• Review Work Order Closure and assist in development of Root Cause/ Common Cause and Failure Mode analyses to review and analyze work quality, performance, reasons for component failure and equipment asset condition.
• Plan clearance, tagging, and permit requirements for work orders to improve safety and facilitate the clearance at tag-out process.
• Review and construct, as needed, Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support PM and other recurring work orders and surveillances to ensure configuration control.
• Coordinate with Operations’ work control to include required elements of work events currently underway in the plant to ensure work packages incorporate all required elements.
• Develop plans to minimize backlog and maintain reliability to ensure operational readiness.

• Oversee Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support work planners in the development, assembly, and review of Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support-based work orders to be scheduled for plant work to ensure all work order requirements are met.
• Implement work order requirements into daily work planning to ensure the activities are being executed.
• Review and verify contents of Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support work package templates, including permits, training and qualification for specific work requirements, discipline requirements, Parts and Bills of Material (BoM), Safety-Related components, quality levels, component relationships and integration with other related work orders to minimize delays associated with incomplete or incorrect work packages.
• Identify and assess configuration management, document, and engineering errors identified during work planning to prevent errors from impacting work quality.
• Review the development of parts lists and BoM to create Material Requests, and understand the requisition process, time constraints, and supply chain requirements for non-stock parts to increase the accuracy and availability of work package materials.
• Review the availability and checkout process for Measuring and Test Equipment (M&TE) equipment for surveillance, alignment, and calibration work to ensure the work packages adequately provide for obtaining that equipment.
• Review the Make/ Model of installed components and work with KHNP and vendors when recommending replacements to increase the adequacy of replacements.

• Validate that training and qualification credential requirements for Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support maintenance staff match appropriate resources to the work being executed to ensure alignment.
• Identify requisite maintenance staff qualifications, skills, training, and availability to create work order packages to properly staff.
• Coordinate with Outage and Online Work Managers for inclusion in scheduling or additional outage planning (scheduled, forced, contingent and plant modification) to support outage personnel requirements.

• Check and follow vendor manuals (VM’s), warranty documents, and other external documents and data in the development of work plans and work order media to better understand materials and documentation requirements for work.
• Manage ongoing vendor-based Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support work in the plant, to include work associated with plant modification packages specifically identified as Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support-based, to improve the quality and efficiency of vendor work.
• Review and participate in managing site access requirements for specialized vendor computers and M&TE devices to be utilized for Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support work to facilitate vendor effectiveness.

• Assist in the execution of PM requirements to ensure effectiveness of the plant PM program.
• Review and develop pre-planned maintenance requirements, in coordination with Operations Work Control (including warranty, surveillance, rework, etc.) for plant mode, LCO’s and technical specification(s) in force to speed planning activities when these conditions are encountered.
• Consult with Design Engineering and vendors, as needed, to assist in development or change of PM’s to take advantage of up-to-date information.
• Coordinate with engineering in the development of work plans (“Model Work Orders”) to ensure work plans are appropriate to the maintenance requirements in the Plant.
• Verify compliance with tech spec intervals and work frequencies and report documentation errors to ensure compliance with industrial requirements.
• Lead PM activities to maintain high self-identification ratios.

• Lead Electrical/ Mechanical/ I&C/ Support Maintenance organization on conditional reporting and observations to raise awareness.
• Participate in assessing and recommending Maintenance Software Use and Training (OMS, eSOMS, P6, RIMS/Phoenix, eWP, etc.).
• Coordinate with the Industry and Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) resources for WM and the nuclear arts, including Institute of Nuclear Power Operations (INPO), Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), World Association of Nuclear Operators (WANO), International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), etc., to understand and apply industry standards and best practices to work planning.
