SCADA

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems provide utilities with valuable knowledge and capabilities that are key to a primary business function - delivering power in a reliable and safe manner. A quality SCADA solution is central to effective operation of a utility's most critical and costly distribution, transmission, and generation assets.

The challenging issues for SCADA systems and projects today are not the same as they were a few years ago. Today, there is much more importance placed on integration, use of new communication and network technologies, access to information by more users, and for more purposes.

PSE provides SCADA consulting services nationwide. We are recognized as a leader in this area. Our team of professionals has many years of experience successfully designing, specifying, and implementing SCADA systems.

We have team members who have worked in utility operation centers, in the vendor arena, and as consultants. We specialize in SCADA systems for mid-size and small utilities. We know the applications, resources, and constraints common to these organizations.

We provide services on all aspects of SCADA projects. Whether you are in the planning stage, implementation stage, or if you need to add a single application, replace an entire system, migrate a system, or put in your first SCADA system. PSE has the experience and is ready to help.

Services PSE can provide include:
  • Evaluate existing systems and develop strategies to make improvements, replace aged or problematic systems, or meet new business objectives.
  • Pre-screen possible bidders and prepare Requests for Information (RFI).
  • Develop procurement specifications and a complete Request for Proposal (RFP) including terms and conditions.
  • Participate in vendor evaluations and scoring.
  • Seek technical and business clarifications with vendors and contribute to or lead contract negotiations.
  • Provide hands-on system configuration and integration services (e.g., databases, displays, application integration, IED integration).
  • Support system functional and performance testing, and point-to-point checkout.
  • Assist with Substation Automation applications.
  • Assist with Energy Management System (EMS) applications.
  • Assist with Distribution Management System (DMS) applications.
  • Assist with Communications technologies. PSE provides a full range of services to utilities on all aspects and phases of communication projects and initiatives.
  • Present and lead a Workshop to educate your team on a technology or address a more strategic objective.
The most important aspect about the PSE approach is that we are flexible and cost competitive. We provide our clients with high-value contributions that save them money, time, and problems. With an opportunity to speak with your team, we are confident we can arrive at a working arrangement that meets your objectives and constraints.
