1 Improving ROI by Leveraging Server for Data Analytics Subrahmanyam(Subbu) Pendyala Anil Jayavarapu June 29, 2016

2 Agenda About Pepco Holdings GIS at Pepco Holdings Analytics Business Needs Current Approach: Mixed Bag New Approach: Leveraging for Server for Analytics 2

3 About Pepco Holdings Provides electric service to approximately 2 million customers in Washington DC Maryland Delaware New Jersey Operating Companies Pepco Delmarva Power Atlantic City Electric 3

4 GIS at Pepco Holdings Departments and Business Processes Supported By GIS System Planning Distribution Engineering Transmission Drafting Construction Maintenance Outage Management Reliability Vegetation Management Tax Accounting Situational Awareness Who is Using GIS? 4

5 GIS at Pepco Holdings Desktop GIS () : 2251 (Editors + View Only) Web GIS (Portal for ) : 933 Users Cloud GIS ( Online) : 140 Users Mobile GIS ( Explorer) : 120 Mobile GIS ( Collector) : 60 40% Of the Employees How many are using GIS? 5

6 GIS Value Proposition Business Management Visualization Maps: - Desktop - Web - Mobile Network Data Management Business Process Support and Automation: - Records - System Planning - Engineering & Design - Outage Restoration Analytics: - Data Governance - Asset Trends - Operation Trends - Customer Trends - Business Intelligence 6

7 Analytics: Business Needs Bi-Weekly Equipment with more than one FeederID De-energized Missing data Invalid geometry checks Un-Split line check for fuses, open points and switches Conflicts in database GIS: Beyond Maps Monthly Inspections Vegetation management Yearly Circuit mileage Pole mileage Quarterly Ad-hoc Asset tax reporting Device Counts by Feeder, System, Grid Transformers count by feeder and ward 7

8 Measure(s) Analytics: Business Need Categories Asset Reporting Inspection Trends Installation Trends Aging Trends Reliability Trends Customer Trends - By Feeder - By Asset Type - By Region GIS: Enabling Analytics Data Diagnostics What is updated in the last week, month, quarter, year? Is the data quality getting better? What are the unposted changes? Business Reporting Designs By Operating Company/District Tax Reporting Time Multi-Dimensional Spatial Trends 8

9 Analytics: Current Approach Desktop Schneider Reporting Tool Data Reviewer Scripts VBA macros Custom Web Applications Compass (.ASP) An Analyst or End User has to spend time each time Evolution: -Multiple Tools -Customizations -Disintegrated -Manual Trending Portal Widgets Design Dashboard (Java Stack) Data Quality Dashboard (Java Stack) 9

10 Expectations: GIS/IT Strategy Continue to improve user satisfaction Implement generic tooling to address most (not all) requirements Provide automated trending Scalable and flexible Easy to deploy No programming No modeling Mandate: Reduce Customizations Leverage existing software Leverage existing hardware 10

11 New Approach: Metrics Extension to for Server GIS Data Trends Intelligence to Make Informed Decisions Business Policy Executives Managers Supervisors Consultants Administrators Analysts Employees 1 Define 2 Schedule 3 Compute 4 Share Metrics Publisher for Server Metrics Administrator Metrics Database 11

12 New Approach: Metrics Extension to for Server OPTIONS 1 Metrics Extension DEFINE SCHEDULE Administrator Desktop Application 2 Excel (Shared Folder) Server Object Extension (SOE)* REST Web Service COMPUTE SHARE Publisher Windows Service 3 Websites (html reports) GIS Automated Trending for Server Current Min Max Avg * Certified for Server 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3 Metrics (Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server) 4 5 Business Intelligence Tools Recent ~7d ~30d ~90d ~1y ~2y +/- % +/- % +/- % +/- % +/- % +/- % 12

13 Asset Counts by Feature Class and Subtype GIS Tree View: Low footprint asset history Metrics Extension for Server 13

14 Asset Counts by Feature Class and Subtype Pivot: Interactive Analytics Leveraging BI Timeline GIS Metrics Extension for Server Business Intelligence (Microstrategy) Filters Feature Class Subtype Asset Counts 14

15 Field Density GIS Metrics Extension for Server Business Intelligence (Microstrategy) Which assets(feature classes ) are well populated? Which fields are well populated on a asset? 15

16 Null Values GIS Metrics Extension for Server Data Governance Portal 16

17 Versions By Age and Depth Monitoring Data Edit Volume and Latency GIS Metrics Extension for Server Portal 17

18 Features With More Than One Feeder ID GIS Metrics Extension for Server Governing Data Discrepancies Causing Downstream Impact on Other Systems Portal 18

19 Count De-energized Features GIS Data Integrity: Minimizing Impact On Downstream Systems Metrics Extension for Server Portal Time Multi-Dimensional Spatial Trends 19

20 Poles By Service District and Year Installed GIS Metrics Extension for Server Business Intelligence (Microstrategy) Years Old

21 Circuit Mileage Which Circuits changed the most and by how much? (For Tax Reporting and System Planning) GIS Metrics Extension for Server Business Intelligence (Microstrategy) 21

22 Transformers Count By Phase and KVA GIS Understanding Regional Trends Metrics Extension for Server Business Intelligence (Microstrategy) 22

23 Count Poles by Type and Service District Multi-Dimensional Spatial Trends GIS Metrics Extension for Server Business Intelligence (Microstrategy) Understanding Regional Trends Time 23

24 Getting More Value Out of Server BEFORE NOW/FUTURE During the day Used for Web/Mobile Maps 8 to 10 Hours a Day In the Night Sleep Used for Crunching Analytics Day Night Weekends 24

25 Return on Investment (ROI): Metrics Extension to for Server Implement automated process to define and share analytics Asset reporting Data diagnostics Business reporting Faster response time to end user requests Exceed end user expectations by delivering trends periodically Reduce customizations Transition from a reactive to proactive posture 25
