Council is weighing a contract with Aveva Software to give Austin Energy a process information analytics platform — software that helps the utility track and make sense of its operational data. The deal runs an initial three years with up to two one-year extensions, capped at $2,000,000, with $309,000 currently available in Austin Energy's Capital Budget and the rest contingent on future budgets. For a city-owned utility, tools like this shape how reliably and efficiently the power stays on.
