Vendor Lock-In Exit for Energy in Abu Dhabi

Migrating away from a locked-in vendor while preserving data and compliance certification. Delivered for energy organizations in Abu Dhabi with UAE PDPL and DIFC compliance built in — not assessed after the system ships.

The Problem

Energy in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi utilities locked into OSIsoft, Oracle Utilities, or GE Grid Solutions where the data formats are proprietary and UAE PDPL and DIFC NERC CIP compliance certifications are tied to the platform configuration. Exit requires a migration path that maintains compliance certification continuity.

1,162 cyberattacks on utilities in 2024 — 70% increase year over year. Grid vulnerability points growing by 60 per day. $174B in capital expenditure with 'patchy returns' on digital transformation. Utilities are spending massively and getting mediocre results from legacy vendors and Big 4 consultants.
