Product
MDM, built from the ground up for the cloud and the age of AI
DPU replaces legacy MDM infrastructure with a cloud-native platform that runs on your data warehouse — or is fully managed by us. Real-time processing, AI-ready data, and deep utility domain expertise from the team behind Util-Assist.
Core Capabilities
The foundational features that make DPU a modern MDM.
Real-Time Ingestion
Stream meter events directly into your warehouse as they arrive. Full support for IEEE 2030.5, DLMS/COSEM, and all major AMI head-end systems.
Continuous VEE
Validation, Estimation, and Editing runs on millions of intervals per second. Business users configure rules without code and see results immediately.
Cloud-Native, Zero Data Movement
Data stays in your cloud warehouse. No ETL pipelines to build, no copies to reconcile, no governance gaps between systems.
Event Correlation
Correlate outage events, tamper alerts, and voltage excursions across meters, transformers, and feeders in real time.
Pre-Built Integrations
Connectors for major CIS, OMS, GIS, and work management systems. REST APIs, webhooks, and native warehouse sharing for custom workflows.
Full Data Lineage
Track every meter read from head-end to downstream system. Immutable audit trail with complete lineage for regulatory compliance.
Built for the use cases utilities care about
DPU is purpose-built for the operational, financial, and grid planning challenges that utilities face every day.
Billing Accuracy
Continuous validation and deterministic billing calculations eliminate estimation errors and revenue leakage.
- TOU, demand, and custom rate calculations
- Automated exception handling
- Full audit trail from read to bill
Outage Validation
Correlate last-gasp and restoration events across your network to confirm outage boundaries before crews roll.
- Validate outage scope in seconds
- Reduce unnecessary truck rolls
- OMS integration for incident enrichment
Revenue Protection
Real-time pattern analysis flags theft, bypass, and meter anomalies as they occur.
- Automated anomaly detection
- Correlated evidence packages
- Loss quantification for prioritization
Asset Health Monitoring
Monitor transformer loading, voltage quality, and phase imbalance continuously using data already in your warehouse.
- Identify overloaded assets early
- Feed data into predictive maintenance
- Track voltage quality trends
DER & EV Readiness
Native support for bidirectional metering, net energy calculations, and EV charging profiles.
- IEEE 2030.5 and bidirectional flows
- Net metering and feed-in tariffs
- EV load profiling for capacity planning
AI & Grid Analytics
Because meter data is AI-ready from day one, data science and planning teams can query or model it directly in your warehouse.
- No exports or data requests needed
- Direct access for BI, ML, and AI models
- Support dynamic rate design and load forecasting
How it works
DPU sits between your AMI infrastructure and the cloud, processing everything in place and keeping data AI-ready.

Security
Your data never leaves your perimeter
Because DPU runs inside your warehouse, meter data stays within your existing security boundary. Combined with enterprise-grade platform controls, you get defense in depth without added complexity.
SOC 2 Type II
Independently audited security controls
Encryption
AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit
Data Residency
Data stays in your cloud, your region
RBAC
Fine-grained role-based access control
