Expertpower is a configurable MDM platform for utilities of any size, with a high-capacity, decentralised architecture that enables tailored optimisation of cost, reliability and performance while delivering high availability.
Expertpower standardises interfaces and vendor handoffs with a purpose-built integration layer, removing guesswork and delivering frictionless connectivity to any system.
Expertpower adopts global, non-proprietary standards and protocols, enabling flexible, bi-directional integration with third-party hardware and software and delivering robust interoperability across multi-utility environments.
Native CSV/Excel imports and a robust API let you pull in manual reads and share data with other systems, accelerating third-party integrations and strengthening interoperability
Expertpower is an ideal Meter Data Management system since it is configurable for both small and large utilities. The system’s substantial data delivery capacity with a decentralised architecture allows optimization for diverse needs.
As a result, various strategies to optimize the system cost, reliability and performance are available. Expertpower’s architecture is not only reliable and cost-efficient but also ensures high system uptime.
Integration processes are achieved by customising the integration layers in each involved system. The complexity of this approach arises from the need to precisely define interfaces and assign the responsibilities of each vendor and potential third-party integrators.
Often, not all relevant details are addressed during the specification phase, and when issues arise, it can be challenging to identify the responsible party to complete the integration. This is where Expertpower excels. Our carefully designed architecture significantly mitigates these challenges, ensuring seamless integration with any platform.
Interoperability is crucial for Meter Data Management (MDM) systems, enabling system flexibility and efficiency. At Expertpower, we actively engage in standardisation activities leveraging global, non-proprietary standards and protocols in our research and development.
This approach fosters openness and ensures seamless bi-directional communication with hardware and software platforms from other manufacturers, facilitating robust interoperability across multi-utility infrastructures.
Ensuring the accuracy of collected data is crucial for an MDM system. Expertpower’s VEE process is instrumental in validating the data, estimating missing values, and editing any discrepancies to maintain data integrity.
This primary method not only flags inconsistencies for user review but also facilitates necessary corrections, ensuring that only clean and validated data is entered into the database. If data is found to be missing or invalid, the VEE process estimates and allows for editing to rectify these issues.
Any modifications made through this process generate an “exception,” which is then reported. This reporting mechanism ensures transparency and allows for manual intervention when further investigation into anomalies or missing data is required.
Expertpower MDM supports comprehensive data integration capabilities, enabling the import of data from manually read meters through various formats such as CSV, Excel and other similar file types.
Additionally, Expertpower MDM features a robust API that facilitates data retrieval by other systems. This integration ensures seamless data flow and enhances compatibility across different data management platforms.
Expertpower features advanced web service interfaces and offers customizable solutions to integrate seamlessly with third-party
data collection services. It supports the polling of interval data at configurable regular intervals, multiple times daily.
This includes capturing detailed interval consumption data (e.g., every 5, 15, or 30 minutes) and self-read data. Expertpower efficiently manages contingencies and addresses missed reads, ensuring data integrity.
Additionally, it generates automated billing export files tailored to meet the specific requirements of third-party billing systems, facilitating a smooth billing process.
Expertpower provides secure and convenient access from any web browser, enabling users to log in and engage with the system seamlessly. Through the Expertpower website, users can view historical consumption data, generate reports, perform data analysis and manage administrative tasks.
Our secure portal features configurable permissions for each user account, ensuring tailored access and enhanced security. With 24/7 availability from any device including PCs, laptops, tablets, and smartphones
Expertpower ensures that you have the flexibility to manage your data from anywhere, at any time.
Expertpower enhances your data engagement with its intuitive and powerful visualisation tools. Users can easily access and interpret commodity data through user-friendly graphics that display intervals ranging from hourly to annual consumption.
The system integrates advanced graphing capabilities, which include interactive mouseover features and effortless adjustments to time-range and data resolution, powered by Microsoft Power BI. For comprehensive data management, Expertpower allows users to combine dashboard views with summary data, aggregate information from multiple devices quickly and export data directly from analysis dashboards.
Additionally, the platform includes advanced reporting wizards, enabling users to create configurable, on-demand data reports that cater to specific analytical needs.
Expertpower provides robust event monitoring by flagging and generating alerts for built-in standard events. These events can
trigger alarms and notifications via SMS or email, ensuring efficient communication to multiple users.
Notifications are customisable and can be sent according to predefined user roles within the platform, enhancing security and response efficiency.
Expertpower is designed to accommodate projects of any size, from small setups to extensive enterprise deployments.
Leveraging advanced data management tools and expandable cloud database resources, the system can efficiently manage and process vast quantities of interval data.
This scalability ensures that as your data demands grow, Expertpower can seamlessly adapt, providing consistent performance and reliability.
Expertpower equips utility service and assistance teams with advanced tools to provide swift and effective responses to customer inquiries.
The system features a user-friendly customer interface that facilitates easy access to detailed analyses of client profiles, consumption patterns, events, and usage history. This capability ensures that service teams can efficiently
