1. A utility management system for tracking performance relating to utility usage, the system comprising:

  • at least one storage device configured to store information indicating intervals of utility usage data for a first time period and information indicating intervals of utility usage data for a second time period different from the first time period;

    a computer processor coupled to the storage device, the processor configured to;

    automatically synchronize intervals of utility usage data of the first time period with corresponding intervals of utility usage data of the second time period such that the utility usage data for one or more day(s) in the first time period is synchronized with utility usage data for one or more corresponding respective day(s) in the second time period, where each corresponding respective day in the synchronized second time period is exactly 364 days or an integer multiple thereof after each day in the synchronized first time period, and wherein each corresponding respective day in the synchronized first time period is a same day of the week as the corresponding respective day of the week in the synchronized second time period;

    automatically compute at least one cost comparison associated with utility usage data for the synchronized one or more day(s); and
