Mapping the data landscape

Utility players will need to map their data landscape—that is, understand data quality and relationships between data sets—to identify resolutions to any potential data issues. Potential data and operational issues — Changes to work orders are not tracked over time. — Schedules are not locked, making tracking adherence challenging.

— estimating travel time based on typical patterns — identifying unknown gaps in crew timesheets to improve quality of crew metrics

— Travel time may not be accurately coded. — Job duration estimates are inaccurate. — Too many data sources can be overwritten by human inputs. Potential resolutions — locking schedules to allow for better metric tracking — updating job duration estimates
