Reduce Work Order No. 1424073 from $4,430,427 to $2,530,400. <br />BACKGROUND: <br />All divisions within Riverside Public Utilities (RPU) rely on data to make operational and fiscal decisions. <br />Thousands of data points are collected daily from field equipment and monitoring devices, electric and <br />water meters, customer interactions and financial transactions. The data is stored in various formats, <br />such as spreadsheets, Microsoft Access databases, and a variety of systems (such as enQuesta <br />Customer Information System) that are not integrated with one another, which makes generating reports <br />and analyzing data cumbersome and inefficient. <br />The Operational Data Management System (ODMS) is foundational for Utility 2.0, as it will serve as a <br />"data hub ", or central repository, to collect, analyze and make data - driven decisions from all systems that <br />collect and store data throughout the utility. ODMS will be the backbone of future operational <br />technologies such as distribution automation, outage management system, smart metering, meter data <br />management system, and asset management. It integrates previously nonintegrated data and <br />transforms it into meaningful information that can be displayed and consumed through visual tools such <br />as dashboards and reports. In addition to providing readily available and easy to consume information, <br />ODMS provides an enhanced analytics platform that RPU can leverage to improve operational <br />performance (see Figure 1). <br />
