Creating and pricing new products and services in response to technological change and customer preference is critical. Preparing our workforce and ensuring key positions are filled with creative and highly-capable employees is equally important.<\/p>\n<h3>Keep the Lights On<\/h3>\n<p>Even as we look to the future, we must continue to provide the reliable and affordable products and services our customers have come to depend upon. Some of us work directly with customers to ensure the lights come on when they flip the switch. Others of us support those who do. We all have a crucial role to play in meeting our customers\u2019 current needs.<\/p>\n<h3>Keep Our Customers Close<\/h3>\n<p>Success starts with understanding what our customers want and need; after all, connecting our customers to their energy future is about bringing their preferences to light! Education, outreach, and dialogue are all necessary as we look to a future in which customers have considerably more choices. Flexible and multi-faceted communication strategies are essential to serving the changing demographic of Central Lincoln\u2019s customer population.<\/p>\n<h3>All Systems Go!<\/h3>\n<p>Delivering quality products and services requires policies, procedures, and work practices that are efficient in design, consistently applied, and customer-focused. Learning how to get the most from our NISC investment will position us to tackle industry changes successfully. Our internal support groups are focused on this important work.<\/p>\n<h3>Know Our Numbers<\/h3>\n<p>Success requires measuring our performance relative to past results and industry standards. Benchmarking is an important tool for celebrating excellence and understanding areas of opportunity. Our challenge is to create a culture that is curious, accountable, and aspirational.<\/p>\n<h3>Be a Fast Follower<\/h3>\n<p>As a public utility, we don\u2019t aspire to be an early adopter, but we don\u2019t want to be late to the game. Fast followers allocate the necessary resources to track and implement appropriate technology for the benefit of our customer-owners. We are known as a progressive utility and we will maintain that reputation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Mission To ensure our communities have access to reliable and affordable energy products and services.
