HOW’S SEMS GOING? First Round of Audits completed in November

2013 84 Operators audited BSEE: “Undesirable variation in quality of audit

reports” Most audits were non-compliance checks…not

management assessments Improvements needed for Second Round

Qualitative Assessments Assess Effectiveness; highlight Best Practices Need performance measures; leading & lagging indicators Increase dialogue between Audit report and CAP approval

SEMS III?Contractor Management (Contactor SEMS?)

BSEE Director sees disconnect between Operator and Contractors

Room for standardization of what Contractors provide Operators
