FORT WORTH, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, August 8, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD) has selected Certrec, a leading provider of regulatory compliance and advanced Software as a Service (SaaS) applications for the energy industry, to provide its Fatigue Rule Management System (FRMS) for Cooper Nuclear Station (CNS).

“With the addition of Cooper Nuclear Station, almost 20 percent of the commercial nuclear fleet has modernized their fatigue compliance with our FRMS—and in just three and a half years since it was first released,” says Ted Enos, CEO of Certrec.

“FRMS represents a new way to collaborate and save resources by utilization of a single industry-wide solution as opposed to legacy LAN systems deployed on an individual basis. Everyone is on the same and most up-to-date version of the solution at all times. It is easy to use, fast, accurate, and saves licensees money and risk. We are very proud of the innovation our employees have achieved,” says Michelle Thomas, Executive Director of Operations for Certrec.

Certrec’s FRMS is an industry-changing solution developed in cooperation with fatigue rule experts that gives clients significant time and money savings and assists in reducing violations. Among other things, Certrec hosts an annual users’ conference where all the users come together to discuss the application and decide on future improvements. Four years ago, a major nuclear industry fleet asked Certrec to develop a new fatigue management application to address the problems with their existing solution. With Cooper Nuclear Station adopting FRMS, this is another major achievement in making the platform the gold standard for ensuring compliance with the NRC’s 10 CFR Part 26 fatigue rule requirements.

Other methods used to track compliance with the NRC’s fatigue rule are slow, unreliable, and often provide inaccurate information. Developed in cooperation with fatigue rule experts, FRMS was designed with the needs of plant managers in mind. Some of the time and cost-saving functionalities of FRMS include

• user-friendly interface that allows users to come up to speed very quickly.
• web-based functions accomplished in seconds not hours.
• cross-station resource sharing.
• calculations in real time.
• accessible anywhere with internet access.
• accurate reports computed in seconds.
• scheduling controls to prevent violations.
• quick determination of worker availability.
