It is a publicly owned water agency governed by an elected Board of <br />Directors. <br />► Key Technologies <br />PROJECT DESCRIPTION <br />-AVEVA Plant SCADA <br />In 2005 SWA executed an integrator interview process to select an integrator <br />-AVEVA Historian <br />-AVEVA Ampla <br />partner. EA was selected as their sole integrator due to demonstrated SCADA <br />-Modicon PLCs <br />and water industry competence. EA's scope covers all SWA water production <br />-Magelis OITs <br />plants, ground water wells, and distribution controls. EA was engaged early as <br />-MDS Radios <br />a core team member of SWA's SCADA master planning committee, which <br />-Cisco Networking Equipment <br />continuously provides strategic direction and planning for SWA's SCADA <br />-MOXA firewalls <br />systems. <br />Project Metrics <br />Through consecutive professional service agreements beginning in 2005, this <br />-EA Services Value: $11 M <br />partnership has created one of the most standardized and robust automation <br />-Contract Period: 2005- Present <br />platforms in the industry. Sweetwater Authority is setting the standard for <br />water control system design and management. EA was initially tasked with <br />addressing several specific needs like SCADA alarming and data validation, <br />but quickly progressed to comprehensive controls system design, long-term <br />automation consulting, and development of a standards portfolio for the <br />Authority. <br />The current standards portfolio includes capital project system I&C design <br />standards and review, control panel design, SCADA equipment and <br />components, networking, IT policy, virtualization, PLC code, HMI graphics, <br />process control methodology, data storage, MES, water quality reporting, and <br />operator training standards. EA maintains all of these resources in the <br />Authority's source control system and supports the Authority in enforcing their <br />standards in new capital improvement projects and interim system changes. <br />EA currently supports SWA as a sole sourced systems integrator to design <br />and implement various improvement projects and an automation consultant <br />to assist with annual planning, master plan budgeting, and working as an <br />extension of staff and as a primary SCADA resource. <br />
