This Statement of Work, effective July 1st, 2022, (referred to as "SOW") is subject to and entered intopursuant to the terms and conditions under the current approved “Standard Agreement for EngineeringRelated Professional Services" between the City of Denton and Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company,Inc. executed on December 14th, 2021. Such terms and conditions are incorporated and made a part of thisagreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of the Agreement and this SOW, the terms of this
SOW shall prevail. All capitalized terms in this SOW shall have the meaning assigned herein or, if not definedin this SOW, the meaning assigned in the Agreement.
1 Project Name
Denton Municipal Electric (DME) OMS & ADMS Solution Selection and Consulting Services (the “Project”)
2 Definitions
ADMS - Automated Distribution Management System
CAIDI - Customer average interruption daily index
GIS - Geographic Information System
OMS – Outage Management System
SAIDI - System average interruption duration index
SAIFI – System average interruption frequency index
3 Project Summary
Denton Municipal Electric’s (DME) overall objective is to develop a statement of work that helps to select a
system integrator to implement a new OMS and ADMS systems while potentially integrating with a variety ofthird-party systems.
Additionally, DME has requested 1898 & Co. to provide consulting services to work seamlessly with, andunder the direction of DME to relieve DME of the day-to-day management responsibilities for the ADMS
implementation project (the Project). The 1898 & Co. Senior Consultant will support the analysis, design,documentation, commissioning and other project implementation and technical activities as directed byDME. 1898 & Co. will utilize the DME Integrated Project Management Methodology where available and
conform to DME’s architectural and testing standards, and policies.
The statement of work should be thorough enough to provide potential system integrators the details
needed to provide DME a detailed project approach along with accurate pricing and it should provide DMEstaff with a set of requirements and evaluation criteria that can be used to evaluate potential system
integrators.
As outlined above, an ADMS provides benefits for both the utility and the customer. An ADMS with a good
OMS at its core leads to faster restoration times through automation of the DMS, more efficient dispatching
of crews during outages, and improved customer communications. Utilities with poor performance metrics
(e.g., SAIDI, SAIFI, CAIDI), increasing distributed energy resources, and/or that have an OMS needing

replacement or significant upgrades will find themselves evaluating an ADMS. However, with the expansiveoptions that can come with an ADMS, costs can skyrocket.
4 Project Phases
To support the efforts and provide information to help guide the software selection process and master plan
creation, 1898 & Co. proposes to follow the methodology defined in the following four steps with specific
deliverables for each step.

Deliverables
4.1 Phase 1 - Business Case and Strategy Roadmap
To kick off the Statement of Work development 1898 & Co. will hold a series of requirements gathering
sessions with DME project stakeholders. Our team will initially hold a team kickoff session to set expectations,identify key resources, agree with project timeline and deliverable template. After the kickoff, our team will
host requirements gathering and use case definition sessions with key parties such as: operators, fieldworkers, management, engineering, call center, IT, and reporting; the goal of each session is to define the
requirements and use cases needed for the first phase of an OMS system upgrade.
While the primary focus is on OMS, our team will include questions and topics that will help DME prepare for
future technology options such as ADMS functionality, inclusion of customer DER, and FERC Order 2222. Byunderstanding whereDME sees their transformation going and where they are today, our team will be able toidentify potential future integration concerns, platform updates, and requirements that can be included in the
current RFP as well as start internal organizational change management discussions.
The requirements and use case refinement interviews may occur remotely via Microsoft teams or onsite and
we anticipate meeting with up to 5 different stakeholder groups throughout the requirements refinementprocess. We will release sections of requirements after our refinement sessions for approval as we move from
one team to the next. This parallel requirement approval allows for more focused review sessions and timelydevelopment. Following a review of the information gathered from stakeholders the 1898 & Co. team will
compile the information into a requirements matrix to prepare for the development the Statement of Work.
1898 & Co. will build a Business Case model to eValuate financial viability of DME’s OMS/ADMS program. The
model will evaluate program costs, avoided costs. operational savings, and direct and indirect benefits over
an agreed yearly period. We will leverage prior DME work that identifieg use cages for the OMS/ADMS
systems and build upon prior analysis to develop a future state scenario that can be compared to a status
DocuSign Envelope ID: CC4B9948-3D2D44A7-A092-15FC722BB4BA
Denton Municipal Electric / OMS & ADMS Solution Selection and Consulting Services SOW
quo scenario. Comparison annual costs and benefits of the future state scenario to the status quo scenario
over an extended period will provide a basis for evaluating the overall strength of the business case and
DME’s return on investment (ROI).
The Business Case model will include the following characteristics:
•
•
E
=

•
•
•
Initial capital deployment costs for OMS/ADMS infrastructure and supporting systems
Costs and deployment plan for devices operating on the system
Phased capital spending plan
Staffing and operational costs
Lifecycle infrastructure and device capital replacement costs
Direct and indirect avoided capital costs
Direct and indirect avoided O&M Costs
Customer and environmental impact benefits
The Business Case model will factor in assumed cost escalation and inflation. We will summarize the year
costs and year benefits over an agreed period, as well as presenting the result on a net present value (NPV)
basis for the overall program and ROI. Additional measures such as the Total Resource Cost (TRC) ratio may
be prepared upon request by DME,
Accompanying the model will be an executive summary slide deck that will summarize the methodology,
assumptions, and results for the costs and benefits inputs.

4.2 Phase 2 - RFP Creation Support and Evaluation Material
As part of the RFP development, 1898 & Co. will compile the information gathered during the requirementsrefinement interviews along with important industry standards, Information will be compiled and beincorporated into DME's request for proposal template.

Support DME to assemble vendor response material to drive the assessment based on responses to therequirements regarding how the proposed system meets the listed requirement: Cannot Meet, Future
Release, Out-of-the-Box, Configurations, and With Custom Programming. A numeric score is then calculatedfor each of the systems representing its overall capability to meet DME’s business requirements. This
evaluation method considers the assigned priority of the requirement. It doesn’t adversely impact the score ifthe system cannot provide a low priority requirement.
Conversely, if a "Must Have" requirement requires extensive custom programming, it significantly affects thesystem score. The purpose of this method of evaluation is to select a viable solution with minimalcustomizations. Programming customizations toany system are expensive to develop andrequire considerable post-Go-Live maintenance,Software Features Evaluation
A an outcome of this phase 1898 & Co. willsupport DME to publish the RFP to selectedvendors and support the creation of proposals,vendor interviews, and attend demonstrationsas needed.
The product anna meet the requirement -Out-of-the-Box", “With
Configuration-, “With Custom Programming- or with a “Future Release”.
The current version of the solution cannot meet the requirement "Out of
the Box" or -With Configuration" but will be able to with a scheduled,future release of the product.
The solution meets the requirement as is, "out-of.the.box” functionality
with no configuratIon or custom
As each requirements section is completed, ourteam wIll share with DME key stakeholders per
section for approval. This expedites the review
process so that we are 90% reviewed prior toinclusion of the technical requirements into theDME RFP format. A comprehensive draft will
be shared with DME staff for review and feedback. We anticipate up-to two rounds of updates based onfeedback from DME stakeholders prior to finalizing the content for incorporation into DME’s RFP format.
The solution can meet the requirement by arranging the functional
paramgten that are already inherent in the product - and not bychanging the product’s source code - so that it functions in a way that
meets the LCRA’s specific business needs.

4.3 Phase 3 - Vendor Evaluation & Recommendation
To support a thorough evaluation of responses, 1898 & Co. will assist DME as necessary for a vendor
evaluation matrix. The evaluation matrix will provide a series of criteria based on the requirements gathering
sessions and our industry expertise.
Evaluation criteria includes assessing the capability of each of the bidders in the context of the requirements
documented in the Requirements Matrix, the vendor experience performing similar work, the availability(qualifications) and expertise of staff that will be supporting the projeCt (personnel). information gatheredfrom references, etc. The bidder evaluation matrix will help DME staff provide an objective review of thevendors and will help provide business justification for the system integrator selection recommendations.
In addition to the evaluation criteria, the use cases gathered in Phase 1 will be leveraged for vendordemo/presentations as needed. Following the comprehensive review, interviews with each vendor may bescheduled to understand their product road maps and support capabilities.

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City of Denton (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to
you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for
providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through your DocuSign, Inc.
(DocuSign) Express user account. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly,
and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms
and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the ’I agree’ button at the bottom of
this document.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of the
DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to you
through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such
documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of
any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may
request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must
withdraw your consent using the DocuSign ’Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of your
DocuSign account. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive
required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use your
DocuSign Express user account to receive required notices and consents electronically from us
or to sign electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through your DocuSign user account all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or
made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of
you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please 41so see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
