To introduce "1C" in "Lenenergo" will be a contractor for the construction of fiber-optic lines

Lenenergo decided to redesign the large-scale production asset management system (SUPA), created using the SAP ERP product in 2012-2015.

In July 2016, the company announced its intention to implement all the functionality of OMS using the 1C:ERP Enterprise Management 2.0 product and transfer to it all current and historical, static and dynamic data existing on the basis of SAP.

The winner of the tender for the introduction of 1C in August 2016 was the company VOLS-VL Management, as well as Lenenergo, a subsidiary of Rosseti, specializing in the construction of communication networks. In June 2016, VOLS-VL signed a memorandum of cooperation with 1C.

In 2015, Lenenergo abandoned the use of Oracle bus, in 2016 it intends to stop using SAP ERP

SUPA "Lenenergo" is a set of specially developed methods, regulations, algorithms for accounting, analysis and planning of production programs of the enterprise.

The main tool is an intelligent information system, in the core of which is the database of all the company's power grid equipment.

The OMS contains information about each piece of equipment - from a multi-ton power transformer to an insulator on a high-voltage power transmission line. In total, Lenenergo operates 379 power centers and 15.87 thousand transformer substations. The length of overhead lines along the chains is 40.7 thousand kilometers.

The energy company announced the start of a "large-scale project" to implement the system "based on modern SAP software" in June 2012. The contractor chose the system integrator "Sainer."

Specially developed methods will help the company's specialists to modernize and repair electrical networks as efficiently as possible, "Lenenergo said then. - A complex and multifunctional software product will allow calculating and assessing the technical condition of the equipment, and special methods will help predict the risks of technological violations. Based on these data, power engineers will conclude on the inclusion of equipment in the repair program or on replacement with a new one

In August 2014, the company announced the completion of the first stage of the creation of OMS - equipment certification was carried out and a subsystem for assessing its condition was introduced. For 2015, it was planned to put into commercial operation the maintenance and repair management subsystem^[1].

In connection with the announcement in July 2016 of a tender for the introduction of 1C in exchange for SAP^[2] in Lenenergo told TAdviser that they are acting in accordance with the strategy of Rosseti (the parent company), which involves all subsidiary dependent companies to implement an import substitution policy, including in the field of information technology.

1C software was initially more common in Lenenergo, therefore, in terms of asset management of the company, it was also decided to use 1C ERP systems. In addition, the transition to the products of Russian developers will reduce costs by minimizing payments for licenses and technical support. Thus, Lenenergo operates within the framework of Rosseti's import substitution strategy and optimizes its own costs, "a company representative explained to TAdviser

According to the tender documentation, by the end of December 2016, Lenenergo plans to carry out the first stage of creating an OMS (automate the functions of accounting for the state of equipment, maintenance and repair, accounting for outages, integration with a number of adjacent systems).

To transfer data from SAP ERP to 1C:ERP, the winner of the OLS-VL tender will have to develop mechanisms for migrating data from certification, network topology, and data on the 2016 repair program.

In 2015, Lenenergo also decided to partially abandon the use of Oracle software . Instead of the Oracle Service Bus, the company chose Red Hat JBoss Fuse Service Works.

The main goal of that project was to "increase the security of PAK YISH by replacing foreign-made commercial software products with free software, as well as reduce the cost of ownership and operation due to the lack of license payments for the software used.
