This customer oversees the electrical grid for a large region of the southern United States. This challenge entails monitoring the status of the grid in real time, adjusting the electrical supply from hundreds of providers to satisfy demand and to route power around points of failure, all while observing demanding federal regulations for maintaining and providing accuracy, reliability, and oversight.
Forum provides and supports the real-time voice infrastructure used to facilitate instant communication between the customer and their hundreds of provider organizations such as electric power generating companies.

Initially deployed over circuit-switched voice T1s, Forum designed and successfully implemented a Phase II which included a migration to secure SIP / VoIP connectivity for the hundreds of existing provider organizations.
