He has also assisted with developing requests for proposals (RFPs) and evaluating proposals against those RFPs as part of AMI procurement activities. Aaron worked with vendors and utilities to develop and implement an AMI test bed focused on communications networking performance and interoperability. Aaron was the deputy project manager for the EnerNex team contracted through NIST in support of the Smart Grid interoperability standards development and harmonization project. His primary technical role in the project was standards acceleration and development, particularly standards relating to electricity metering and related information exchange.
