SUS Reveals SmartLabs™ at Utility Analytics Week 2013


LOS ANGELES --(Business Wire)--

Smart Utility Systems (SUS) announced the reveal of SUS SmartLabs™ at the second annual Utility Analytics Week, taking place September 23 - 25th, 2013, at the Georgia International Convention Center in Atlanta, GA. SUS will be exhibiting at Booth 128.

SUS SmartLabs™ is an innovative "Data & Analytics Lab" that allows utilities to test and prototype technology fit to their data and analytics requirements. Utilities can use pre-built SUS use cases or create new ones with their own data and identify the technology and solutions most suited to their needs. The SmartLabs™ infrastructure comprises industry-strength data warehouse and BI / Visualization tools which have been configured and optimized to meet typical utility industry requirements.

"Utilities grapple with several data related issues and questions which broadly fall into two categories - Data Management and Analytics… SmartLabs™ helps utilities address key questions in both these areas ranging from data strategy and governance to developing use cases and deploying scenarios using the utility's own test data."
- G. Satish, Senior Vice President, SUS.



SUS SmartLabs™ reviews the utility's specific data and / or analytics requirements and works with the utility to prototype scenarios that validate the requirements as well as tools and solutions. Utilities typically gain a set of end-result scenarios which they can use to drive their data / analytics strategy further. These scenarios usually address specific business user needs and provide a relatable platform from which business and IT can build a cost-effective data and analytics strategy.

SmartLabs™ complements the SUS Pilot Delivery Package (PDP), a standardized package of services that helps utilities evaluate data and analytics technology fit to their specific requirements. PDP deliverables, which include a set of visualizations using test data from customers and a road-map to accomplish desired business objectives, can now be tested in SmartLabs™.
