Software integration, the process of combining individual computing systems into a unified whole is important to electric and utility companies because it provides the full picture into all fleet activity. Integrating global positioning system (GPS) fleet tracking software with a geographic information system (GIS), mapping overlays, an outage management system and other software features, can provide the most information for day-to-day operations and improve the overall efficiency of a utility's fleet. Information can be accessed from one location-without logging into multiple portals. Utilities with access to all available data from one interface provide the necessary tools to make improved business decisions.
