Keep Every Outage Decision Aligned

From planned maintenance to real‑time events, PCI keeps outage data, approvals, communications, and compliance artifacts in sync—so operators, schedulers, and compliance teams act on the same information, in the same moment. Reduce re‑entry and handoffs, tighten response times, and generate audit‑ready submissions without the late‑night scramble.

Generation Outage Management​

Streamline outage coordination with real-time alerts, long-term planning tools, and configurable workflows. Maintain compliance, ensure operational continuity, and reduce downtime with end-to-end visibility.

Transmission Outage Management

Effectively plan, schedule and manage all grid outages while meeting NERC requirements (including FERC Order 881) with our comprehensive transmission outage management toolkit.

transmission lines

Line Rating Management​ System

Automatically calculate, update, and report ambient‑adjusted line ratings to meet FERC Order 881 requirements. PCI centralizes weather‑driven rating updates, visualizes real‑time limits, and generates audit‑ready reports and submissions

Client Testimonial

"PCI’s Outage Management solution has dramatically improved our outage planning and communication process. Gone are the multitude of disconnected spreadsheets, forgotten emails, and last-minute group conference calls. Our team’s collaboration has never been better."

Director, Thermal Fleet Operations

Request Case Study

Client Testimonial

"By using PCI to optimize routing, minimize losses, and proactively manage outages, Pattern has reduced its overall transmission expense – the largest cost component for its wind project operations."

Matt Veghte

Senior Manager, Pattern Energy

Request Case Study

Client Testimonial

"PCI's Line Rating Management System integrated smoothly into our workflow, enabling an efficient, cost-effective process that helped us meet FERC 881 requirements on time and with confidence.”

Jason Smith

Manager of System Operations Planning, Santee Cooper

Outage Management Software

Improve reliability, reduce costs, in real-time

Reduce errors, shorten outage cycles, and prevent costly miscoordination by unifying every step of the outage workflow.

Reliability

  • Maintain system stability with validated outage entries, accurate ratings, and aligned operational workflows
  • Improve operational consistency by unifying outage planning, communications, and status tracking across teams
  • Reduce forced impacts by enforcing approval rules and fail‑safe checks before work begins

Efficiency

  • Prevent overruns with automated lockouts, escalation paths, and deadline enforcement during outage execution.
  • Streamline outage planning by eliminating duplicate data entry across plants, operators, and compliance teams
  • Accelerate closeout with automated record generation, configurable workflows, and audit‑ready documentation

Real Time

  • Reduce unexpected downtime by coordinating approvals, alerts, and ISO/NERC‑aligned reporting in real time
  • Respond faster to changing conditions with validated event updates and immediate cross‑team notifications
  • Maintain situational awareness using threshold alerts, weather‑driven ratings, and live outage status tracking

Unified platform and team

"I think the fact that multiple departments can use the same tool, it kind of helps bring all of us together speaking the same language."

- John Mayhew, Senior Real Time Trader, PNM

More time for analysis

"We're able to do our jobs faster and easier, and it just gives us time to focus on analyzing the data, instead of preparing data."

- Brad Lafler, Market Optimization Lead, Lincoln Electric System

Trust through transparency

"I see our PCI relationship more like a peer or a teammate than just a provider or supplier."

- Juan Guichard, CEO, Ammper Energia

Integrated suite of tools

"Having one vendor where all of those different tools and solutions work with each other, it just made sense for us instead of having a vendor to do this and a vendor to do that."

- Jason Smith, Senior Engineer, Santee Cooper

Rapid ROI realized

"PCI's integrated solutions have delivered significant cost savings and efficiency gains for Santee Cooper. Their tools and support have been invaluable to our business."

- Chris Moore, Business Analyst, Santee Cooper

Tailored software solutions

"If PCI isn't able to find a solution directly in their products, we work with them in several different capacities to come up with customizable solutions in their product. And those have worked very well, even through upgrades in their system."

- Tucker Smith, Sr. Market Coordinator, Basin Electric

Collaboration built on trust

"The bottom line is it’s an enterprise solution... everything comes together as one, so that it’s a much easier, supportable process as well as tool set. It has definitely saved us time... PCI delivers so that we can keep moving forward."

- Maureen Kempton, Sr. Manager, Salt River Project

Simplifying settlements, expanding partnership

"We've been able to file disputes with our ISOs and get some money back because we're able to see more data quickly. We've saved a ton of time, probably a couple of days' worth each week going through, looking at PCI data, and validating that way."

- Sara Quintana, Middle Office Manager, Guzman Energy
