  1. Enterprise InformationManagement at AEP Frank Wilhoit, Information Architect 9 March 2011

  2. Agenda • AEP Overview • Technology Portfolio • EIM Philosophy • Implementation Approaches • Questions?

  3. AEP Statistics • AEP is an integrated utility with lines of business for Generation, Distribution, and Transmission. • ~ 38 GW of generation capacity in the United States. • Largest transmission system (~ 39000 miles). • Serves > 5M customers in 11 states: OH, MI, IN, KY, VA, WV, TN, OK, TX, AR, LA. • ~1.4M smart meters in TX, ~120K in OH, < 20K each in IN and OK

  4. Technology Portfolio • AMI: Landis+Gyr (TX) and Silver Spring (IN, OH, OK) • MDM: Oracle (ex Lodestar) • CIS: mainframe, homebrew (based on CustomerOne) • OMS: GE PowerOn • DMS: GE ENMAC  GENe • Ventyx AssetSuite, Logica STORMS, Itron LD-PRO, etc. ad infinitum • This slide and the preceding one came to data volume. Hold That Thought.

  5. CIM == Global Content Model • IEC 61968 • Published • Part 9 : metering • Part 3 : outage management • Part 4 : asset management / geospatial • In-progress • Part 8 : customer • IEC 62325 : Energy markets

  6. Information is More Than Content • Why is data volume a problem? • Because we don’t know how to manage it. • Why do we not know how to manage it? • Because we haven’t modelled the behavior of the information that it represents. • Behavior == Process • CIM doesn’t have this (yet?)

  7. How Do You Model Process? • Ask people to tell/show you what they do. • This did not work for us. It probably doesn’t matter why. OR • Follow your information. • Trace object lifecycles from creation, through enrichment/evolution, to irrelevance. • These are the processes that actually happen within your systems.

  8. The Ontology is the Universal Enabler • Actionable metadata • Content • Behavior • Maintain as UML models (like CIM, but including behavior) • Generate all downstream artifacts • Code (Java, C/C++, C#, whatever) • Database schema • Test cases • Documentation • We’re not there yet
