The scope of these activities includes both agency-wide efforts intended to address cross-cutting aspects of culture, innovation, technology, and staff development, as well as elements driven at the office-level focused on reactor licensing, oversight, and rulemaking. Though they vary in objective, the common themes that motivate the transformation activities are: (1) gaining efficiencies in our processes such that more time can be devoted to matters of greatest importance to the agency’s mission, (2) enhancing agility to manage evolving workloads and responding adeptly to emerging technology trends in the nuclear energy sector, (3) developing a workforce that has the appropriate skills and tools to meet the mission needs, and (4) using new approaches to data analytics to inform our decision-making. Staff will provide an overview of the transformation, an update of the most recent activities, and identify ways in which the agency will engage with licensees and other stakeholders throughout the transformation process.
