Summary

As electric utilities modernize and expand their transmission and distribution networks, managing the flood of engineering content has become a critical challenge. From undergrounding initiatives to aging substations, today’s utilities must securely connect drawings, work orders, GIS data, and asset information to keep the grid running safely and efficiently.

In this session co-hosted by T&D World and Accruent, industry experts will discuss how leading utilities are transforming their document management practices to enhance reliability, enable mobility, and strengthen cybersecurity.

You’ll learn:

  • Why traditional file shares and email attachments are putting your organization at risk.
  • How a connected Engineering Document Management System (EDMS) creates a single source of truth across your assets, project activities, and enterprise systems.  
  • The role of mobility and offline access in managing mixed above- and below-ground infrastructure.
  • How collaborative digital workflows allow multiple stakeholders - utilities, contractors, and regulators - to safely share and update engineering data across both linear and vertical assets.
  • Real-world examples of utilities investing in future-ready systems that reduce downtime and empower teams.

This webinar will appeal to executives, engineering leaders, and IT decision-makers seeking practical steps to unify their utility data and build a resilient digital foundation for the next generation of T&D operations.
