ThemesThe following themes were used to discuss performance and productivity at GPA:
Theme Description
Strategy The ability to set, drive and measure execution against strategy throughout the organization.
People Increasing the level of accountability of all employees and developing the skills needed to deliver against targets.
Process Identifying and managing core processes against appropriate targets with the ability to analyze and improve.
Technology & infrastructure
Establishing the right technology and infrastructure enabling the right information to support strategies, people and processes.
Phase 2 executive summary
1-4
Results - GPA performance strengthsTheme Performance points
Strategy › Ability to meet and address critical regulatory requirements› Considering outsourcing of non-core, variable effort functions
such as vegetation management› PMC program has improved generation management and
performance› CCU role and governance has evolved since inception
People › Development of the Certified, Technical and Professional (CTP) program and definitions of position requirements
› Successful implementation of the apprenticeship program to address workforce gaps
› Staff does what it takes to get the job doneProcess › Improved generation performance
› Overall significant reduction in overtime over last 6 years› Improved analyst ratings› Payroll process has gained efficiencies through direct deposit
initiativeTechnology & Infrastructure
› Improved infrastructure built to weather storms› IT user security and desktop support is sound› Management of the IT network is good
Phase 2 executive summary
1-5
Improvement theme
Corporate Governance
Strategy Planning & Execution Financial Strength Customer Service Operations
Strategy • Formal strategy not communicated and driven across business units or through employee levels
People • Training gap – specifically in usage of information systems and technology• Lack of accountability through performance measures
• Limited succession plan • Limited workforce planning
• Without a comprehensive set of the metrics, staff may not be focused on the right actions to drive customer satisfaction
• Inability to keep up with work backlog
• Open manager position• Inefficient crews (crew sizes
can be reduced)
• Unbalanced span of control
• Performance not linked to strategies
Process • Few KPIs or metrics managed or tracked for improvement• Lack of communication between departments
• Lack of goal setting• Lack of management
evaluations by CCU
• Identified strategies were not executed nor integrated across the utility
• Process metrics not adequately linked to strategies
• Inefficient processes:o Budgetingo Reporting and
forecastingo Close the bookso Payroll
• Meter repairs and MV90 reading in T&D, not customer service
• Dissatisfied customers• Inefficient disconnect /
reconnect process
• Low electric system reliability• Inadequate procurement
process relative to needs• Inefficient maintenance process• Inadequate distribution planning
guidelines
Technology & Infrastructure
• Not using reporting abilities to monitor health of GPA
• System utilization is sub-optimized to support strategies
• Inadequate training on JDE
• High number of system work-arounds
• Poor utilization of Utiligy
• Inadequate field technology
• Inadequate field technology• Economic Dispatch Model
improvements
Results - GPA performance impacting issues
Phase 2 executive summary

Results - GPA productivity› GPA requires more staff than expected (based on comparable mainland
utilities) to deliver and manage energy for its customers.

Results - GPA productivityDetermination of appropriate generation staffing level was inconclusive based upon the following facts:›Staffing at mainland utilities was highly correlated with demand attributes such as total production (MWh) and peak demand (MW);›GPA maintains significantly more capacity compared to its demand than surveyed utilities;
–The number of generating units (25) maintained and operated by GPA is almost 80% higher than the next highest surveyed utility (14);–GPA’s ratio of capacity to peak demand is 13% higher than the next highest surveyed utility;
›If the current capacity levels and generation units are determined to be appropriate based on GPA’s unique position as an isolated power provider, it is possible that that the staffing levels are reasonable, though a more detailed, work unit based staffing analysis would need to occur to conclude accurately on the staffing level.
Phase 2 executive summary
1-8
RecommendationsStaffing changes›GPA’s staffing level is close to what would be expected›Higher productivity can lead to less staff (per equivalent output). By increasing productivity, GPA can utilize its capacity to ramp up for expected future demand›The following roadmap, based on our assessment, will guide the utility toward improved efficiency and effectiveness, however resources will be needed to implement the recommendations›We recommend a slow reduction in staff over a couple of years where, when attrition occurs, staffing changes are made›Hiring of key positions, such as the IT manager and Generation manager should not be delayed›Workforce planning and succession planning efforts, when implemented, will aid the organization in identification of required skills and positions for the future

Phase 2 executive summary
Roadmap for implementation› The following slides provide a guide or roadmap for implementation. The
48 identified initiatives are organized into four “waves” over the next three years.
› Priority and impact on the organization was evaluated and the initiatives were sequenced based on importance, dependencies between initiatives and time to implement.
› The order of initiatives in the proposed waves gives priority to initiatives with strategic importance first such that the necessary infrastructure is in place to enable effective operations and enhancement in the overall performance of the organization. The filling of essential positions was also given priority, as these key leadership positions are critical policy and operations leaders. Improving the focus on the ratepayer was also determined important.
› Gantt charts present waves with suggested timetable for initiatives’implementation.
› It is recommended that GPA review the initiatives and prioritize the recommendations based on available financial and personnel resources.

RecommendationsManagement support for change›Management recommendations have been introduced and executed in the past with varying success.
– 2006 Renoir study identified some similar issues and recommendations. Our team did not find evidence of initiatives to address many of these issues
– 2007 IT strategic plan recommendations not implemented.›Given the scope and potential impact of the proposed roadmap, it is imperative that the executive management team devote required focus to strategic initiatives and less on day-to-day issues that will distract them from achieving strategic goals.
Phase 2 executive summary

How do you effectively manage through the roadmap at GPA?
›Prepare organization to take on initiatives– Engage leaders in the process and provide forum and
environment for input– Evaluate the initiatives, prioritize and customize the roadmap to
meet GPA’s needs›Prepare people to succeed
– Identify leaders with the right skills, motivation and capabilities to lead and build capacity in workforce to meet new demands on top of day to day tasks
– Motivate staff to build and operate in new environment– Develop clear and common vision across organization– Clearly define and communicate new job roles, responsibilities
and expected behaviors
Phase 2 executive summary
1-31
› Identify existing cost and benefit data
› Prepare high level work plan including identification of needed resources
› Finalize data collection plan› Conduct project kick-off› Conduct workshops
› Identify and measure process improvement opportunities
› Build financial model› Assess change readiness
› Conduct process design meetings including identifying the gaps between current state and future state
› Update findings documentation› Iterate financial model› Sign off on findings
documentation
› Develop business case presentation based on data request responses and on-site visits and interviews
› Present business case› Prepare implementation plan› Manage change
For each chosen initiative, GPA should employ a standard process for managing the scope, workplan, design and implementation. The process below is a high level structure which should assist GPA in implementation.

Some uncertainty exists as to whether IFS is the appropriate tool for Loram.
“With the management change this year comes different priorities. What may have been a priority to one executive may not be as important for another. We have already had team decisions questioned by upper management and I wonder if they really understand the scope of the changes that are being proposed by this team.”
