Delivering a UIQ AMI Head‑End System is complex under any conditions—but doing so alongside a major SAP S/4HANA CIS upgrade significantly heightens integration and delivery risk. Eversource is addressing this challenge by implementing a greenfield UIQ AMI integration framework designed to remain stable, scalable, and secure despite overlapping timelines, shared resources, and regulatory constraints.

This session highlights how Eversource advanced UIQ AMI integration blueprinting, design, and data governance while CIS SMEs remained focused on CIS delivery. Attendees will learn practical strategies such as reusable integration patterns, phased rollout of high‑risk interfaces, and early cross‑system dependency alignment. Eversource will also share lessons learned and early outcomes, including improved data quality, reduced manual workarounds, and more predictable delivery of UIQ AMI integration milestones.

Utilities are under increasing pressure to restore outages faster and with greater accuracy, yet many outage workflows still rely primarily on predictive models. This session presents a real‑world example from Powder River Energy Corporation (PRECorp), which operationalized Itron AMI data to improve outage detection, verification, and situational awareness.

By leveraging targeted AMI meter pings and power quality reads alongside OMS and GIS data, PRECorp can quickly confirm impacted customers, identify mislocated outage predictions, detect single‑phase outages, and validate restoration progress in near real time. Attendees will gain practical insight into how AMI data can be applied today—without replacing existing OMS platforms—to reduce uncertainty, improve dispatch decisions, and strengthen outage response outcomes, with lessons learned and paths toward standards‑based OMS integration.
