The goal sounds simple—converging utility IT and OT operations without complexity or sacrificing performance. But is it that easy? In this session, attendees will review a case study featuring Central Lincoln PUD and how they approached the challenge of migrating their network infrastructure to a packet-switched core and addressed their goal of converging IT and OT onto a single network. The presentation describes the requirements-based approach Central Lincoln used to evaluate different solutions and ultimately how they decided to choose a carrier-Ethernet-based solution. Additionally, this session will also feature a discussion on utility a telecom-systems operations maturity models with four key focus areas: capability, competency, availability, and capacity. The areas of capability and competency provide a foundation in maturity, whereas availability and capacity are more often considered after significant progress is made in the other areas.
