Consulting Services

AMR and AMI initiatives are being undertaken by utilities of all types and sizes around the country driven by the cost savings, efficiency gains, customer service improvements and revenue cycle enhancements that are inherently produced by such projects. While AMR represents the majority of those projects, AMI is increasingly being considered due to its demand response and energy conservation capabilities. AMI enables utility customers to participate in reducing peak load during times when energy supply is tight and prices are high, or when system reliability is threatened. The ability to reduce demand through time-sensitive pricing, load control and demand response empowers customers to actively participate in and make informed choices about energy consumption while enhancing system reliability and limiting the high costs and environmental concerns associated with building new power plants and transmission capacity to meet increasing energy demand.

TBW provides business process and technology integration consulting services to our customers to help them build the case for the AMR and AMI deployments and ultimately the Smart Grid of the future. Our consulting services include business case development, enterprise process improvement, program and project management, Return on Investment Analysis, GIS integration, technology selection, PLC and wireless infrastructure analysis and design, and systems integration.
