14 How do we change?

15 © 2012 Autodesk Key Factors to Drive Successful Change  Articulate the case for change throughout all levels of the organization  Establish a clear vision, and always maintain alignment  Utilize process mapping to identify change impacts: As-Is/To-Be  Engage the stakeholders and end users early on and frequently  Manage scope and align expectations  Communication, Communication, Communication!  Drive down communication to all levels  Communication the right level of information to the right target audience

16 © 2012 Autodesk Driving Change - High Level Approach Define major impacts Validate impacts with business areas Identify potential options Identify pros and cons Validate options with business areas Blueprint Realization Propose Option Review and approve with business Interfaces & Systems Business process changes Testing and training Process & Technical Mapping & validate with business Define End-State Vision Identify business impacts Identify options for each business area Propose Options Execute Deliverables The solution was arrived at using input from: Key Operational Areas Distribution Transmission Substations Finance Supply Chain BP&TI Executive Leadership

17 Workforce challenges facing electric power Center for Energy Workforce Development

18 © 2012 Autodesk Generational Difference in workforce Four generations currently in the workforce  Traditionalists (1900-1945)  Characteristics include:  Hard working  Respect authority  Self sacrificing  Baby Boomers (1946-1964)  Characteristics include:  Optimistic  Idealistic  Social change  Anything is possible

19 © 2012 Autodesk Generational Difference in workforce  Generation X (1965-1980)  Characteristics include:  Skepticism  Suspicious of authority  Work-Life balance  Millennials (1981-1999)  Characteristics include:  Tech savvy  Global views  Flexible  Collaboration

20 © 2012 Autodesk Generational Difference: Why does it matter?  One size does NOT fit all when it comes to change management  Recognize and be aware of the make up of the change audience  Adapt style based on this awareness  In large groups, multiple approaches will be necessary  Communication Styles  Social media  Emails from Sponsors  Knowledge transfer sessions  Roadshows  Motivation  Define benefits – these may not be the same for all groups  Answer the question…”WIIIFM?”  The answer will be different depending on who is in the audience  The key will be finding the right motivation for the target

21 © 2012 Autodesk Observations about the Differences  Traditionalists & Baby Boomers  Can be resistant to technology changes  Technology “replacing” experience  Culture Change - “This is how we used to do it…”  “Old” methods worked better  Gen X’ers & Millennials  Exposed to technology from very early age  Seek technology to enable success  Gaining experience while utilizing technology  May lack detailed understanding

22 © 2012 Autodesk Change Management – Additional Considerations  Involve the “right” people early in requirements development  Decision makers – must be in the room  It’s just as important to include adversaries as it is advocates  Well defined scope enables well defined change management strategy  Assess your impacts - know what your requirements will change  Process changes are just as important as technology changes  Change management in an unstable requirements atmosphere can lead to chasing your tail

23 © 2012 Autodesk How Do I Support This Change??? Who Will Do All Of This Work??? Where Do I Start???

24 © 2012 Autodesk A Phased Business Engagement Approach User Experience will provide an opportunity to strategically transfer solution knowledge to the Business during the various stages of the project ERP Project Team Business Partners & Business Line Advisors Business Line Key Employees Business Line Super Users Solution Exposure Blueprint Build & Realization Deployment & Go-Live Business Line Employees Solution Understanding/Ownership

25 © 2012 Autodesk Stakeholder Roles & Responsibilities

26 © 2012 Autodesk Super User Strategy  Super User profile  Has experience required to be an “expert”  Has credibility with peers  Advocates for change & shares information well  How to utilize?  Involved from requirements through stabilization  Kept aware of the progress / changes  Review contributes to design documentation  Training  Receive training directly  Responsible for end user training of their group  Local “go-to” person for questions / immediate support

27 © 2012 Autodesk Super User Strategy  Benefits  Obtaining end-user feedback early in development process  Building skillset of SU’s  Creating initial support resource that is local  Better connection to end-user during training  Can utilize relevant examples or “real work”  More 1-1 individual attention  Assists with identifying Change Impacts End Users Super Users Project Team

28 © 2012 Autodesk Understand the “As-is” vs the “To-Be”

29 © 2012 Autodesk Project Impact Assessment  High - Use new transaction; extensive training required; critical activity; significant down-stream impact to workforce.  Medium – Viewing new transaction; medium training required; moderate downstream impact; involves a moderate number of employees.  Low – Optimizing capabilities; minimal training; few employees impacted; non-critical transaction.

Visio / AUD will be standard product for work order designs H Adherence to design standards /Planners/Designers will be required to utilize DM / AUD for all designs. AUD will have automated material capabilities via design. 2. Excel / AUD engineering approved functionality H Consistent calculations / AUD Integrates engineering capabilities (voltage drop, wind loading and cable pulling) with a CAD based system design. 3. DPIS/Design Manager (DM)H DM will allow search/retrieve data, equipment records, TLM and structures. Does not exclude access to Google Earth for additional information. 4. Inability to / Ability to import Customer drawings and FIM H Less time creating maps. FIM drawings filed centrally and auto converted for quicker FIM updates from actual construction. H H H H

31 © 2012 Autodesk Organizational Change Impacts  Utilize visualization methods (“Heat Maps”) to assess overall organizational impacts and volume of change  Bottoms-Up (worker level) perspective  Include Change Management activity impacts for Leadership Role201220132014 Q4Q1Q2Q3Q4Q1Q2 Dist PlannerProject 1 (I) Project 1(A) AUD (I)AUD (A) Dist DesignerProject 2 (I)Proj 2(A) Trans EstimatorProject 1 (I) Project 1(A) AUD (I)AUD (A) Trans EngineeringProject 1 (I)Project 1(A) Leadership Planning SupProject 1 (I) Project 1(A) District ManagerProject 1/2(A) Transmission Manager (I) = ImplementationHighMediumLow (A) = Absorption

33 © 2012 Autodesk Proficiency and Utilization After Changes  With significant change, not all users will be fully proficient immediately  Set realistic utilization and proficiency goals  Must have leadership support to “make it stick”!  Put controls in place to support & measure utilization  Training MUST be aligned to support both utilization and proficiency  Training and support are both critical and must be ongoing

34 © 2012 Autodesk Define Success: AUD Proficiency Levels 1-4 Level 1 Level 3 Level 2 Level 4 AUD Designing To Scale with Full Engineering AUD Drawing Not to Scale AUD Drawing To Scale AUD Designing To Scale & Simple Engineering Information in systems is connected Not yet utilizing AUD’s engineering functions On the road to future GIS vision Follows AUD Design Process Uses AUD’s working engineering functions Allows tool to select, order,& upload material Auto material selection utilized for AUD calculations Peripheral engineering tools still in use Supports future GIS vision Basic introduction to draft 1 st step towards supporting the vision of system connectivity and a GIS enabled future Reduces redundant work Leverages full capability Fully supports future GIS vision

35 © 2012 Autodesk Lesson Learned  T&D is a complex set of businesses that requires a thorough understanding of the work flows and handoffs  Strong leadership is necessary to drive the solution home:  Early, frequent, and intense engagement at all levels  Highly targeted readiness and communications efforts  Phase implementation of technology, process changes, or both  Establish clear utilization expectations & continue to sustain change post stabilization  Identify metrics early on and ensure supporting data will be available  Acknowledge that productivity dips are a natural part of the process  Culture change is much more difficult than technical change
