(Midwest ISO) for their Outage Scheduling system. The product will provide improved performance, integration, automation, coordination, notification, compliance and auditability for Midwest ISO's Outage Coordination processes.

Based in Carmel, Indiana, Midwest ISO monitors the high-voltage electric transmission system between generating plants, wholesale power transmitters and wholesale customers.
