operations working group mission and scope
The Operations Working Group (OWG) focuses EFCOG resources on the diverse set of challenges that operating projects face across the DOE/NNSA enterprise. In addition to two Subgroups previously housed under the Safety Working Group (Nuclear & Facility Safety and Engineering Practices), the OWG has established two new Subgroups (Disciplined Operations and Operational Human Capital) and two Working Group-level Task Teams (Fit for Purpose Working Planning & Control and Graded Approach). These initial, but not all-encompassing, OWG organizations are focused on the highest priority operational challenges identified by senior federal, laboratory, and contractor operations managers.
