Committee Strategic Alignment – Implementation

Goal DeliverableThe Board of Directors will identify and assign strategic goals to its sub-committees to provide consistency and alignment to the ERCOT strategic plan. TAC will ensure alignment to these goals down through the ERCOT committee structure.

• Subcommittees will submit goals to Board for review and consideration by February, 2014.

ERCOT staff will work with Sponsors of Revision Requests to categorize them as either Operational, Strategic, Efficiency, Administrative, or Regulatory.

• Update the Nodal Protocol Revision Request to reflect categories.

Greater involvement of ERCOT executive staff, in partnership with TAC, will maintain a high level focus on the strategic direction of the market and potential impacts to the ERCOT organization.

• Executive assignment to TAC supported by Director and Manager level assignment to supporting subcommittees (see next slide for details).

The Sponsor will be responsible to complete the benefits portion (quantitative and qualitative) of the Revision Request. ERCOT will comment on reasonableness of approach, assumptions and methodology to develop Benefits from either CBA or Business Case.

• Modify the Nodal Protocol Revision Request to better delineate qualitative and quantitative benefits and provided area to identify market segments/stakeholders impacted by change.

The Board of Directors, through the periodic budget review process will ensure alignment of sub-group efforts with the overall strategic direction of ERCOT.

Improve strategic alignment among the ERCOT Board of Directors, ERCOT organization and ERCOT stakeholders by a Board annual review process of subcommittees, setting of annual

strategic goals, greater participation of ERCOT Executives, and an enhanced process to evaluate proposed market rule revisions.
