• Reduced Operational and Maintenance Costs

The customer strategized to migrate old DMS and OMS system into GEs PowerOn Advantage ADMS and integrated it with existing IT/OT systems like GIS, SAP, MDM, ADR, etc. using industry standard protocols.

Outcome Delivered

• Improved asset management through a centralized consolidated GIS.
• Easy viewing, querying, and report generation.
• Improved operational efficiency.

Cyient Solution

Cyient integrated existing GIS with ADMS on standard CIM based protocol for bulk and incremental network creation and topology building.
The applications include State Estimation (SE), Network Connectivity Analysis (NCA), Distribution Power Flow (DPF), Load Shed Application (LSA), Smart Switching and Group Telecontrols, Integrated Volt-VAR Optimization and Control, Automatic Fault Detection, Isolation and System Restoration (FDIR), Contingency Analysis, Optimal Feeder Reconfiguration, Switching Procedure Management, OMS Prediction Logics, OMS Trouble Call Management, Dispatcher Training Simulator (DTS), Reports and Interactive Dashboards.

The main objective of the “Project on Improving the Reliability of Electric Power Supply” is to promote economic development. A reliable electricity supply is a key requirement to support the growth of local industries, promote local trade and create employment opportunities.

Outcome Delivered

• Efficient real-time operation of network with optimal utilization of assets.
• Improve situational awareness: Achieve full network visibility, and avoid overloading assets, with real-time distribution power flow.
• End-to-end Distribution Management: Take control of high and low voltage networks, with connected data models and scalable technology to manage active networks at all levels.

• Quicker service restoration.
• Enhanced customer service.

Cyient Solution

• Requirement gathering.
• Customization and implementation of PowerOn.

Interface development and integration with:

• SAP Customer care and Marketing System (CCMS).
• SAP Business Warehouse System (BW).
• SAP Enterprise Work Management System (EWMS).
• ABB Distribution Management System (DMS).
• Intergraph G/Electric System.
• In-house systems: Customer supply point System and Low Voltage Schematic System.
• Testing & Commissioning.

The client had been evaluating the way to “know a customer without power before they call”. As part of this, the customer integrated their AMI system with OMS. However, the client experienced performance degradation during storms; erroneous data was flowing into the OMS with data collision leading the loss of outage report.

Outcome Delivered

Cyient helped the client to resolve the challenge by developing MOP as an intermediate layer which processes and filters the AMI data received and sends valid and useful information into the OMS. This allows AMI data availability to the OMS even during storms and large outages.

Cyient Solution

Cyient developed a MOP layer to effectively integrate AMI and OMS systems. The following are the key features of MOP:

• Filtered and required that the AMI information was sent to OMS, which helps in overcoming performance degradation issues during storm mode.
• Sending exact device information where the outage is, rather than sending all received meter events.
• AMI system is made available to OMS in storm & large outage modes.
