Measurement data management
AMS
AMS
AMS is an MDM system developed for acquisition, storage, processing and sharing measurement data, as well as their analytical reporting.
As a result of using modern technology and functional solutions, the systems is able to manage measurement data on a mass scale and effectively handle the growing number of remotely read metering systems. Moreover, it can ensure fast detection of irregularities (e.g. illegal electricity consumption) and facilitate the management and development of the power grid.
The solution supports the current business processes and it is also adjusted to planned changes in the Energy Market. The system is dedicated to the processes connected to Smart Metering, what provides easy extension to other tasks characterized by a high level of automation.
How does AMS work?
AMS is a central repository of measurement data (MDM) of various media, collected from acquisition systems according to existing standards. It consist of intuitive user interface including extensive filters, a convenient reporting and alarming system, and a tool for monitoring and scheduling business processes. Due to optimal and scalable architecture, the system can efficiently manage millions of measurement points.
AMS provides a wide range of configuration and integration options, so that it can be optimally included into efficient support of business processes in the organization.
Mentioned features are achieved by:
- Designing a product as a web application, in order that it could be run on client machines and in the cloud
- Efficient mechanisms of storing and processing big volumes of data
- Rich catalogue of integration services
- Wide possibilities of application configuration and personalization (sets of functions, user reports, cockpits etc)
Business benefits
Efficient fulfilling the responsibilities of Energy Market participant
Reliable and timely acquisition, processing and sharing metering data
Independence from suppliers of the acquisition systems due to convenient integration of measurement data from different reading modules
Efficient and quick detection of anomalies, e.g. illegal energy consumption or malfunction of measured devices or machines
Raising energy awareness among end-users
More efficient handling of complaint processes by reason of comparing source data with amounts accepted for accounting

Implementation model
order to meet the expectations of our clients, we offer several models of implementation:
- within client’s infrastructure (on-premise), which allows to have full control over the implemented solution,
- within Sygnity’s electronic service platform (on-cloud), which allows to reduce unit costs of the implementation and continue in service model (subscription)
Clients can manage the solution by themselves or – for the convenience and time saving – can commission it to our experts.
We offer short implementation time, a set of trainings for the end users and administrators, assistance after implementation and efficient service provided by a team of qualified consultants.
