 Pasadena Water and Power GIS Preparation: More Than Just Data Track: System Implementation for GIS Author(s): Timothy Gallagher Pasadena Water and Power (PWP) and consultants MWH, Inc. recently completed a comprehensive, Esri-based GIS design and implementation plan. This Implementation Plan included identifying, designing, and specifying system components, ten GIS applications, architecture, data conversion, systems integration, and organizational changes. The plan, designed to support PWP's core business requirements, technology, staffing, and business solution, ultimately achieves a comprehensive GIS solution. Since most engineering, planning, O&M and data trending tasks had been completed manually for many years, with the majority of the mapping data updated in paper format, PWP's staff reacted with excitement and apprehension to this plan. In order to make a smooth transition into the GIS, PWP GIS Management produced an educational and training campaign to address organizational, task, and staffing changes. This presentation will discuss the Implementation Plan, staffing/political impacts encountered throughout the project and how they were dealt with, and shows where the project is currently.
