“We provide energy for the 10 million people who live in New York City and Westchester County. That comes with a great responsibility, so risk mitigation is really important. This is why we have our entire infrastructure— all of our drawings— stored in the Adept system. The end goal here is not only to make sure that we're in compliance with NERC and CIP regulations, but anything that can help us improve reliability.”
