2001年，EPCOR选择了一个工作管理系统，其愿景是一个应用程序服务 配电和输电、变电站、水处理的需求 植物和水的分配。所选产品以工厂工作管理为重点，但 基于新技术，允许未来的增强。2002年，申请被批准 推出前三个领域的功能。现在是2003年的浪潮（Water IVARA） 增强）项目正在通过以下方式增强公用事业其他领域使用的现有系统: 定制产品以满足配水业务需求。 EPCOR Water Services Incorporated（EWSI）意识到改善水质的潜在好处 工作管理功能，并实现其地理位置的重要作用 信息系统（GIS）和水网信息系统（WNIS）。他们投资了 在考虑 升级其GIS和WNIS应用程序。最终的决定是从 使用将WNIS应用程序整合到单个工作管理系统（WMS）中 支持GIS集成的方法。 在埃德蒙顿市，EWSI的配水系统由3100公里长的管道组成， 14570个消防栓和44700个阀门。预防性和纠正性维护的工作指令， 基本工程和紧急维修维护了城市的基础设施。 工作管理 系统将捕获并组织所有适用的数据。为方便配水人员使用 该系统的强大功能，WaVE包括了提高效率的定制工具。简单的 然而，一个有效的例子是分配检查器和检查日期的多重更新工具 适用于指定工单中列出的所有设施。 WaVE提供了一个极好的机会来建立纸质文件 工作管理系统中的维护（PM）程序。非电子PM程序 包括: 腔室维护（厘米）； 舱室检查（CC）； 消防栓吹扫（高压）； 冬季消防栓检查（WC）； 泄漏调查（LS）；和 阴极保护（CP）。 WaVE引入了区域运行设施概念，以迁移所有PM项目，包括 单向冲洗（UDF），进入单一应用程序。结果是极端的 整体数据处理的改进，就像一架架接一架的纸质文档可以 以及搜索和分析能力的增强。 包括数字。

In 2001 EPCOR selected a work management system with visions of one application serving the needs of Power Distribution and Transmission, Power Substations, Water Treatment Plants, and Water Distribution. The product chosen had a plant work management focus but was based on new technology, allowing for future enhancements. In 2002 the application was rolled out for functionality in the first three areas. Now in 2003 the WaVE (Water IVARA Enhancements) Project is enhancing the existing system used by other areas of the utility by tailoring and customizing the product to meet business needs of water distribution. EPCOR Water Services Incorporated (EWSI) is aware of the potential benefits of improving work management functionality and realizes the significant roles of their Geographic Information System (GIS) and Water Network Information System (WNIS). They invested an abundant amount of initial research and business process modeling when considering the upgrades of their GIS and WNIS applications. The resulting decision was to start by consolidating the WNIS applications into a single Work Management System (WMS) using methods able to support GIS integration. In the City of Edmonton, EWSI's water distribution system consists of 3,100 km of pipeline, 14,570 hydrants, and 44,700 valves. Work orders for preventative and corrective maintenance, capital work, and emergency repairs maintain the city's infrastructure. The Work Management System will capture and organize all applicable data. To ease Water Distribution staff with the system's overwhelming functionality, WaVE included custom tools for efficiency. A simple yet effective example is the Multiple Update Tool that assigns the inspector and date checked to all facilities listed in a specified work order. WaVE provided an excellent opportunity to establish paper maintained preventative maintenance (PM) programs in the Work Management System. Non-electronic PM programs included: chamber maintenance (CM); chamber checking (CC); hydrant purging (HP); winter hydrant checking (WC); leak survey (LS); and, cathodic protection (CP). WaVE introduced the Area-Run-Facility concept to migrate all the PM programs, including Unidirectional Flushing (UDF), into the single application. The result was drastic improvement for the overall data handling, as shelves upon shelves of paper documents can be eliminated, as well as the enhancement of search and analysis capabilities.
