SMART METERTEXAS Proposed Enhancements to Smart Meter Texas Methodology
Enhanced Methodology Overview COMMUNICATIONS Scope - AMIT Functionality Matrix and Priorities Business Functional Flows Business Process Inventory Release Critical Success Factors * Enhanced Deliverables in Red * Existing Deliverables in Black Market Email Notices SMT Status meetings AMIT meetings Business Analysis - AMIT Business Requirements Use Cases Functional Design – SMT Team Requirements Traceability Matrix Interfaces Logical Data Model User Interface Design – AMIT &SMT Team Prototype OR Mock Up Technical Design – AMIT & SMT Team Technical Requirements Definition and Flows Technical Specifications Physical Data Model Physical Design / Build / Test – SMT Team Detail Code Design Code – Unit Test Data Base Design / Schemas Market Email Notices SMT Status meetings AMIT meetings UAT Test – SMT Team Test Plan Test Scripts COMMUNICATIONS
New Scope Phase and Scope Deliverables • The Scope Phase Provides the Following: • Defines Solution Purpose and Functionality • Provides Foundation for Release Management and Change Control • Provides Direction and Priorities for the Business Analysis phase and all Subsequent Phases • Facilitates Consensus and Common Understanding Among Participants • Defines Release Critical Success Factors COMMUNICATIONS Scope Business Analysis Functional Design User Interface Design p Technical Design Physical Design / Build / Test UAT Test COMMUNICATIONS
New Scope Phase and Scope Deliverables • Functionality Matrix Example Deliverable: R1 • limited to 1 Admin • unavailable
New Scope Phase and Scope Deliverables • Business Functional Flow Example Deliverable:
New Scope Phase and Scope Deliverables • Release Critical Success Factors Example Deliverable: • Release Critical Success Factors for Smart Meter Texas Release 1 • The solution must provide a common web portal • The user online interface must be intuitive and easy to use by consumers • The solution must provide a secure environment for confidentiality, user access and data transfer • The solution must provide the information necessary in which the customer can make an informed decision regarding consumption • The solution must be provide a common format to manage meter and In-Home Device functions • The solution must be based on existing open industry standards • The solution must be based on a common interoperable platform
Technical Design Phase New Deliverable • Technical Requirements Definition and Flow: Typical Examples • SMT Business Validation • Portal access, Web service, FTP • Push to REP, Pull from SMT • Non-functional requirements
SMART METERTEXAS Proposed Change Control Process
Change Control Process AMIT Reviews Change Control Detail Requests at 1st Monthly AMIT Market Change Control Meeting AMIT or Market Participant Fills Out and Submits Change Control Detail Request to PUCT PUCT Assigns Change Control Number and Enters in Change Control Log AMIT Approve / Reject AMIT Defines Priority and Potential Release for Change at 1st Monthly AMIT Market Change Control Meeting SMT Team Submits Impact Analysis Including the Time Estimate, and Cost Estimate to PUCT SMT Team Conducts Impact Analysis Including: Functions Impact, Time Estimate, and Cost Estimate Approve Reject PUCT Approve / Reject Archive Change Control Detail Request and Mark Change Control Log as Rejected Refine Priority and Define Release for Change During the 2nd Monthly AMIT Market Change Control Meeting Review Change Control Detail Requests & Impact Analysis at the 2nd Monthly AMIT Market Change Control Meeting Approve Reject Market Approve / Reject Poll Market to Identify if a Market Participant Wishes to Fund the Change Acquire Signatures on Approved Change Control Form and Submit to SMT Team for Project Planning Approve Archive Change Control Detail Request and Mark Change Control Log as Rejected Reject
SMART METERTEXAS Proposed Issue Escalation Process
Proposed Issue / Requirements Clarification Escalation Process Application Development SMT and AMIT Conduct AMIT SMT Methodology for Release COMMUNICATIONS Market Email Notices SMT Status meetings AMIT meetings SMT Team or AMIT Identifies Issue Needing Resolution or Clarification AMIT Submits Resolution to SMT Team SMT Team or AMIT Fills Out and Submits Issue Description Form to PUCT Jenina Manages Issue Documentationfor Review at Next AMIT Meeting SMT Team Develops Proposed Resolution Options AMIT Reviews Issue and Selects / Refines Resolution Option Market Email Notices SMT Status meetings AMIT meetings COMMUNICATIONS
SMART METERTEXAS Next Steps
Proposed AMIT Methodology and Next Steps • Release 1 Functionality Matrix • Release 1 Business Process Flows • Release 1 Business Technical Flows • Business Requirements Review
