CEM Rolls Out Intergraph's Geospatial Information and Outage Management Solution.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers HUNTSVILLE, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 11, 2003 Intergraph completes rapid implementation of next-generation GIS to streamline work processes and integrate with key corporate systems Intergraph Hong Kong Hong Kong (hŏng kŏng), Mandarin Xianggang, special administrative region of China, formerly a British crown colony (2005 est. pop. 6,899,000), land area 422 sq mi (1,092 sq km), adjacent to Guangdong prov. Limited, a subsidiary of U.S.-based Intergraph Corporation (Nasdaq:INGR), today announced the successful rollout of its Geospatial Information and Outage Management System An Outage Management System (OMS) is a computer system used by operators of electric distribution systems to assist in restoration of power. Major Functions of an OMS Major functions usually found in an OMS include: contagious equine metritis. CEM selective medium chocolate agar made with Eugon agar and 5% horse blood; used to cultivate Taylorella equigenitalis. , S. A. (CEM). Companhia de Electricidade de Macau is the sole electricity provider in Macau, serving more than 187,000 customers across 22 square kilometers. The GIS-OMS was deployed in approximately thirteen months, meeting company expectations for rapid implementation. The solution replaces CEM's existing mapping system and provides an outage management capability for its electric distribution network. The overall goal of CEM was to achieve an integrated Geospatial Resource Management (GRM GRM Gross Rent Multiplier GRM Geospatial Resource Management (GIS, mapping) GRM General Routing Matrix GRM General Relationship Model GRM Gregg Reference Manual GRM Gross Refining Margin GRM Global Request Manager ) environment, in which pre-integrated solutions allow a seamless workflow among applications that provide and maintain its service-delivery network. The GIS-OMS integrates with an existing SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) A process control application that collects data from sensors and machines on the shop floor or in remote locations and sends them to a central computer for management and control. system to provide near real-time tracking of any circuit failure on the high and medium voltage electrical networks - a capability that also results in the generation of trouble tickets for CEM Call Center. At the foundation of the GIS-OMS is Intergraph's G/Electric family of applications, which provides facilities design and maintenance for the mapping department, trouble call management for the call center, and ad hoc For this purpose. Meaning "to this" in Latin, it refers to dealing with special situations as they occur rather than functions that are repeated on a regular basis. See ad hoc query and ad hoc mode. Web query for several hundred corporate users. The system runs in an Oracle cluster environment and meets the high reliability requirements of CEM. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. the project manager of GIS-OMS, Jean-Pierre Quentin, "Although we used commercial, off-the-shelf software, Intergraph Hong Kong Limited configured and lightly customized the solution to meet our end-user's specific needs and expectations. Intergraph's receptiveness and professionalism resulted in a smooth and rapid project implementation." "Following the initial significant win of Companhia de Electricidade de Macau in the growing North Asia region, this project's successful Geospatial Information and Outage Management System rollout represents a milestone and sets an example for other customers who are currently implementing G/Technology," said Benson Law, regional director, Utilities & Communications Division, Intergraph Mapping and Geospatial Solutions North Asia. Intergraph Hong Kong Limited provided hardware, software, consulting, implementation, and data migration services for the project. This deployment follows full system acceptance last December.
