Who Should Attend:
Engineering and operations employees who want a better understanding of the work order process.
Webinar Overview:
For your ratepayers/consumers/members, price/cost and reliability are most important. Therefore, keeping rates as low as possible is the desired outcome of attending this final session of the Understanding the Work Order System Series. You will look at how much it costs to provide reliable power, and discuss the impact of decisions, such as completing a timesheet and using materials, on the overall cost of providing service. Given the decisions you make day in and day out, how much of an impact do you have on the cost? This session is a great finale for every employee of the utility.
(Note that the Understanding the Work Order System Series is comprised of eight webinars from March through October 2024. Webinars can be taken individually or as an entire series; by registering for the full series, you will receive all eight webinars at a discounted price.)
Webinar Objectives:
Understand the impact of maintenance and capital charges in determining base monthly rates.
Understand the significance of operations and engineering decisions.
Create collaboration so engineering and operations staff can save future, project, and ratepayer costs.
Webinar Recordings:
Webinar recordings can be made available to registrants who are unable to attend live.
Webinar Instructor:
Teri Wallis, Founder, Terilyn Wallis Consulting
