in current state, and utilizing the new business applications (MDMS system, AMI headend, AMI Infrastructure and AMI Meters as applicable) and the interfaces that will be deployed (AMI/MDMS, MDMS/CIS, etc.). This workshop is typically held during Alpha phase, prior to vendor training and systems configuration in order to help prepare the City to address open items with the vendors. This workshop should coincide with the Reporting Ft Business Intelligence Strategy if that work is also in scope. The Future State #1 processes include: • Meter Change-Out/Retrofit • Billing l} Interval Read Validation (includes VEE) • Customer Inquiry and Response • Non -Pay Disconnect/ Reconnect • Moveln/Out • Events ft Reports (Data QA Matrix) • Mass Meter Changeout (Deployment) The new process area, Events Et Reports, will address the advanced (non -billing related) functions enabled by the AMI/MDMS systems. This additional business process area will help the City define the operational impacts that result from AMI/MDMS implementation. UtiliWorks covers this area through creation of a Data QA Matrix during this task. The matrix identifies process owners, priorities, and the schedule for reviewing various system reports, alarms and events. The new process area, Mass Meter Changeout, will address the process for mass meter exchange during Full Deployment, with a focus on the Santa Ana's roles and responsibilities rather than the installation team's procedures. This process will include how to handle any utility - installations, return -to -utility situations, and data exchanges with a work order management system. It is imperative this process be included in the future state design in order to get the City ready to transition to Full Deployment from POC. The discussion for the Mass Meter Changeout session will revolve around data and information flows, inventory control, route sequencing and deployment preparations. Deliverables: Narrative of each process (*.ppt), Decisions and open items from workshop, First pass future state process diagrams (*.vsd), Draft Events & Reports Data QA Matrix. Task 2.3 - As -Built Future State (#2) The Future State #2 workshop is the third of three onsite business process workshops that are planned for the finalization of the business process flow diagrams and training materials. This final workshop will focus on addressing open items from earlier workshops, refining City staff decisions regarding, and incorporating any new information following vendor training and configuration of systems. This iteration serves to bring the process diagrams and supporting materials to a final state that can be utilized for future internal training activity. This workshop will include time for demonstration of active (test or production) systems related to core business processes. The City of Santa Ana 2W=,�93 Page 19
