Nuclear Engineering REORGANIZATION OBJECTIVES A.

Improve Site Engineering Effectiveness Consistent focus on proactive problem identification and resolution Consistent expectations Consistent processes - no hidden backlog Establish clear accountabilities Minimize handoffs Improve communications and teamwork Improve responsiveness to plant needs B.

Improve Efficiency of Site Engineering Support Eliminate duplication and redundancy Improve utilization of site technical resources CP&L

Nuclear Engineering MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS/STRENGTHS Filling of Key Management Positions Site Support/Responsiveness Technical Quality of Major Projects CP&L

Nuclear Engineering OPPORTUNITIES FOR IMPROVEMENT Backlog Reduction Proactive Problem Identification Self-Assessment Attention to Detail Consistent Expectations CP&L

Nuclear Engineering ASSESSMENT AND FEEDBACK RESULTS FOR HARRIS A.

Strengths Recent designs have been user-friendly to Operations.

Technical quality and planning of major projects Communication among Engineering, Operations, Maintenance, and Craft Outage teamwork, especially planning, field engineering, and design support of maintenance activities.

Engineering has a major role in all significant outage activities.

0 Nuclear Engineering ASSESSMENT AND FEEDBACK RESULTS FOR HARRIS (Continued)

B.

Challenges Improve proactive identification and resolution of problems.

Improve planning and prioritization of plant improvements.

Improve self-assessment of engineering activities.

Improve attention to detail issues for modification packages.

Strengthen engineer systems training beyond assigned job scope.

Reduce "handoffs" necessary to accomplish engineering work. Outage support has demonstrated success of site-based engineering with fewer "handoffs."

Improve flexibility of personnel.
