Summary – Why EIM? PRODUCTS & SERVICES OPERATIONS WORKFORCE ASSETS & FINANCIALS CUSTOMERS ONE

Summary – Why EIM? PRODUCTS & SERVICES OPERATIONS WORKFORCE ASSETS & FINANCIALS CUSTOMERS ONE COMPANY: Single version of the truth, shared management of information assets YESTERDAY • Inefficient access to company-wide information • Multiple companies and multiple functional information silos • Various definitions and rules for information • Limited oversight of information quality and usage • Uncontrolled data proliferation through “spreadmarts” TODAY AND INTO THE FUTURE • Information strategies & stewardship implemented • “One company” approach; functional silos broken for a process view • Highly leverage analytics for Business decisions • Acquisitions expedited • Cost and efficiency gains through improved information access and quality 2

BACKGROUND § In 2005 Duke Energy adopted a strategy of growth through acquisition § Target was 4 X current size over 7 years = 14 states, 12 - 14 M customers, 70, 000 employees § IT was commissioned to build a “scalable platform” to support future M&A § Standardized core systems § Managed business data and information § 1 system / 1 process § “Plug & Play” for future acquisition § 2005 – 2006 acquired/merged with Cinergy = 5 states, 4. 5 M customers, ~19000 employees § Designed and delivered the Information Management Architecture (IMA) for the scalable platform § Future M&A transactions would be executed as acquisitions – target company’s data converted and Duke Energy systems and processes adopted

EIM/IMA Benefits § Reduces Application Dependency § When applications reference each other directly, changing one means all who reference must change also. Hubs eliminate direct reference and an application may change without impacting others. Lower cost of application life cycles. § Provides Single Version of the Truth § When applications maintain their own version of enterprise data, inevitably, that data over time will differ from the other versions found in other applications. Greater confidence in the data. § Provides Integrated Reporting/Analytics § Reports can be constructed from the “single version of the truth” directly rather than replicating data from various sources into numerous report-specific copies. Fewer data and reporting errors. § Multiple systems performing the same function—whether region-specific customer information, or systems of newly acquired companies—contribute to singular, consolidated reporting. Lower cost to prepare consolidated reports. Total cost is lowered while information becomes more reliable

What is a Data Hub? § A Data Hub is a collection of data

What is a Data Hub? § A Data Hub is a collection of data for a specific business subject area and is the authoritative source of data for application integration, and the authoritative source of data for reporting and analytics. § Each data hub is comprised of an operational data store (ODS) for system integration, and a data warehouse (DW) for reporting/business intelligence/analytics §The collection of subject area data warehouses in the IMA comprise Duke Energy’s enterprise data warehoues Based on this concept we manage information independent of the applications supporting business processes.

Business Strategy Changes Again § 2011 – Duke Energy merges with Progress Energy to create the largest IOU in US. Announces it will probably execute another acquisition once Progress deal closes. Agility and Flexibility are keys to success. EIM should be able to support any business strategy with little to no change. Duke Energy’s IMA currently supports 3 major strategic initiatives… 12

Successes To-Date § People. Soft Financials 8. 9 avoided interface costs § EAM able to design its interfaces to Finances and Customers data hubs rather than being dependent on projects in those areas. § Customers data hub allows a single interface in spite of their being four customer information systems. OLS (~$200 K /yr avoidance) , e. Bill, IVR (~$750 K/yr avoidance) all benefit through interface consolidation § Enterprise Customer System architecture - ~$3 M/2009 – 10 avoidance § Customer data hub allows consolidated customer business intelligence (retail marketing, call center agent operations). § Financial analysts spend less time on data verification and more time on data analysis due to improved data quality § Financial report run times greatly reduced. Some taking hours before now run in minutes. § Supply chain and work management report designers need not understand complex Maximo (e. Max) data structures, only the hub structures which are designed specifically for business intelligence and analytics

Challenges Remain Category Challenge Response Call to Action Change Management Pushback from projects: “it costs more” Building hubs is a lower cost approach, although projects that build them are often not the beneficiary. Optimizing costs in total across the Company and over time sometimes means incurring higher costs in certain areas. Promote the use of data hubs for data sharing: – Find out what major projects in respective areas are and are not using hubs – Demonstrate your support for utilization given the benefits – Ensure projects include resource scope for data hubs Managing data independent of applications The tendency is to think in terms of applications. But application are narrow in scope whereas hubs are intended to meet broad requirements across the Company. Build out and populate the hubs: – Sponsor projects to identify enterprise requirements (external to “owning” area) – Sponsor and sequence projects to close gaps left by application projects Prioritization and funding when dependency is on others to provision information Data hub owners serve the needs of Duke Energy, but those needing the data usually don’t control the resources that can populate hubs. Ensure areas supporting a data hub budget for continued build out: – Review with each hub owner their plans and budgets – Anticipate additional data needs Ramifications of an “enterprise data platform”
