201905 SERC Transmission

TheAlign Project is the end product of strategic efforts that began in 2014. Formerly known as the Compliance Monitoring and Enforcement Program (CMEP) Technology Project, its goal was to improve and standardize processes across the ERO Enterprise. As the ERO Enterprise evolves in using a risk-based approach in regulatory activities, the development of a more comprehensive system to manage and analyze information is crucial. Its goals are to improve documentation, sharing, and analysis of compliance work activities; enable consistent application of the CMEP; and make CMEP activities more efficient and effective across the ERO Enterprise. The project team is finalizing the construction and testing of Release 1, and getting ready to train the ERO Enterprise during the summer of 2019. See Release 1-Functionality andAlign FAQs for additional information. Regional Entity Training Align tool training is scheduled for Regional Entity (RE) staff onAugust 6 and 7, 2019. The RE staff training will be a two- day in-person training class, held in SERC’s offices in Charlotte, North Carolina. For those not able to attend this session, a list of training dates across the ERO Enterprise is posted on the NERC website.
