Telvent
will implement its technology solution for the Public Utilities
Department of Anaheim, California
Madrid, July 14, 2005 - Telvent
(NASDAQ TLVT), the Global RealTime IT Company, announced that
the City of Anaheim Public Utilities Department (PUD), California,
is currently in production with a facilities management Geographic
Information System (GIS). The City of Anaheim Public Utilities
Department is a municipal utility serving more than 100,000
electric customers in a 50 square mile service area in southern
California.
In need of a state-of-the-art GIS
solution, the PUD selected ArcFM and ArcGIS for a facilities
management system. As part of the solution, they also requested
a single source of information for their capital plant and
equipment data in order to feed their work management system.
To fulfill this requirement, Telvent built SAGE-FEI, a web-based
application that leverages the openness of the ESRI technology
by using multi-versioned views for remotely viewing and editing
equipment-specific tabular data that reside in the ArcSDE
geodatabase.
The City's Utility Service Center
uses the system to input new equipment records and keep track
of equipment location from the time of purchase until disposal.
The Environmental Inspection department enters information
on PCB testing to monitor the PCB content of its devices and
generate standard reports from the database as required by
the State of California. Access to SAGE-FEI has been opened
to all City employees.
"SAGE-FEI has streamlined a core
part of our asset management process and provides more accurate
and timely asset data throughout the organization," said Jason
Kornoff, Electric GIS Analyst for Anaheim Public Utilities.
