DMS Software is 21st-century Windows-oriented software package for performing all technical tasks in distribution utilities in an efficient and optimal way. This modern software tool enables the distribution utility's staff:
(1) to get a high-quality knowledge about their own distribution network
(2) to design and manage the network's power and automation equipment in order to maximize the quality and quantity of the electrical energy supplied to the consumers and
(3) to maximize the profit (revenue) from the investments spent for this equipment.
DMS Software is modularly organized package with three-tier software architecture. In this way, DMS Software could be very easily sliced, customized and tailored in full accordance with customer requirements. DMS Software is based on standard software solutions that enable its very simple integration with other standard software and hardware equipment applied in the environment of electricity distribution (SCADA Systems, equipment for medium voltage (MV) automation, etc.). The DMS Software is a unique industry-grade product of this kind. More than 50 installations worldwide guarantee the quality of this product. Introduction
DMS Software is modularly organized package with three-tier software architecture presented in the figure. The database is placed in the first tier. The middle (Second) tier is the business tier with the DMS Server. All user interfaces, DMS Analytical Functions System and SCADA System are located in the third tier. All solutions are standard in the sense that they can be easily replaced or customized in accordance with customer requirements.

DMS Analytical Functions System is the "brains" of DMS Software. It consists of a rich set of analytical functions that are used for performing all technical tasks in the distribution utility: operation management and optimization, operation planning, power equipment maintenance, network state analysis and utility's staff training and network development planning.
The middle (business) tier is based on the
omniORB,
robust high performance
CORBA ORB
for C++. It provides high-quality DMS Software administration and its connection with third parties' databases, SCADA Systems and standard automation equipment.
Open architecture and very comprehensive database, as well as extremely well tailored and user-friendly graphical user interface are two most attractive components of DMS Software. The database comprises all necessary technical data for distribution network elements. Moreover, database is open for customers who want to extend it with new attributes necessary for the certain utility. The user interface - Dynamic Mimic Diagram (DMD) - provides several simultaneous views on the considered distribution network: both the schematic and geographical view of the MV and low voltage (LV) utility's network, views of substations and MV power equipment (e.g. distribution substations) encompassed by the SCADA System(s) and insight into all technical data of each distribution network's element.
