Engineering expertise.
Now AI-accelerated.
SVG Consulting is a management strategy and engineering firm serving the electric utility industry. We help utilities plan, design, and execute large-scale transformation programs, combining deep industry expertise with practical engineering and technology solutions.
Our capabilities span business process reengineering, enterprise work and asset management, GIS strategy, grid modernization, data analytics, and full-cycle distribution engineering.
Through Agentic AI, we extend our expertise directly into our customers' operations — embedding proven engineering knowledge, methodologies, and decision-making processes into intelligent workflows that accelerate execution, improve consistency, and enable utilities to accomplish more with their existing resources.

Consulting & Engineering
Expertise Across the Utility Lifecycle
SVG Consulting helps electric utilities develop and execute strategies that transform business operations, modernize grid infrastructure, and improve operational performance. We combine management consulting with deep engineering expertise, guiding major utilities through multi-year transformation programs — from strategic planning and investment roadmaps to technology implementation and engineering execution. Our experience spans the full Design–Build–Operate–Maintain lifecycle, connecting long-term vision with practical, measurable results.
Utility strategy and transformation
Business architecture, operating model, and process transformation. At a major California utility, SVG developed a "Day in the Life" strategic vision that became the guiding document for every technology and business process project in the program.
- Strategic vision and business architecture
- Business process re-engineering and work method standardization
- Vendor selection and implementation oversight
- Metrics and resource deployment strategy
GIS and work management
GIS strategy and enterprise work and asset management — land base, data analysis, conflation, consolidation, and integration, through to scheduling and field mobility.
- GIS strategy and integration services (Esri ArcGIS)
- Enterprise Work and Asset Management (SAP PM)
- Graphical Design Tools (GDT) and compatible unit development
- Work scheduling and wireless field tools
Distribution engineering
Planning, design, field data collection, and structural analysis for electric utilities and communications companies — delivered by our engineering and planning experts.
- Distribution planning, design, drafting, and cost estimates
- Field data collection and inspections
- Pole structural and wind loading — SPIDA, O-Calc
- Fiber optic route planning, make-ready, and construction drawings
- Traffic control plans, permitting, base maps
- Staff augmentation for planning and engineering functions
Smart grid and AMI analytics
Turning utility load profiles into operational intelligence. SVG built the approach for a pilot integrating smart meter voltage and consumption data with the network GIS, giving engineers asset loading visibility in their native applications.
- Load and voltage profiles at customer level
- Aggregation at transformer and circuit level
- Load forecasting and capacity planning
- Heat maps and thermal analysis
- Web-based interfaces integrated with native GIS applications
Engineering software
The tools our engineers work in day to day — industry platforms we license, and the one we built.
How we deliver
Two ways to engage SVG.
Both routes draw on the same engineering practice. Most utilities use both — consultants to set direction, the platform to carry the volume.
