GRIDlinks

The value proposition for GRIDmaster is in the hundreds of millions of dollars for a major utility but recouping your investment to achieve that value begins with the Integration component. GRIDmaster has to have the right data and lots of it to be successful. GRIDiant has designed a set of Application Programming Interfaces (API’s) that allow us to connect any and/or all of your data input systems. These might include (but are not limited to) an Outage Management System (OMS), a Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition system (SCADA), a Geographic Information System (GIS), an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI), a Meter Data Management System (MDMS), a Load Management System (LMS), a Demand Response Management System (DRM) and/or other data input systems. The more data we have the better GRIDmaster can perform. These links are not included in the the software costs as they change from one client to another and from one brand of input system to another. The cost for the GRIDlinks layer are provided on a project basis and can be provided by either GRIDiant, one of our partners (such as KEMA, IBM or TeraData) or by your preferred system integrator.
