Restore supply faster, maintain networks proactively and meet regulatory reporting requirements with confidence.
Fragmented systems slow restoration and weaken compliance.
When outage data, network records and field operations are managed in separate systems, restoring supply can take longer and regulatory reporting requires manual compilation. Forcelink and its outage management system, Powerlink, bring network data, field teams, assets and customer communications together on one platform, with integrations to SAP, SCADA and GIS. Powerlink can be deployed even where network data is incomplete, allowing the network model to be refined over time.
Faster restoration
Outages traced, grouped and dispatched from one live view.
Regulator-ready
SAIDI, SAIFI, CAIDI, CAIFI and NRS-047 reports from live data.
A network you can trust
Model, edit and improve network data incrementally.
Informed customers
Customers report faults and follow restoration through portals.
Powerlink
Powerlink, outage management built for power utilities.
Powerlink is Forcelink's web-based outage management system, delivered as SaaS. It manages planned and unplanned outages from first report to restoration, connecting the electrical network model, field crews, assets and customers on one platform. Utilities can start with limited network data and build the model incrementally, so value arrives before the network is fully captured.

Sectors
Outage and network management for power utilities
Powerlink connects outage management with field operations to help power utilities coordinate restoration and monitor network performance. Manage planned and unplanned outages, switching and abnormal plant conditions, while keeping crews and customers informed. Network modelling and root cause analysis support fault investigation, while regulatory reports draw on the same operational data.
