Numbers the regulator will accept.
Earned value, scheduling and cost control for utility control centers, substations and transmission programs. We give utilities performance reporting that stands up in a rate case and in the boardroom.
What is really at risk.
Regulators read the numbers
Utility programs report to state commissions. Cost and schedule data has to be traceable, consistent and defensible.
Outages are granted by others
Clearances come from system operators and can move with load and weather. The plan has to flex without losing control.
Equipment outlasts the plan
Transformers, breakers and relay panels can take longer to arrive than the work takes. Procurement often decides the date.
Where we add control.
- 01
Grid control centers
Mission-critical operations buildings with systems cutovers and redundancy testing.
- 02
Substations
New yards and rebuilds delivered bay by bay inside outage windows.
- 03
Transmission and distribution lines
Linear programs with permitting, right-of-way and outage dependencies.
- 04
Grid modernization programs
Multi-year portfolios reported to regulators and leadership.
How we control it here.
The KonradBeck capabilities owners in this market call on most.
A performance baseline with CPI, SPI and variance analysis the utility can show its regulator.
Cost forecasts and EAC by work order and program, reconciled every month.
Long-lead power equipment tracked from factory test to delivery, tied to outage dates.
Portfolio reporting across substations, lines and facilities as one program.
A $175M program, reported to a regulator.
A utility was building a grid control center and a substation program under the eye of a state regulator. We set up earned value and cost control across the program, with monthly CPI, SPI and variance reports traced to the source data. Leadership and the regulator worked from the same numbers.

Questions owners ask us.
Can your reporting support a rate case?
We build cost and performance data to be traceable and consistent, which is what regulatory review depends on. Legal strategy stays with your counsel.
How do you handle outage windows that move?
Outages are loaded as constrained activities with alternates, so when a clearance shifts we can show the effect and the options the same day.
Do you need to replace our systems?
No. We work with your existing scheduling and financial systems and connect them through reporting, so the data stays where your teams already use it.
See your power & utilities program clearly.
Share the program, the budget and the date that matters. A senior KonradBeck controls lead will come back to you within one business day.
