ICE Interface Developed For Nicor

August - 2005

Nicor Gas has been a satisfied client of Data Management Solutions (DMS) since 1994. Nicor’s Gas Supply Group uses DMS’ GasPro software to manage their gas trading, scheduling and accounting. As Nicor’s trading with IntercontinentalExchange®‘s ICE Trading Platform increased, their need for integration with the GasPro system increased.

Taking advantage of the numerous APIs offered by ICE for accessing futures and OTC markets, DMS developed an interface that automatically captures deals entered and closed on the ICE bulletin board. Once closed on ICE, the deals are immediately downloaded to their GasPro system, where they are displayed in the Trader’s screen. This integration has eliminated the need for double entry into both systems and the possibility of missing a transaction. Many of DMS’s clients use the ICE Trading Platform, and the ICE Interface software integration will be available to all clients in the future.

Nicor corporation’s largest subsidiary, Nicor Gas, was founded in 1954 as Northern Illinois Gas and today is one of the largest natural gas distribution companies in the country, serving more than two million customers in 641 communities. Nicor Gas operates a network of more than 32,000 miles of pipelines, connected to the largest underground storage facilities in the country. This helps ensure reliable natural gas delivery to customers year round. Visit their website at www.nicor.com.
