Utilities must be able to develop IT tools fast enough to address today´s emerging business needs, such as open transmission access, real-time pricing, etc. This article describes a client-server implementation launched at Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in 1994 to meet the utility´s operational-planning needs. The article summarises some of the lessons learned and outlines future development plans
