CMBG Mission

“To provide a forum for the exchange of information which is useful to practitioners of nuclear facility configuration management and to act as the CM Community of Practice for the nuclear industry.


CMBG2005

Community of Practice

– A Community of Practice (CoP) is an industry peer group of experts in a process or sub-process defined in NEI’s Standard Nuclear Performance Model. The group serves as the owner of that particular process or sub-process, managing the solution of issues for the industry in that area. NEI assesses CoP development based on six attributes: formation of a leadership team, a charter, cost definitions, process descriptions, definitions of performance indicators and performance improvement projects.


CMBG2005

Industry CM Issues

• Margin Management

• Fuel Performance

• Performance Indicators

• New NRC Engineering Inspections

• IT cost/benefit

• Process Orientation

• Eastern European plants and risk


CMBG2005

Current Initiatives

• Planning for 2006 CMBG conference (June) in Richmond hosted by Dominion Energy.

• Integrate CM/IM/IT Processes and resolve interface conflicts.

• Complete revision to INPO AP-929 using CM Process model that agrees with NEI Standard Nuclear Performance Model

• Pilot program to make CM performance indicators “workable and visible”

Project Motivation

• CMBG 2001 Participants wanted focus on ANSI/NIRMA CM 1.0-2000 concepts and terminology

• ANSI standard addresses “Objectives” and program elements

• Worked with NEI on SNPM

• Now working with INPO on AP-929

The CM Objectives


CMBG2005

CM Process Model• High level model

• integrated processes used to return to CM ‘objective’ when change occurs.

• developed in early 2002 by CMBG task force.• influenced content of industry guidance

documents:• NEI Standard Nuclear Performance Model • INPO Operation Excellence Outcomes

enablers• used by CMBG to develop CM Performance

Indicators• AP-929 further details this model
