8 Work and Asset Management Survey Findings 8

9 Improving Asset Management Could Pay Big Dividends Vast majority of utility respondents stated that improving their current asset management would improve reliability (86%) and reduce O&M costs (70%) Source: BRIDGE Energy Group 2016 BRIDGE Index Asset Management is a critical enabler for improving operational performance, including reducing costs and improving reliability. Increasing capability through best practices and ISO is an important step. - BRIDGE Energy Group 9

10 Majority Still have Multiple Work Management Systems to be Integrated About half (52%) have multiple work management systems that need to be integrated/consolidated 32% of currently deployed work management systems are no longer covered by vendor support (down from 55% in 2014) Aligning system consolidation with standardized business processes yields greater benefits over the long term. Data aggregation and effective dashboards can present key metrics in the near term and help focus an asset management program. - BRIDGE Energy Group 10

11 Mobility Systems 30% of all respondents are planning on buying a new mobility system Half (50%) of large utilities (>1M meters) are satisfied with existing mobility product Only 20% of small-medium size utilities (<1M meters) are satisfied with existing mobility product A solid mobility platform has become a foundational technology for utilities. However, a crowded and confusing marketplace for mobile applications is making it difficult to identify and measure potential benefits. - BRIDGE Energy Group 11

12 Information Captured by Operational Mobility Systems Most common Work order completion GPS location Least common Equipment barcode scan Pictures for inspection To maximize the value of mobile solutions, implementation must be aligned with asset management best practices. - BRIDGE Energy Group 12

13 Scheduling/Dispatch Systems Only 19% of respondents need a new scheduling system 56% - Scheduling system is a component of another system System and data integration are critical for ensuring accurate and usable information for assets, materials, equipment, and resources. - BRIDGE Energy Group 13

14 Condition Health Monitoring Prevalent Predictive Maintenance is Not Condition health monitoring is prevalent across all size utilities Larger utilities (>1M meters) have the broadest use of condition health monitoring Minority (37%) are using analytics to predict maintenance Best practice is to use the condition health data to make informed maintenance and replacement decisions - BRIDGE Energy Group 14

15 Overarching Challenges 73% of respondents indicated that Integration of related systems and Limitations with current systems/tools are the biggest impediments to WAM related projects System and data integration projects are often identified as being the most important and beneficial efforts within organizations. - BRIDGE Energy Group 15
