ADMS and utility operations platform for electric, water, and transit systems
Survalent operates a 60-year-old utility software business, transitioning infrastructure from Excel-based workflows into Salesforce while building real-time outage management capabilities. The hiring mix—sales and engineering at near parity, plus support and quality roles—reflects a shift toward sales-led growth and operational scaling. Tech stack (Node.js, React, TypeScript, SQL Server) suggests modernization in progress, but pain-point data reveals friction: low adoption, stalled projects, and persistent shadow systems indicate the core challenge isn't feature breadth but customer implementation and change management.
Survalent develops advanced distribution management systems (ADMS) and related software for utilities managing electric, renewable energy, oil & gas, water/wastewater, and transit networks. The SurvalentONE platform integrates SCADA, outage management, distribution automation, demand response, substation automation, and renewable energy management. Over 800 customers across 40 countries operate the system. The company is based in Brampton, Ontario and employs 51–200 people. Current strategic priorities include migrating from legacy Excel reporting to Salesforce, designing executive dashboards, and improving product quality and project delivery margins.
Frontend: React, Angular, TypeScript, HTML5, JavaScript. Backend: Node.js, SQL Server, IIS, AWS Database Migration Service. Tools: Salesforce, Jira, Confluence, Microsoft Office suite (PowerPoint, Excel, Word, Visio, Project). Design: Adobe Creative Cloud.
Current projects include: transitioning from Excel-based reporting to Salesforce, building real-time outage management software, designing executive dashboards, improving documentation workflows, and delivering ADMS implementations. Strategic focus includes renewable energy grid optimization and project margin improvement.
