Our outage analytics and reporting solution is a simple-to-use web tool that extends enterprise access to operational information (historical as well as near-real time), visualization, analysis, and reporting. We provide real-time situational awareness of unfolding incidents, operational deployments, and restoration progress during major events. Our software also provides insight into historical performance, trends, and possible root causes, helping companies proactively reduce the number of outage events.
We help monitor indicators of emerging issues before they become problems, such as outage duration, frequency of outages, system availability, and response times. The system is simple to set up andintegrate within existing information technology landscapes. It works with leading OMS and GIS systems from third-parties, as well as Hexagon’s, and provides richer insight by combining data from disparate systems in a unified view.

Our outage notification solution provides customers with more timely and relevant outage information. It enables operators to incorporate data from the OMS with their customer communications and preference management platforms to drive better communications.
Events in the OMS triggers Intergraph Outage Notifications to generate a customer list, which the utility’s customer communications system uses to automate delivery in accordance with the options the customers has specified. This enables customers to receive the outage information they want in via the channels they choose.
With our solutions, utility companies can provide customers with near-real-time information about outages affecting their home or business, as well as advance notification of planned outages.
