Who it's for

Municipal and cooperative utilities

Municipal utilities and cooperatives respond to outages with small teams, sometimes the same people on every shift. Members and councils want to know what happened and how fast, and the team needs a simple record that holds up.

How Utility Outage Management is set up for you

Simple intake

Cases recorded with service area and affected units.

Separation of duties

Supervisors review what crews submit.

Explainable figures

Restoration times and affected customers come from approved records.

Municipal utilities and cooperatives respond to outages with small teams, sometimes the same people on every shift. Members and councils want to know what happened and how fast, and the team needs a simple record that holds up.

Start with all service areas and the next month's outages. Keep the process light: triage, evidence, restoration and approval.
