Distribution utility businesses are confronting a perfect storm of rising customer expectations, aging infrastructure, and opportunistic market, regulatory, and technological developments. Rapid change is causing distribution business executives, and the regulators and governing boards that hold them accountable, to ask fundamental and challenging questions: * What performance measures and services matter most to my customers and my business? * What factors are most critical to performance and service improvement? * What do the answers imply for optimized investment in assets and capabilities? * What opportunities and challenges will my business face in 5 to 10 years, and what should I do today to prepare? * How can we demonstrate, quantify, and communicate distribution business performance and value creation to reduce cost recovery risk and get our customers to love us? Many distribution utilities have implemented or are considering significant modernization efforts that will shape operations, services, and opportunities for decades. This makes informed and insightful choices during modernization design, implementation, and optimization more important than ever. The Wired Group's mission is to help distribution utility businesses maximize the value of their physical, logical, human, informational, and market assets. Wired Group services support distribution utility businesses in all aspects of the performance improvement lifecycle, including visioning, planning, execution, optimization, and evaluation. The Wired Group stands ready to help distribution utilities -- electric or gas, smart grid or legacy grid, investor-owned or community owned -- take their business performance and value creation to the next level.
