FEWA (Federal Electricity & Water Authority), UAE

FEWA is AED-SICAD’s first customer in the United Emirates (UAE) and also the first ArcFM UT customer in the UAE to receive the SAG award. Based on ArcFM UT (Electricity and Water) FEWA has implemented a sophisticated and very advanced GIS centric solution for the support of their day-to-day business processes and operations. The GIS now helps them in concrete problems like “Find old and repaired utility assets and replace them with new ones”, emergency operations or extensive report generation and map printing to name a few out of a long list of problems solved.
