Lagoon Creek Combined Cycle Plant’s Organizational Effectiveness

The Office of the Inspector General conducted an evaluation of Lagoon Creek Combined Cycle Plant (LCCC) to identify strengths and risks that could impact LCCC’s organizational effectiveness. Our evaluation identified strengths related to(1) teamwork, (2) a supportive plant manager, and (3) organizational alignment. However, we also identified issues that could pose risks to LCCC’s effectiveness and its continued ability to meet its responsibilities. Specifically, some employees expressed concerns related to expired certifications because of lack of training to maintain those certifications, and their lack of in-depth knowledge regarding the operating systems at LCCC. In addition, several employees stated that communication could be improved to better share information across groups.
