In the spring of 2008, two Duke Energy executives asked me to investigate the necessary requirements to deploy a distribution management system (DMS). At the time, my knowledge of DMS was limited, so I had to conduct a very thorough investigation. When I undertook this project, I did not realize how this project would turn into a rewarding, six-year journey that would have significant impacts on myself and my team both professionally and personally. In June 2014, the journey to deploy a DMS at Duke Energy officially ended as we closed the DMS deployment project. Over the course of the preceding six years, we successfully deployed a multifunction, model-based DMS across the legacy Duke Energy Carolinas (North and South Carolina) and Midwest (Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky) service areas.
