Ft. Worth, TX (PRWEB) May 03, 2011 — Certrec, a leading regulatory licensing and compliance solutions provider, introduces The Office of NERC Compliance (ONC) – the utility industry’s first, comprehensive NERC compliance, audit, and monitoring solution for Registered Entities.
From NERC compliance appraisal to process documentation, from audit preparation and negotiation through project management, the Office of NERC Compliance helps Registered Entities to:
- Confidently evaluate the state of NERC compliance across their organization
- Efficiently prepare for NERC audits
- Effectively communicate with regulators during audits
- Keep up to date with changing standards, rulings, policies, and audit findings
- Efficiently manage and track compliance conditions and field projects
- Manage the entire NERC compliance process in near-real time through a single, online hosted solution that is accessible to everyone no matter location or device (email, laptop, smart phone, or iPad)
“Not only is NERC compliance new for utilities, it is often ambiguous and complex,” says Bob Biggs, Manager of NERC Compliance for Certrec. ”Not only do NERC standards often not align with utility operating practices, they demand comprehensive procedure documentation, regular compliance monitoring and tracking, and active employee training. This is a stiff challenge for many utilities coping with a loss of tribal knowledge, decreasing budgets, and inefficient work processes,” notes Biggs.
Staffed by NERC compliance experts with more than 250 cumulative years of regulatory compliance and audit experience, Certrec’s Office of NERC Compliance (ONC) helps compliance managers:
- Manage the Impact of the NERC Regulatory Process
- Manage Communication with Multiple Regulators
