Epoch Solutions Group, a leading provider of geospatial and mobile workforce solutions for the utility industry, today announced it has earned the Esri Network Management Specialty. The designation recognizes Epoch Solutions Group’s deep industry knowledge and ongoing commitment to helping utilities modernize infrastructure, streamline operations, and make smarter, data-driven decisions.
Esri, the global leader in geographic information system (GIS) technology, awards this specialty to partners who demonstrate advanced capabilities in utility network implementation. As an Esri Gold Partner, Epoch Solutions Group joins a select group of organizations with validated expertise in aligning with Esri’s latest network management technologies.
“This recognition affirms our long-term vision of helping utilities evolve into resilient, data-driven enterprises,” said James Street, CEO of Epoch Solutions Group. “Modern utilities face enormous pressure to transform how they operate—and our mission is to be the trusted partner that accelerates that transformation. With the Epoch UN Blueprint, we provide not just a technical path forward, but a sustainable foundation for smarter, more responsive infrastructure.”
Epoch Solutions Group’s proven approach recently helped Delta Utilities—a fast-growing gas utility serving over 380,000 customers—migrate legacy GIS data from GE Smallworld to the Esri Utility Network. Using EpochSync Pro and the Epoch UN Blueprint, the utility achieved a 60% reduction in manual data mapping and configuration hours, completed implementation on one of the industry’s most aggressive timelines, and launched a unified network with zero errors at cutover.
“Leveraging EpochSync Pro and the Epoch UN Blueprint methodology, Epoch Solutions Group was instrumental in accelerating the conversion from a fragmented GIS environment to a unified Esri Utility Network,” said Mark Mitchell, director, operations technology at Delta Utilities. “Their robust integration, automation, and synchronization capabilities streamlined the data migration process, reduced manual intervention, and ensured data integrity throughout. These tools enabled the team to meet an aggressive project timeline without compromising quality and offered a highly efficient and reliable solution for this critical GIS transition.”
The Esri Network Management Specialty reinforces Epoch’s reputation as a high-impact partner for utilities aiming to reduce technical risk, speed deployment, and ensure long-term sustainability of their digital infrastructure.
