PowerStream is leveraging the PI System to improve the operation and management of its Operations division. The PI System is key to implementing Risk Based Condition Based Maintenance in its Station department. This presentation will demonstrate how the PI System is fully integrated to its CMMS and how valuable information is made available to all stakeholders to make operational decisions in real time. The continued in-house development of the Asset Framework and the use of the PI System suite of products and interfaces has provided even greater value and critical information to those that need to know when events occur throughout the system. The creation of PI Notifications and various PI System reports has enabled easy communication of key operational data via dashboards throughout the company utilizing the PI System tools. This session will also demonstrate the expanded use of the PI System in other PowerStream divisions (MicroGrid, Distribution Automation and System Dashboards) as the company continues to grow.
