‘the VEE functions and AMI performance should be considered highest priority, requiring the AMI interface to be the first functionality implemented for ODS’
Smart AssistantSmart Assistant
Some of the first options to be considered are integration with OMS and WFM to ensure that
work orders are not being created for the purpose of servicing
meters which have been disconnected for non-payment (for example). Integration to
some degree will be required with WFM and OMS for this
purpose.

Smart Meter ExperienceWorked with early implementers of Smart
Meters by helping them store and analyse the interval data coming from the AMCC

Smart Assistant Suite Methodology
Use as many standards from the planned MDM/R as possible to avoid duplication for LDC
Use industry standard software where possibleKeep the ‘nice to have’ features to a minimumDevelop applications as identified by user
Smart Assistant
Smart Assistant Suiteis ready now!
AMI interface fully compliant with Sensus & Elster as well as others
Dashboard showing AMI performance indicators with drill down working
VEE fully functional to Provincial standardsReporting package showing all meter events
and errorsAdditional features ready or in beta test

identified by Smart Assistant information can be prepared for export to a third party Workforce Management System
Using information sent by the AMCC information can be prepared for export to a third party Outage Management System
Using information sent by the CIS system SA can filter requests to 3rd party WFM or OMS

What we will do
Provide a complete ASP serviceOnly an AS2 software package is required by
the LDC24 hour access via secure web browserComplete back upTransition to MDM/R report interpretation
Smart Assistant
What we will doAllow you to explore Smart Assistant with
your interval data for a week or so (NDA required)
Provide up to 90 days after signing contract to cancel if SA does not work as claimed
Smart Assistant
Smart Assistant SuiteReceives
synchronization files from CIS and set up account/meter expectations
Receives CMEP/Elster interval data files from AMCC and processes the kWh into database
Provides reports & exceptions from high level to detail in accordance with the IESO/MDMR standards
Applies the Ontario Standard VEE process to all interval data with reporting at the same level as the MDMR
Smart Assistant
Smart Assistant SuiteSynchronization files
from CIS are required at some point but not required to start using SmartAsssitant
CMEP/Elster interval data files from AMCC are required but an interim custom interface can be developed
Dashboard is available and working now
Meter event tracking is available and working
Smart Assistant
Smart Assistant SuiteAllows drill down to
actual problemsAllows edit of problems
and recreates a CMEP/Elster file for reprocessing
Accepts billing request file (MDMR pull) from CIS and then reports on status of accounts requested
Prepares the billing response file (MDMR
pull) and provides the report of accounts billed/not billed
Transfers the billing response file back to the CIS
Smart Assistant
Smart Assistant SuiteUsing web based
PowerView all/any interval data (VEE hourly)
can be graphed, aggregated, costed by HOEP or
RPP TOUcomparedoverlayed
Using Smart Assistant billing module a comparison bill (RPP
to RPPTOU) for any meter can be prepared
All data can be exported or printed
Smart Assistant
Smart Assistant SuiteSince the Smart Assistant Suite uses the same file and report structures that are in use by the IESO MDM/R
IT development for the smart Assistant Suite is reusable when you enrol in the MDM/R
Staff trained for SmartAsssitant will be trained for the MDM/R
No custom interfaces are required to be abandoned when you switch to the MDM/R
Smart Assistant
Smart Assistant SuiteSince the Smart Assistant Suite uses the same file and report structures that are in use by the IESO MDM/R
All costs associated with the development setup and interfaces for SmartAsssitant should be recoverable.
CIS Vendor should have most standard interfaces already developed.
Transition to MDM/R should be easy.
Smart Assistant
Smart Assistant SuiteAfter MDM/R
implementation Smart Assistant accepts reports from the MDMR and presents them in a readable format allowing drill down to actual problem
Edit of the problem and a creation of a new CMEP\Elster file for export back to the MDM/R
Email notification of report receipt and errors to user selected responders
