    11. High Impact/Project Review Teams – Contingency Planning Contingency Planning is the most important part of the HIT and PRT Contingency Plans are developed and planned to ensure successful outage performance. High, Med and Low probability of occurrence, affect on outage duration and cost are the major factors Contingency Plans are formally documented and are part of training the Outage execution team receives prior to the outage Explain Contingency Plan for Turbine/Generator HITContingency Planning is the most important part of the HIT and PRT Contingency Plans are developed and planned to ensure successful outage performance.

    12. High Impact/Project Review Teams Project Reviews/Contingency plans are available in the OCC during outage execution. Specific Reviews are conducted during outage execution to ensure they are tracking as planned. Contingency plans are implemented if necessary and Problem Resolution Teams are utilized. Highlight reviews conducted during each shift of the outage to ensure the project team is on track Problem Resolution team is a multidiscipline team of Engineers and Maintenance that help solve problems and implement contingencies that would otherwise distract the Shift Outage Managers from driving the outageHighlight reviews conducted during each shift of the outage to ensure the project team is on track Problem Resolution team is a multidiscipline team of Engineers and Maintenance that help solve problems and implement contingencies that would otherwise distract the Shift Outage Managers from driving the outage

    13. Pre-outage Milestones 47 Pre-outage Milestones, examples include: Pre-Outage milestones based on best industry practices Adherence is essential for successful refueling outage preparation and execution Outage Manager determines successful completion of milestones Outage Manager coordinates actions to ensure milestone requirements are known Milestones are graded using green for milestone met, yellow for improvement needed on meeting the milestone and red for a significant weakness in meeting the milestone Milestone durations set in months prior to the outage and assigned a specific Manager as the owner Highlight Work Package PreparationPre-Outage milestones based on best industry practices Adherence is essential for successful refueling outage preparation and execution Outage Manager determines successful completion of milestones Outage Manager coordinates actions to ensure milestone requirements are known Milestones are graded using green for milestone met, yellow for improvement needed on meeting the milestone and red for a significant weakness in meeting the milestone Milestone durations set in months prior to the outage and assigned a specific Manager as the owner Highlight Work Package Preparation

Pre-outage and Outage Milestones Graph of Work Package Preparation Discussed weekly at the Outage Meeting Work down curves generated to ensure the milestone is on trackGraph of Work Package Preparation Discussed weekly at the Outage Meeting Work down curves generated to ensure the milestone is on track

    15. Pre-outage and Outage Milestones Scope stability is milestone that is continually tracked until day 1 of the outage to ensure that outage goals are not met by discarding major outage workScope stability is milestone that is continually tracked until day 1 of the outage to ensure that outage goals are not met by discarding major outage work

    16. Outage Goals Outage goals for the 12 refueling outage on Unit 1 Milestones and HIT’s are designed around the outage goals Outage Goals are selected to be both challenging and realisticOutage goals for the 12 refueling outage on Unit 1 Milestones and HIT’s are designed around the outage goals Outage Goals are selected to be both challenging and realistic

Outage Milestones Once the outage start specific milestones are targets to ensure that overall outage goal for duration is met Slide shows a sampling of outage milestones that are tracked by the Shift Outage Mgrs and Outage Manager Milestones include critical path to complete the outage durationOnce the outage start specific milestones are targets to ensure that overall outage goal for duration is met Slide shows a sampling of outage milestones that are tracked by the Shift Outage Mgrs and Outage Manager Milestones include critical path to complete the outage duration

    18. Pre-outage and Outage Assessments The highest number of red pre-outage milestones were recorded for Braidwood Station for A1R11. This resulted in cascading pre-outage milestones not meeting their due dates. This resulted in a Common Cause Assessment (CCA) being done. Improvements were needed after the 10th and 11th refueling outages at Braidwood Red milestones (I.e significant weakness existed to achieving the preoutage milestone) existed Common Cause Assessment done to find the cause and direct corrective actionsImprovements were needed after the 10th and 11th refueling outages at Braidwood Red milestones (I.e significant weakness existed to achieving the preoutage milestone) existed Common Cause Assessment done to find the cause and direct corrective actions

    19. Pre-outage and Outage Assessments Corrective Actions as a result of the CCA have been implemented: All Owners will meet quarterly under the Outage Manager to discuss expectations and any issues Owners are to meet with the Outage Manager starting one month prior to their window to discuss status/expectations Milestones in deviance or at risk require owners to meeting weekly to discuss status Milestones in deviance will require the milestone owner to report out daily to Senior Management Will require a completed recovery plan with actions to all successor milestones Corrective actions included assigning milestone owners to meet with Outage Manger, report to Sr. Management and develop recovery plans for each milestone in varianceCorrective actions included assigning milestone owners to meet with Outage Manger, report to Sr. Management and develop recovery plans for each milestone in variance

    20. Pre-outage and Outage Assessments Additional Outage Manager’s Expectations Accountability for owners is included in their annual evaluations Milestones are included in outage issues database for discussion at outage meeting Discuss with their peers for feedback in future procedure revisions Successful results followed implementation of Expectations A1R12 – 0 red milestones A2R12 – 0 red milestones Additional expectations were set forth by the Outage Manager to ensure success including inclusion of milestones in performance reviews Since inclusion of these corrective actions there have been zero red milestones (I.e milestones that show significant weakness to meet)Additional expectations were set forth by the Outage Manager to ensure success including inclusion of milestones in performance reviews Since inclusion of these corrective actions there have been zero red milestones (I.e milestones that show significant weakness to meet)

    21. Pre-outage and Outage Assessments Outage Self Assessment (FASA) Review of outage readiness is performed by a multi-disciplined team of peers prior to an outage Methodology The team reviews Each departments readiness using pre-outage indicators Schedules Action items Technical human performance Attend outage related meetings Conduct interviews of High Impact Teams to obtain status To ensure the site is ready both in outage preparation and execution and self assessment is done two month prior to each outage Multidiscipline team form Exelon Team reviews outage and preoutage milestones and interviews and participates in project reviews to determine project statusTo ensure the site is ready both in outage preparation and execution and self assessment is done two month prior to each outage Multidiscipline team form Exelon Team reviews outage and preoutage milestones and interviews and participates in project reviews to determine project status

    22. Pre-outage and Outage Assessments Outage Self Assessment (FASA), continued… A final Outage Self Assessment document is presented to Station Senior Management upon their exit. Final assessment is presented to Station Senior Management to gauge the sites readiness to execute the upcoming refueling outage Corrective actions developed and executed prior to the refueling outage These actions together ensure the sites ability to effectively plan, prepare and execute the refueling outageFinal assessment is presented to Station Senior Management to gauge the sites readiness to execute the upcoming refueling outage Corrective actions developed and executed prior to the refueling outage These actions together ensure the sites ability to effectively plan, prepare and execute the refueling outage
