What changes when it is energy & utilities
Permission-aware retrieval is not optional in an enterprise. If a user cannot open a document in SharePoint, the assistant must not quote it. We enforce that at the retrieval layer, not in the prompt.
In energy & utilities, assets are remote, connectivity is poor, and failure has safety consequences. That single fact reshapes how rag & knowledge retrieval has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is outage prediction and response, usually integrated against SCADA. Every engagement opens with a measurement: the cycle time, the cost per transaction, or the error rate we are being asked to move.
Multi-model by default, so a provider outage is a routing decision rather than an incident. We hand over with runbooks, tests and a team that knows how it works, not a dependency.
The sector constraints we design around
- Defining constraint
- assets are remote, connectivity is poor, and failure has safety consequences
- Regulations in scope
- CEA regulations · state electricity regulatory commissions · environmental clearances · grid safety standards
- Systems of record
- SCADA · GIS · outage management · asset management · billing systems
- Where we usually start
- predictive maintenance on assets

Questions from this sector
Can it work with our SCADA data?
Yes, SCADA historians hold years of usable signal that is very often untouched for analytics.
What about remote sites with no connectivity?
Edge processing with store-and-forward sync, which is the standard pattern for distributed energy assets.
RAG or fine-tuning?
RAG for knowledge that changes and must be cited; fine-tuning for style, format and task behaviour. Most production systems use RAG for the facts and light fine-tuning or few-shot prompting for the form.
How accurate will it be?
We build a labelled question set from your domain and report retrieval precision and answer accuracy against it. That number is the deliverable. We do not ship a system whose quality nobody has measured.
Can it respect our existing permissions?
Yes. Retrieval is filtered by the user's actual entitlements, so the assistant can never surface a document the user could not already open.
