Transforming a transformer manufacturer's tech stack to today's standards.
Client
Waukesha is one of the largest U.S. manufacturers of power transformers for electrical grids. The company provides its power utility customers with complete transformer service solutions as well as hardware components. As a 50-year old company, they had mostly legacy systems in place that struggled to keep up with newer technologies and demands. They came to Omniwyse for a series of key modernizations.
Challenges
Modernize nearly every part of Waukesha's older IT systems while avoiding the risk of conflicts with existing hardware infrastructure.
The core programs were written in a mix of Fortran and C, with no documentation. This required study of the overall algorithm and re-calculating.
The current, highly primitive user interface required a modern technology stack.
Their legacy-grade T146 and WDES needed several enhancements.
Solution Highlights
Moved the core system to a modern technology stack using Python.
Implemented additional enhancements and integrated other components, giving Waukesha's engineers a set of smoother, faster controls.
Moved all other transformer programs to a modern tech stack.
Made the Daisy system (T146 and WDES) programs run on new hardware with Windows or Linux OS.
All of the up-to-date programs were successfully migrated and fully optimized on
installation. Waukesha is now future-ready for any new integrations they may need.
Portfolio
Genfare
The task was to enable, test and configure the software for a seamless fare collection system for public transit agencies. Read how we delivered both rider-friendly mobile payment programs and the cloud-hosted backend infrastructure to support them.
Sharecare
Small applications can fill a variety of roles for healthcare providers, from accessing information in various databases to monitoring patient care. Omniwise helped this healthcare app developer deliver a robust, integrated set of tools to its provider customers.
Quixey
Apps for large companies like Samsung, Microsoft and Google require AI-based search capabilities. Omniwyse's solution helped Quixey present a highly validated and scalable Deep View Card platform to its prospective customers for rapid onboarding of their AI-enabled apps.
Aiqudo
Aiqudo had the core technology for its ground-breaking voice command technology for mobile apps, but they were running out of time to build it. With our help, Aiqudo was able to fully develop its Q Actions Platform, while meeting its ambitious timeline for bringing their innovative product to market.
Waukesha
This manufacturer of industrial transformers had a primitive enterprise OS that needed a complete overhaul. See how we modernized their entire tech stack and successfully migrated all the new software to run on all-new hardware.
My Box
This maker of set-top device boxes had just two months to build and deploy a new OS with a robust set of new capabilities. Here’s the story of how we made that happen.
