2012 Project Prioritization
–
Introductory Comments
•
ERCOT is working diligently to limit the 2012 budget to the most
critical needs
•
$15M has been allocated for capital projects
•
Is $15M sufficient for ERCOT’s capital project needs?
–
Answer: Yes
–
Due to the recent Data Center Hardware project, 2012 is expected to
have a more labor
-
intensive project mix than usual
–
Supporting information:
•
2012
–
total project labor estimate = 108,000 hours
•
2011
–
YTD internal PPL project labor = $2.31M (~35,500 hours)
•
2010
–
total internal PPL project labor = $2.73M (~42,000 hours)
•
2009
–
total internal PPL project labor = $3.96M (~61,000 hours)

ERCOT will manage within the projected $15M project funding allocation.
As active projects move through the project lifecycle and new projects are
considered for initiation, they will be reassessed for criticality, cost/benefit
and resource availability against other projects in the portfolio.
Inclusion on the preliminary 2012 PPL does not guarantee funding!
