Subject: Upcoming January 20th Grid Analytics Community Conversation

Hello UAI Grid Analytics Community Members,

Happy New Year and I hope you all had amazing holidays! It’s been a little while since we last connected and I’m very excited to announce our FIRST community conversation/exercise of the year, “Solve my Problem,” taking place Wednesday, January 20th at 1:00 PM CT. This interactive exercise will examine two “problems” and explore solutions or action plans to solve in real time. Learn more below!

Session Description:

The “Solve My Problem” session will be delivered in a way that will encourage partnered collaboration between members to come up with answers, solutions, and/or action plans to help members solve these real-time “problems”. During conversations about the “problems”, we encourage attendees to showcase your successes, share experiences and lessons learned, share your failures (sometimes we learn just as much from “what not to do”). We want everyone to gain valuable insights from the supportive and knowledgeable group of peers meeting during today’s Community Conversation. We encourage open, interactive dialogue throughout the exercise to create a vibrant and collaborative environment, and we want to ensure everyone in attendance receives an opportunity to voice their opinions and ideas.

We will spend about 25 minutes discussing each “problem”, so come prepared to discuss the following during the Grid Analytics Community “Solve My Problem” exercise!

“Problems” for the “Solve My Problem” Exercise:

• How are you navigating innovation change management across your business partners in Operations, Engineering & Customer to optimize your products & solutions like ADMS, GRID Modernization, Advanced Analytics?

• Scenario: We are migrating off of our current enterprise asset management platform and changing to another one. We are implementing new processes and going through digital transformation. Problem: What are your learnings & best practices to embrace process and digital transformation, when migrating your enterprise asset management platform?

We will be providing a Microsoft Teams link prior to our meeting. If you have any questions prior, please reach out to me at kpraet@utilityanalytics.com and I’ll be happy to help.

Thanks!

Good Afternoon Grid Analytics Community Members,

Please remember to take 5 minutes to complete this easy survey! We have received four (4) new responses to the survey since I posted it last week. I would love to see at least 20 to 30 of our 85 Grid Analytics Community members take the survey to get a 23-35% response rate. This will give us more than enough input to properly build out content for your 2021 Grid Analytics Community Conversations. Without your input, we are driving blind. With your input, we can deliver content on a monthly basis that is timely, relevant, and valuable to your current needs!  

You can see the original request to take the survey, here. 

Take the Survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Grid2021!

Thanks so much!
     
      Leslie Cook, Kevin Praet, and your friendly Grid Analytics Community Leadership Team

Subject: We Need Your Input – Please Take This 5-Minute Survey!

Hello UAI Grid Analytics Community Members,

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday.

Since we launched the Grid Analytics Community back in September 2020, we have doubled our member size. We are now 82 members strong! WOW! Thanks so much to everyone that has joined this Community over the last few months!

When we first launched this community, we did a “getting to know you” session and survey, so we could get to know each other and better understand where you are within your grid analytics journey, your successes and challenges, and your needs and wants in regards to topics of discussion. We collected this information so that we could better plan content for our monthly Community Conversations. Since we started this group with fewer members, we now want to take an opportunity at the beginning of 2021 to re-circulate our “getting to know you” survey.

There are A LOT more members now that will have input. Plus, we need more input to help us build out our monthly content… We’ve almost used all the content from the first round of results to pull together programs in 2020 through February 2021. Please take 5 minutes to complete this easy survey! We will keep it open until Friday, January 29, so don’t delay and take it today! 

Thank you all so much!

Take the Survey by January 29 at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Grid2021!

Cheers,
Leslie Cook, Kevin Praet, and your friendly Grid Analytics Community Leadership Team
