SIMPLIFYING REGULATORY COMPLEXITY

Simplifying complexity around NERC regulation is a strong competitive advantage for your company. Understanding nuances of regulatory requirements allows you to focus on the strategic objectives that truly matter and drive sustainability of your organization.

“The simpler we can make things, the more understanding and beliefs our teams will have which will help improve their efficiency and effectiveness which generate better results.” - Gordon Tredgold

“I’m very pleased to recommend Earl Shockley as a consultant. I have worked closely with Earl for the past fourteen months on several important NERC Operations projects.
