The Army Meter Data Management System (MDMS): A Case Study for Army MDMS Pilot

Abstract

What is the Army Meter Data Management System (MDMS)? MDMS is an enterprise system to track the Army's energy and water consumption worldwide. It tracks meter data from advanced utility meters in a central database (MDMS Enterprise); automates meter data collection on a secure network, produces energy reports accessible via Army Engineering Knowledge Online (EKO) and MDMS Enterprise Portal, and provides Army installations the ability to track utility commodities consumption at the facility level. MDMS Serves the Army in Meeting Its Energy Goals. MDMS will help the Army to comply with the following Federal Mandates: Energy Policy Act of 2005 (EPAct 2005), Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA 2007), Other Executive Orders, and Army Programs Like Net Zero and LEED Silver. Three locations have active meter reporting -- over 195 meters as of 1 May 2011: Fort Carson, CO; Fort Stewart, GA; and the U.S. Military Academy (West Point, NY).
