Abstract Description: Transitioning from one communications technology to another is never easy. It involves a lot of strategy, planning, engineering, and design to be able to move from existing communications systems to a new communications system like private LTE/5G. The first steps of an initiative of this magnitude are to develop the business and financial strategies that show the reasons and benefits of taking on such technological transitions. Knowing how to approach developing these strategies and work with the various stakeholders is key to being successful. Stakeholders include those who are responsible for making the decisions on transitioning from existing communications systems to the proposed new communication system like private LTE/5G. Stakeholders who are responsible for the planning, architecture, engineering, and operations of existing grid communications systems and the new grid communication system. And stakeholders from engineers to managers, directors, vice presidents, CTOs, CFOs, COOs, and CEOs. Developing the right business and financial strategies for all stakeholders requires working with each and developing the right set of information for each group: information that is necessary for them to make their decisions. Exelon’s Russ Ehrlich and Burns & McDonnell’s Keith Moll will present and talk about how to approach developing these strategies.
