Story
WEC Energy is based in the United States and runs utilities operations at a scale where log investigation cannot live in side channels. On-call engineers were reconciling competing copies of the same work, which slowed incident response and hid who owned the next step.
The company runs incident response on Splunk, with Splunk Cloud as the product on-call engineers actually open. Splunk (a Cisco company) is a data platform for security and observability, used to search machine data and investigate incidents. For WEC Energy, that means on-call engineers can open one workflow, see log investigation, and let neighboring teams join without inventing a parallel stack.
Public materials confirm the companies and products. They do not always publish a single verified KPI for this pairing, so the outcome here is operational: clearer ownership, fewer stalled handoffs, and a shared record for log investigation.
