50% of the current energy utility workforce will retire within the next 10 years.

Many utilities face the challenge of skillset and knowledge attrition due to retirement of maintenance personnel, seasoned engineers, craft and technical employees, along with increasing turnover of newer employees.

Maintaining expertise within the maintenance and engineering organizations can be difficult, resulting in inefficient component maintenance, diminished ability to identify potential risks, inefficient analysis times, and uncertain decision making at utility sites.
