The AMI Project Planning Illusion – Treating Technology Like Concrete
Online
Most AMI projects don’t fail because of bad technology. They fail because utilities approach procurement and financing the wrong way—treating AMI like a one-time purchase instead of a living system. Bonds may work for bridges, but they’re mismatched for fast-moving technologies like metering and data platforms.
In this webinar, we’ll unpack the common financial and political traps utilities fall into during AMI planning, from hidden lifecycle costs to change order purgatory. More importantly, we’ll explore alternative procurement models—like metering-as-a-service—that align incentives, reduce risk, and help utilities finally achieve the outcomes AMI promises. Attendees will leave with a new lens for AMI planning: it’s not about the meters, it’s about the money.
