Blu Banyan Wins NetSuite Spotlight Award for Transforming Solar Operations at Big Sun Solar
We’re thrilled to share some exciting news—Blu Banyan has been named the winner of Oracle NetSuite’s Spring 2025 Solution Provider Spotlight Award in the Energy/Solar Industry category! This recognition highlights the incredible impact of our work with Big Sun Solar, where we implemented our flagship software solution, SolarSuccess, to unify and streamline their operations.
At Blu Banyan, our mission is simple but powerful: help solar companies scale profitably through operational excellence. This award from NetSuite validates that commitment in a big way.
Partnering with Big Sun Solar for Scalable Growth
Big Sun Solar, a San Antonio-based commercial solar provider, came to us looking for a way to replace the patchwork of disconnected systems that were holding them back. They specialize in rooftop, canopy, and ground-mounted systems for commercial clients—work that demands precision, coordination, and reliable data.
That’s where SolarSuccess, built on the NetSuite platform, came in. Over a six-month implementation process, we worked closely with the Big Sun Solar team to transition their operations onto a unified, solar-specific platform. From the start, their team was clear about their goal: a system that could support their next phase of growth with full visibility and control.
“Switching to SolarSuccess built on NetSuite was a strategic move,” said Leanna Khrystyuk, VP of Finance at Big Sun Solar. “We wanted to unify our operations on a single, comprehensive platform tailored for the solar industry’s specific operational needs. From day one, Blu Banyan’s team provided unwavering support and brought deep expertise to the table.”
Turning Operational Friction into Strategic Advantage
The results? Transformational. With SolarSuccess in place, Big Sun Solar gained:
End-to-end visibility across their entire customer journey
Real-time cost tracking and data-driven forecasting
Streamlined project execution from sales to commissioning
Scalable financial and operational management tools
All powered by bluActions™, Blu Banyan’s proprietary technology that turns complex, ad-hoc project steps into a repeatable, assembly-line process. It’s a game-changer for solar businesses looking to scale efficiently and profitably.
“Our SolarSuccess solution with bluActions technology is revolutionizing how solar companies manage projects,” said Jan Rippingale, CEO of Blu Banyan. “We transform ad-hoc processes into a streamlined, repeatable assembly line of project actions. The results speak for themselves—our clients are reducing project-to-cash timelines by up to 40%.”
Why This Matters for the Solar Industry
As the solar sector continues to grow, companies face increasing pressure to deliver projects faster, manage tighter margins, and adapt to evolving customer expectations. SolarSuccess is designed specifically to meet these challenges head-on by aligning operations, finance, and project execution in one unified system.
This award isn’t just a win for Blu Banyan—it’s a signal that the solar industry is ready for smarter, more scalable tools that drive real business results.
