ESRI s scalable technology platform, ArcGIS, comprises an SOA-compliant set of GIS software components integrating core utility workflows. From asset management to operations support, ArcGIS delivers predictive analytics that enables utilities to anticipate and respond to business challenges more quickly and cost-effectively powerful software platform, uniquely positioned to provide network visibility and control, process automation and business collaboration for solutions across the energy value chain. IBM Solution Architecture For Energy and Utilities Framework The U.S. electric system, "the supreme engineering achievement of the 20th century," is aging, inefficient, congested, and incapable of meeting future energy needs, according to a recent U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) report. Believed to be the solution to modernize utilities around the world, a smart grid adds communication and computer technology to electric networks, ensuring cleaner, more reliable, and more affordable energy. GIS is the information-management platform on which utilities rely for crucial smart grid components such as data management, analysis, vulnerability planning, risk analysis, mobile workforce support, visualization, and operations awareness. ESRI s ArcGIS software is widely recognized for its strong role in building and managing the digital asset management information systems for electric power and gas transmission and distribution networks as well as telecommunications systems worldwide. For most of the world s utilities, ArcGIS provides the most comprehensive inventory of the electrical distribution network components and their spatial locations. The goal of a smart utility is to have the capability to understand, manage, and predict the state of the system from the worker s dashboard to the boardroom, from the sensor to both the utility and the customers. ArcGIS extends the IBM Solution Architecture For Energy and Utilities Framework providing the tools, applications, workflows, analytics, and information-integration capabilities needed to manage the smarter utility. IBM s SAFE Framework enables utilities to extract value from information and leverage all data sources, especially those data sources such as facility infrastructure, assets, customers, and workers that are location-based ArcGIS authors, or creates, the spatial information about utility assets (poles, pipes, wires, transformers, duct banks, customers) and serves that information to the enterprise. Within the infrastructure of SAFE, ArcGIS drives core utility business applications dynamically, combining data served from the GIS, SCADA, and customer systems with other information from outside the utility such as traffic, weather systems, or satellite imagery. Utilities use this combined information for business applications, from visualizing a common operating picture to inspection and maintenance to network analysis and planning. Company and Solution Description Fifty percent of Tier 1 energy companies, 80% of all water companies, and 70% of all government utilities throughout the world rely on ESRI's GIS solutions to spatially enable their as-built environments, manage their operations, respond to emergencies, and provide better services to constituents. GIS is the software and web tools necessary to help utilities like DTE, NiSource, Sempra, DCWASA, Centerpoint, and the Cities of Copus Christi, Honolulu, and Chesapeake, by improving asset and work management, maintenance, and mobile workforce management.

Benefits of ESRI ArcGIS for utilities: ArcGIS brings strong geo-analytics, information management, and workforce enablement technology to the IBM SAFE Framework. ArcGIS allows utilities to visualize the electric, gas, and communications systems and the relationship that exists between them. A smarter utility uses GIS to monitor and express the health of the energy system such as driving alerts and visualizing sensors that fail to meet service levels. ArcGIS manages temporal information on the condition of utility assets including data from sensors, instruments, field workers, and other dynamic information sources. ArcGIS also helps utilities understand the relationship of networks with surroundings. Because GIS can help identify relationships between systems and the environment, it is an essential tool for vulnerability prediction, risk assessment, restoration, storm tracking, and security monitoring. ArcGIS provides a spatial context to the analytics and metrics of a smart grid. With GIS, utilities can track performance over time and provide a convenient means of visualizing trends. A smart grid, with GIS is capable of providing advanced grid performance analytics, tracking trends in equipment performance and customer behavior, and recording key performance indicators. ArcGIS communicates the condition of the network to customers, management, and the utility workforce, providing a dynamic, real-time common operational picture anytime, via multiple delivery models. ESRI and IBM: A Closer Look Within the IBM SAFE Framework, specifically the servicesoriented architecture built upon IBM WebSphere software, ESRI technology addresses four of the core functional needs of modern utilities. Spatial Information Management. The digital system-ofrecord of any utility information system is the geodatabase, comprised of all location-dependent information, whether the assets are fixed, move, or change condition. IBM Maximo EAM software relies on ArcGIS Server for dynamic data management and visualization. ESRI supports the management of geodatabases in IBM DB2 and Informix 13
