The Procurement Engineering section is directly responsible for all processes which assure the continued supply of qualified and reliable components and parts for a large two-unit reactor power plant. This group analyzes replacement and substitute component/part requirements and, shares design authority for plant configuration changes. This section is also responsible for the analysis, qualification and control of electrical components that may be subjected to harsh environmental conditions (heat, humidity, radiation, seismic activity, etc.) while in service. Directly control annual budgets up to $ 7M with a reporting staff of up to 50 people. This group analyzed replacement and substitute component/part requirements and, shared design authority for plant configuration changes. Converted previous engineering processes to support the requirements of NRC Generic Letter 91-05, including the design, construction and startup of an extensive testing laboratory (10,000 sq. ft. facility). This Generic Letter effectively mandated 100% verification of component and piece part safety functions. Directly controlled annual budgets up to $5M with a reporting staff of up to 50 people.
