AMI & Utility Integration
Connecting metering to the business of electricity.
An Advanced Metering Infrastructure and Electronic Billing System program connecting meter usage, monthly billing, online payments, and financial reporting.
The context
A utility modernization initiative required more than smart meter deployment. Meter usage needed to move through billing, collection, accounting, and reporting processes, with technical and business teams aligned throughout delivery.

Sanitized conceptual business flow, based on the project description. It is not a production architecture or system screenshot.
My contribution
- Translated business and operational requirements into technical specifications, workflows, and integration requirements.
- Coordinated automated data exchange between metering infrastructure and downstream billing and financial systems.
- Served as a liaison between government stakeholders, business users, and technical teams.
- Managed testing, validation, deployment, and production readiness across technical and operational teams.
What it supported
The program connected smart meter usage acquisition with billing and local-bank payment processes, township financial accounting, and central reporting. Network monitoring supported the observation of meter tampering, unauthorized usage, and operational anomalies.
What I carry forward
Reliable integration is as much about shared business rules, data consistency, and operational ownership as it is about moving data.
