Utilities depend on a growing number of remote assets (radios, sensors, switches, and critical field devices) to keep networks reliable and operations resilient. But how do you know if those assets are optimized and operating? Too often, utilities rely on fragmented tools, manual field visits, or siloed systems that only alert when something breaks. A modern Network Management System (NMS) can transform that picture and turn scattered data into actionable insights, improving uptime, and extending asset life.
This session will explore how utilities can evaluate, select, and implement the right NMS for their environment. Drawing from real-world experience, we’ll discuss:
– What matters most in evaluating NMS platforms for utility-scale operations.
– How to integrate asset monitoring across diverse devices and vendors.
– Keys to successful deployment—from scalability to training to change management.
– Practical outcomes: proactive decision making, reduced truck rolls, faster fault isolation, and higher network resilience.
Attendees will leave with a framework to assess their current asset visibility, identify gaps, and build a roadmap toward proactive monitoring.
