  6. Oracle Utilities Field Work

  7. Collaborate more effectively • Prioritization of work • Promote efficient allocation of personnel • Accurately record results • Measure performance • Eliminate work silos Field Work • Respond faster • Improve knowledge sharing • Optimize workforce management & visibility • Ensure a safe workplace • Provide timely, cost-effective service while achieving SLAs • Meet regulatory requirements

  8. Current approaches to problem solving Reactive Disparate Systems Field Crews • Revenue loss • Operational anomalies • Compromised safety • Dissatisfied customers Regulatory Assets Customer AMI Meter Data Weather Events TAKE AWAY Traditional field work process leaves utilities vulnerable

  9. Anticipate, avoid, solve Proactive Field Crews • Optimized workflow • Protected revenue • Exceptional service Regulatory Assets Customer AMI Meter Data Interoperability Weather Events TAKE AWAY Interoperability is the key to proactive problem solving

  10. Interoperability • Devices: • Maintain asset/device configuration • Manage asset/device lifecycle drive operational efficiency • Orchestrate events • Communicate with remote devices • Generate work requests related to devices Interoperability • Mobile Workers: • Visualize work and crews • Manage 3rd party contractors • Plan and schedule field work • Route assignments • Dispatch and monitor progress • Record results Collaboration Visibility Prioritization Speed Accuracy Mobile Workforce Management • Performance: • Incorporate/analyze multiple data sets • Identify trends • Anticipate problems Service Order Management Meter Data Management Analytics Operational Device Management TAKE AWAY Connectivity drives value-based field work

  11. Oracle UtilitiesField work interoperability demonstration

  12. Demonstration #1 Agenda • Firmware update failure • Meter inspection • Meter exchange • Event analysis • Execute maintenance initiative

  13. Mobile Workforce Management Demonstration #1 Interoperability • #12 - ANALYTICS – Analyst can review a dashboard that indicates that the meter class is “trending” in terms of failures etc. Analyst can then schedule the service requests within MWM for the replacement via ODM Meter needs to be exchanged Meter Exchanged • #2 - SGG sends “Device Event”  to MDM of firmware update failure (SGG – MDM) • #11 - SOM updates ODM & MDM with completion info – new meter information and location details (SOM – ODM/MDM) • #3 - MDM sends “Device Event” message to ODM (MDM – ODM) • #4 - ODM creates a “Service Order” request to SOM - SOM creates “Service Order” to investigate meter (ODM – SOM) • #5 - SOM sends the “Service Order” to investigate meter  to MWM (SOM – MWM) • #8 - FW –  Creates a “Pick Up Order”  to Exchange Meter – Field Worker exchanges meter - Updates MWM with new meter information (FW – MWM) • #7 - Field Worker (Crew) receives the Service Order for the meter inspection activity – on Inspection determines that the meter needs to be exchanged (FW) • #1 - Meter ‘Alerts’ AMI of firmware update failure “Device Event” (AMI – SGG) • #9 – Field Worker then completes both the service order for the inspection and the Pick Up order – completion information is sent to MWM (FW – MWM) • #10 - MWM notifies SOM of completion and provides new meter information (MWM – SOM) • #6 - MWM schedules/assign/dispatches the service order to a Field Worker or Crew (MWM to Field Worker) • Service Order Management • Operational Device Management 9 6 8 4 10 Connectivity of systems 2 12 • Field • Worker • Analytics • AMI • Smart Grid Gateway • Meter Data Management 3 11 1 11 5

  14. Mobile version 2.2 Enhancements • Collaboration • Mobile device application updates synchronization • Complex work • Crew safety notification • Mobile device attachments processing • Contractor management • Visibility: • Hierarchies for crew & service areas • Display, sort & filter Gantt • User defined icons • Location based alerts (Polygon features) • Route replay (actual vs planned) • Prioritization: • Activity time window profile • Scheduler - activity based priority setting • Preferred zone based appt booking • Prerequisite activities • Speed: • Cost profiles & changes without restarting • Configuration management assistant • Schedule diagnosis tool • HTML 5 compliant • Additional calendar templates • Accuracy: • Configuration management assistant • Schedule diagnosis tool • Information lifecycle management • Persistent map edits • Timesheets

  15. Demonstration #2 Agenda • Overview (Complex work) • Location based alerts • Route replay • HTML 5 compliant mobile client • Contractor management
