ELUME isnโ€™t about replacing whatโ€™s working. Itโ€™s about making it work even better.

Many utilities already have strong vegetation management programs, experienced teams, and established processes. But even a good program can benefit from greater visibility.

EMPACT Vegetation Insights (EVI) helps utilities uncover risks they may not currently account for and turn those insights into actionable work plans.

From the CEO and CFO to the people working in the field, teams can access shared information to make better decisions and move work forward.

Better visibility. More informed decisions. A clearer path from data to action.

Some of your most valuable member insights may be missing from your vegetation management decisions.

Co-ops have more data than ever to help identify vegetation risks, prioritize work, and plan for the future.

But thereโ€™s valuable information that doesnโ€™t always make it into the analysis.

As Doc explains, member services teams have firsthand knowledge of the communities their co-ops serve. They understand member concerns, local conditions, and priorities that can add important context to vegetation management decisions.

That perspective deserves a seat at the table alongside engineering, operations, and vegetation management.

Bringing these teams together gives co-ops a more complete understanding of their systems and the people who depend on them.

Ultimately, the goal isnโ€™t better vegetation management. Itโ€™s making better decisions for the members you serve.

A question worth thinking about: How involved is your member services team in vegetation management planning?

Utilities arenโ€™t short on data. LiDAR, GIS, work records, and field reports are everywhere. The harder part is turning all of it into decisions your team can stand behind.

Here are 4 changes that help close that gap:

* Move from data volume to causal modeling
* Close the field-to-office feedback loop
* Measure risk reduced, not just miles cleared
* Institutionalize synthesis across teams

The goal is simple: help utility teams use what they already know to make better decisions for the people they serve.

Introducing ELUME Field, the newest addition to EMPACT Engineeringโ€™s ELUME platform.

For too long, field crews have relied on paper work orders, disconnected systems, and manual updates to communicate whatโ€™s happening in the field.

Thereโ€™s a better way.

ELUME Field puts the work plan directly in the crewโ€™s hands, connecting field operations with the people managing the work.

With ELUME Field, crews can:

โœ“ See assigned work on a map and navigate directly to the job.

โœ“ Capture field data and photos without switching between systems.

โœ“ Update work status and completions directly from the field.

โœ“ Work offline when cellular coverage isnโ€™t available, with updates syncing automatically when connectivity returns.

โœ“ Keep everyone informed with progress visibility through the ELUME platform.

Less paperwork. Better visibility. More work getting done.

And because no two utilities operate exactly alike, ELUME Field is designed to support the way your teams work, not force them into another disconnected process.

Available on iOS and Android, ELUME Field is included with the ELUME platform.

Better information shouldnโ€™t have to wait until the crew gets back to the office.

New to ELUME? Hereโ€™s the big picture in under 30 seconds.

At EMPACT, we believe better vegetation management starts with a clearer picture of the entire utility system.

Thatโ€™s the goal behind EMPACT Vegetation Insights (EVI): helping utilities understand where risk exists, prioritize work, and make informed decisions.

ELUME brings those insights together with field and internal operations in one software platform, connecting the decision-makers with the people doing the work.

One system. Better visibility. A clearer path from insight to action.

Hear how weโ€™re helping utilities take a more connected approach to vegetation management.

Utility engineers are being asked to plan with confidence while the system keeps changing underneath them.

Uncertain load growth. Aging infrastructure. Disconnected data.

Each creates a different planning challenge, but they share a common thread: engineers are making long-term decisions with information that is constantly changing.

The answer isnโ€™t eliminating uncertainty. Itโ€™s building a clearer picture of the system despite it.

When utilities can connect their data, understand how different inputs relate, and apply experience across systems, uncertainty becomes something they can plan around rather than a blind spot.

The spreadsheet problem is everywhere.

We see it across utilities, co-ops, and the contractors working alongside them: separate spreadsheets, separate records, and eventually, different versions of the truth.

The problem isnโ€™t the spreadsheet itself. Itโ€™s the time teams spend reconciling information and determining which record actually reflects reality.

When you bring everyone into the same system with ELUME, that time can be spent on something more valuable.

Utilities and their contractors can work from one shared record, have better conversations, and focus on decisions that move the work forward.

One source of truth means less time reconciling and more time solving problems.

Utilities have more data than ever. But more data doesnโ€™t automatically mean more wisdom.

For Doc, wisdom means cutting through the noise and focusing on the information that actually helps utilities understand risk and make better decisions.

He sees four ways to get there:

1. Give the data context.
LiDAR can show where vegetation and encroachment exist. The next step is understanding how that vegetation behaves under different conditions and what that means for the system.

2. Connect the desk and the field.
Models get better when real-world observations feed back into them. What crews see in the field can sharpen the analysis that guides future work.

3. Measure impact, not just activity.
Miles cleared tells you what was done. Risk reduction tells you what the work accomplished. Better KPIs can help utilities move from tracking activity to understanding results.

4. Break down the silos.
GIS, operations, engineering, arborists, and foresters each see a different part of the system. Bringing those perspectives together creates a more complete picture.

Thatโ€™s how utilities can begin closing the gap between having data and knowing what to do with it.

More information isnโ€™t the end goal. Better decisions are.

10/06/2026

Reducing a utility system to a single number is a red flag.

A single metric might tell you how much vegetation work is needed, but what it doesnโ€™t show is the impact of leaving that work undone.

That context matters.

Through EVI and the vegetation module in ELUME, we work with co-ops to look beyond a single number and understand where vegetation risk exists and what deserves attention.

Because the goal isnโ€™t just more data. Itโ€™s knowing what the data means for your system.
