G. Hosting <br />H. Staffing Considerations for Smart Metering Technologies <br />I. Schedule <br />J. Preparation of Solicitation Documents <br />K. Installation/Implementation Period Project Management <br />Each of the above items will be thoroughly addressed (and always are addressed) during the <br />tasks in our proven 'UtiliWorks Advantage' approach detailed in Section 3 of this proposal. <br />Prior to solicitation for an AMI solution, UtiliWorks will memorialize all recommendations and <br />decisions in a formal implementation plan. This plan will serve as the driving reference <br />document throughout AMI procurement and implementation. <br />UtiliWorks can help the City navigate the procurement process, allowing the City's AMI <br />Committee to design and optimize a solution that fulfills the City's unique needs. UtiliWorks <br />has a wide range of subject matter experts (SMEs) who have helped define the technical <br />requirements and specifications of clients' systems and have created "Capabilities Workbooks" <br />for vendors to fill out alongside their proposal submittal. These workbooks allow clients to <br />itemize and prioritize specific functional criteria and evaluate vendor proposals on a granular <br />Level. A sample workbook excerpt is shown below. <br />City of Wwrence <br />Requiremenu and G abilities• AMI System <br />detailed <br />Red.10 <br />ta'i ill nd Ira • e : <br />Pdanl `: <br />N tl A 'an <br />dog ram!
