**Companies** is the directory of the organizations the platform works with: the **resource-supply companies** that provide the metered resources, and the **service companies** that maintain equipment. Reach them from the **Companies** menu (**Resource Suppliers** and **Service Companies**).

## Resource suppliers

Each row shows a company's **Name**, the **Resource** it supplies, its **Subdivision**, contact **Email** and **Phone**, and its **Time Zone**.

Use **Search in table** and the resource filter to find a company, **+ New company** to add one, and **Expand** / **Collapse** to work with the supplier–branch–subdivision hierarchy. Service companies are managed the same way under **Service Companies**.
