Utilities face pressure to do more with less and maintain high quality service, all the while coping with aging assets, capital constraints, and a changing workforce. Additionally, consumers are increasingly participating in energy efficiency measures and using distributed energy resources. This trend adds to the complexity of grid design and optimization. More and more, utilities are interested in managing asset, design, and geospatial information using standard IT tools and processes. This comprehensive approach enables easy integration with GIS, asset management, customer information, and other enterprise systems.

Autodesk design software is a utility industry standard, which means that Autodesk products built on AutoCAD can create infrastructure models that leverage design information across the utility asset lifecycle without data conversion in order to:

  • Improve design productivity
  • Speed up the on-boarding process for new employees
  • Improve processes for maintaining CAD and GIS data
  • Enhance data quality
  • Share up-to-date and accurate design, spatial, and asset information securely on the web
  • Provide comprehensive reports of infrastructure assets to support compliance reporting and rate cases
