Whats The Concern?

z Individual unit performance z Fleet performance z Fleet functional area opportunities z Missing top quartile benchmarks A transformation is needed in order to develop and sustain a top quartile performing fleet again 13

Fleet Nuclear Operations Model z Fleet standardization model. Through standardization comes efficiency and consistency. Standardize at industry best practices.

Governance Oversight Support Perform z Immediate Focus Areas Common Conduct of Operations for each functional area Fleet Alignment Manual Change Management Plan 14

New Model z Action Team Mission:
