616% over four years and expanded from approximately 50 employees in 2022 to more than 370 today. Alongside that growth, SpryPoint has continued to invest in the people, processes, technology, and partnerships required to serve a growing community of utilities.

SpryPoint's culture of continuous innovation is evident in three key areas. First, the company invests in people and new ways of working. SpryPoint created its "Center of Excellence" to give employees the training, mentorship, hands-on experience, and support required to serve the increasingly complex needs of utilities. Its "Office of AI" is extending that investment across the company through AI tools, training, experimentation, and practical applications that help employees improve processes and create new ways of working.

Second, SpryPoint works closely with clients and partners to solve real-world challenges. For example, Dakota Electric collaborated with SpryPoint to develop functionality that supports managing and administering capital credits directly within the CIS environment, creating greater transparency, consistency, and operational efficiency around a process fundamental to the cooperative business model.

Third, SpryPoint builds a platform for continuous innovation. The company's cloud-native platform was designed to move utilities beyond the traditional cycle of major software upgrades, extensive customization, and disconnected applications. The model enables continuous product development and delivery, supported by secure integrations across the utility technology ecosystem. Feedback and ideas from clients, partners, implementation teams, support professionals, and product teams continually inform the roadmap, turning what SpryPoint learns in the field into improvements that can benefit utilities across the Americas.

These three areas reinforce one another. Investing in people creates stronger teams and new ideas. Working closely with clients and partners turns real utility challenges into opportunities to innovate. A cloud-native technology model provides a foundation for turning those ideas into capabilities that can be delivered continuously to clients.

Strang added, "Innovation and our best ideas start with a member of our team seeing a better way to do something, a client bringing us a problem we haven't solved before, or a partner adding a different perspective. Our job is to listen, learn, and turn those ideas into something that makes a difference for our clients. I'm proud of our team for building that kind of culture, and it's great to see it recognized by Fast Company."

Being named one of Fast Company's Best Workplaces for Innovators recognizes something that has been central to SpryPoint from the beginning: innovation works best when talented people are given the tools and opportunity to challenge what exists, collaborate with clients and partners, and continually find better ways to help utilities operate and serve their communities.
