Utility Network Project

The Lansing Board of Water & Light (BWL) is seeking a qualified vendor to design, configure, and implement Esri’s Utility Network across its electric, water, steam, chilled‑water, and fiber assets. The scope includes migration of existing GIS data, integration with BWL’s enterprise systems (OMS, AMI, CIS, etc.), configuration of ArcGIS Enterprise components, development of custom workflows, extensive testing, documentation, and comprehensive training for BWL staff. The project also covers indoor mapping (ArcGIS Indoors), CAD/BIM conversion, LiDAR integration, and data governance procedures, with a target implementation timeline of 24 months. BWL expects a high‑availability, disaster‑recovery‑ready architecture and ongoing support for the new Utility Network model. • Develop and configure a full Esri Utility Network model for electric, water, and ancillary utilities. • Migrate and validate existing GIS data into the new model. • Integrate the Utility Network with BWL’s existing enterprise applications (OMS, AMI, CIS, etc.). • Provide architecture assessment, sizing, and HA/DR design. • Configure ArcGIS Indoors, CAD/BIM conversion, and LiDAR data integration. • Deliver testing, documentation, and staff training. • Establish data governance and maintenance procedures.
