NetPM™ - Network Project Management

Network Project Modeling & Management

概要

ETAP Network Project Management (NetPM™) provides a platform for collaborative engineering using smart management tools to shorten the time for power system modeling and studies from months to weeks.

Change Management
Review and Approval Process
Simultaneous Modeling and Analysis
Joint Operation and Control
Collaborate in Parallel from Anywhere

ETAP NetPM™ offers a powerful time-saving solution for topology synchronization, data integration, model coordination & validation, and information transfer across the entire life cycle of the electrical network from modeling to operation and from engineering-consultants to owner-operators.

NetPM Key Features

Collaborative multi-user model creation, data collection and validation
Concurrent system studies, analyses, and reports
Topology synchronization and data validation between ETAP Desktops and etapAPP™
Single source repository for all data changes
Seamless synchronization of annotations & graphics
Manage one model between consultants and owner-operators
User Access Management with role-based and password authentication manager
Revert data using local change queue

Key Benefits

Cut disparate, uncoordinated work on a project from contributing members and save not only time but also resources and effort
Remove sequential, re-circulation, and repetition of studies due to conflicting project solutions
Allow engineers to model and analyze projects simultaneously from anywhere
Track project changes, progress and share study results with team members
Automatic cloud-based project synchronization and distribution to authorized team members
Manage projects between consultants and owner-operators
Supports real-time and asynchronous operation

Increase Engineering Design Quality

Quickly identify changes from multiple engineers made to a project and synchronize the changes. NetPM provides a platform for improved design validation through collaboration.

Improve Productivity

Increase productivity by having multiple engineers working in parallel on the same project. NetPM removes the time delay associated with the traditional sequential process of single engineer project access by allowing multiple engineers to simultaneously work on the same model and run various studies.

Accelerate Project Schedules

With tools for a complete multi-user management system, efficiency of project completion will drastically increase. Whether data collection and project updates are done from etapAPP™ or from an engineering workstation, all changes are simultaneously reflected on the master model and approved updates are broadcasted to selected users.

How Kuwait Oil Company optimizes electrical systems and improves asset management with ETAP

This presentation discusses the Electrical Information Management System (EIMS) in use at Kuwait Oil Company, a power reservation model-based integration solution designed for oil and gas production. The aim was to achieve flexible and configurable approval workflows, integrated with user access management and various notification methods, to optimize operation, enhance visualization, and improve asset management within their complex electrical networks. Their EIMS integrates smart meters with ETAP and GIS, enabling efficient communication, real-time updates, and enhanced reliability of the electrical system. The pilot project includes real-time power monitoring, reduced site visits, expedited workflow, and centralized management of work order processes. The presentation also covers the challenges faced in power reservation planning and the specific ETAP solutions implemented, including NetPM and ETAP eWeb.

How Schneider Electric implemented a collaborative power system model and workflow with ETAP NetPM

This presentation explores the critical role of ETAP's Network Project Manager (NETPM) in creating collaborative models for power systems. It addresses the industry-wide challenge of maintaining accurate, up-to-date electrical system data, highlighting the risks associated with outdated or inaccessible information. Carter Sanders introduces NETPM as a solution, demonstrating how it facilitates the creation of "living models" that evolve with the system. Key topics include the implementation of NETPM, focusing on user roles, permissions, and effective workflows. A customer success story illustrates the tangible benefits of NETPM, including reduced man-hours, faster information transfer, and improved risk mitigation. The presentation also covers important considerations for model management, data access, and adapting service models to incorporate NETPM effectively. By emphasizing the shift from static diagrams to dynamic, collaborative models, this talk aims to showcase how NETPM can enhance safety, reliability, and efficiency in power system management. It concludes by encouraging audiences to explore NETPM's potential in their operations, positioning it as a crucial tool for navigating the complexities of modern electrical systems.
