What if you could predict a transformer failure before it happens?

QEI's AI-powered Predictive Maintenance system - built into our QConnect EAM Package - gives utilities a three-dimensional view of asset health:

✅ Will it fail in the next 90 days?
✅ How many days until failure?
✅ What type of failure is coming?

Using machine learning models trained on real SAIDI/SAIFI grid data, QConnect helps utilities reduce unplanned outages by up to 60%, extend asset life, and move from reactive repairs to intelligent, proactive maintenance.

The grid doesn't sleep, but your team deserves the confidence to. Ask us how QConnect EAM is transforming electrical asset management.

The numbers don't lie — automation is transforming utility operations.

→ Predictive maintenance can increase asset lifespan by up to 20–30%
→ Utilities using predictive strategies have reported up to 50–70% fewer unplanned outages
→ IoT and AI applications are projected to generate up to $300 billion in annual value for utilities globally by 2030

At QEI, we help utilities capture these gains through integrated hardware, software, and services - from real-time SCADA monitoring to full ADMS solutions that put the right data in front of your team at the right time.

The question isn't whether to modernize. It's whether you have the right partner to do it.

Strong field service isn’t just about showing up—it’s about having the right people who listen, adapt, and continuously improve alongside you.

At QEI, our Customer Service team works directly with utilities in the field, supporting everything from commissioning and troubleshooting to ongoing system optimization. But what sets them apart is how closely they stay connected to customer needs and feedback.

As one North American Utility shared:
“QEI is always making improvements to their product, and it is almost always a result of customer feedback. QEI listens, acts, and highlights the improvements every year at the user conferences. Great job QEI!”
That kind of feedback reflects how our team operates—bringing real-world insights back into the product and ensuring systems continue to evolve with the people who rely on them every day.
Because in critical environments, it’s not just about the system—it’s about the people behind it.

Outages don’t just disrupt operations - they impact customers, crews, and critical decisions in real time.
QEI’s QConnect Outage Management System (OMS) is designed to give utilities the visibility and control needed to respond faster and smarter.
QConnect OMS helps teams:
• Predict and locate outages quickly
• Visualize the network in real time with customizable displays and map layers
• Improve decision-making with accurate, actionable data
• Optimize crew response and resource allocation
With a single, easy-to-maintain network model and real-time communication with SCADA, OMS provides a clear picture of what’s happening across the system—so teams can act with confidence.
From automatic fault location to incident management and service restoration, OMS supports utilities in reducing outage duration and improving reliability.

Control houses are often one of the most complex parts of a project—but they don’t have to be.
At QEI, we take a different approach by delivering fully integrated control house solutions that simplify the entire process from start to finish. Instead of coordinating multiple vendors, managing separate systems, and navigating gaps in communication, everything is designed, built, tested, and delivered as one cohesive solution.
That means a single point of contact, clear accountability, and systems that are ready to perform when they arrive on site.
From utilities to rail and industrial environments, these integrated control houses are built to support critical operations where reliability, safety, and efficiency aren’t optional—they’re required.
If you’re planning a project and looking to reduce complexity while improving outcomes, it starts with how the system is designed and delivered.

QEI provides integrated control house solutions designed to simplify substation projects for electric utilities. From engineering and procurement to factory ...
