Beyond Compliance │Part 1: Why Asset History Matters
Discover why asset history matters for compliance, cybersecurity, and grid resilience.
This episode is the first in a new miniseries exploring how software supports compliance readiness in power system testing and substation operations.
Every protection test leaves behind more than a test report. It becomes part of an asset’s history, including protection settings, firmware versions, maintenance activities, configuration changes, and the documentation that explains what happened and why. As substations become more digital, preserving this history is becoming increasingly important for compliance, cybersecurity, and grid resilience.
In Part 1, OMICRON Regional Training Manager Will Scheibe explains why utilities need reliable access to asset history long after the original work is completed.
Will explains how connected records help engineers, asset managers, cybersecurity teams, and auditors understand not only what changed, but why. He also describes how OMICRON’s ADMO software combined with its InSight visualization platform supports structured asset, test, maintenance, and configuration data across the asset lifecycle.

"Setting in place the processes to make decisions and to gather data is just as important as the decisions and the data themselves."
