ELECTRI International`s Annual Report 2012
Energy. Ideas. Action. 2012 Report to Stakeholders Energy. Ideas. Energy. Ideas. Action. Our contractors show a great deal of innovation and desire to improve. But we know good ideas and great energy will sit on a shelf without action. That’s where our ELECTRI Council shines. Darrell Gossett Chairman, ELECTRI Council Action. Energy. When I think about everything that ELECTRI International has done to propel our industry forward, I associate it with Every day, we hear about the importance of energy. From the food we eat, to the cars we drive, to the ways we communicate… every message is energy-driven. We need it. We want it. We can’t do without it. Those of us fortunate enough to be involved with electrical construction understand how different our world has become since we learned how to harness and use every possible energy source. And we’re still learning. When I think about everything that ELECTRI International has done to propel our industry forward, I associate it with “energy”. ELECTRI is the major force of people coming together through our Foundation to energize our common interests. n Our ELECTRI Council members demonstrate their extraordinary energy and focus when it comes to selecting our research agenda and working to make sure that each commissioned project meets its obligations and fulfills our expectations. n Our seasoned researchers and the young faculty members who analyze each project idea and come up with the best possible approach to our research requirements are each filled with academic inquisitiveness and energy. n Our NECA Chapters bring the energy of ELECTRI’s programs and projects back to all of their members, through discussions, workshops with the researchers, and by staying involved in every aspect of our work. n Our ELECTRI Board of Trustees and our ELECTRI Committees prove their energetic commitment to ELECTRI in many ways. Their guidance and stewardship throughout the year are essential and we salute them for their work. n Our enthusiastic – and very smart - NECA Student Chapters remind us of the energy we had when we were at the start of our careers. Their dedication to service, volunteering, and learning gives me the confidence that we will be leaving our industry in very capable hands. My personal thanks to every industry member who contributes to ELECTRI’s growth and its energy. Our work is by no means complete. But I know we have the energy to keep going and I am proud to be part of this important initiative. Sincerely, Dennis F. Quebe Chairman, Board of Trustees ELECTRI International 1 ELECTRI International prides itself on its continuous efforts to grow and to serve the electrical construction industry. Our track record of projects completed and funds raised is impressive. None of this would be possible without the dedication of our ELECTRI Council members, our NECA Chapters, and our industry allies. Together, we create an excitement and an energy that builds and builds. We work hard to ensure that the research agenda is meeting our contractors’ needs and expectations. We know that we influence faculty members and the way that they think about our industry. That’s valuable for all of us. ELECTRI offers opportunities for college students to interact with the Foundation through our support for NECA Student Chapters, the Student Passport Initiative, and the annual Green Energy Challenge competition. We are helping to make sure that the next generation knows and appreciates electrical construction as a career path. During this past year, ELECTRI has taken several steps to streamline its governance and operations. We work closely with NECA leaders and the ELECTRI Council to ensure that our ELECTRI International Board of Trustees is truly representative of the industry. We have also re-examined our approach to research and plan to do even more to enlist your involvement and to learn more about your ideas of what you need to help make your business better, stronger, and more profitable. We have a new web site and new marketing materials. We are proud to share these with you and hope that you will continue to find solid value in ELECTRI International for years to come. Russell J.

Our contractors show a great deal of innovation and desire to improve. But we know good ideas and great energy will sit on a shelf without action. That’s where our ELECTRI Council shines. Men and women from every part of electrical construction come together as members of the ELECTRI Council to act for our industry. We identify needs and recommend projects to address those needs. We serve as Task Force members to help guide the researchers to the most productive outcomes. We meet with our international counterparts to develop new business partnerships. One of the most important roles of the ELECTRI Council is to mentor and guide new talent. We know that competition for talented staff members, managers and executives is intense and getting more so every year. Through ELECTRI’s Talent Initiative, we work with NECA Chapters to develop strong NECA Student Chapters as a talent pipeline to bring the best and brightest to our industry and most importantly, to our NECA members and ELECTRI partners. Finally, we never stop working to enlist new ELECTRI Council members and we encourage those who have already made a financial investment in ELECTRI to take action and contribute even more to help ensure our growth and strength. We believe that every additional member of the Council makes us a better organization, better equipped to make the best decisions that will have a positive influence. 2012 Green Energy Challenge Competition Judges Angie Hart, Rosendin Electric, Inc. Eduardo Mariscal, ACEN NECA Monterrey Chapter Timothy McBride, Southern Contracting Company Sonja Rheaume, Christenson Electric Inc. Phillip Rose, Roman Electric Company Adam Rude, ERMCO Brad Weir, Kelso-Burnett Company The results of our action are impressive. Let me give you some of the numbers: n 33 MEI programs are a direct result of ELECTRI funded and directed research projects n More than 25,700 students have completed the three levels of the Electrical Project Supervision (EPS) program since it was started in 2000 n More than 450 people have taken the EPS Instructor Training Program n Over the last three years, the Facilities Energy Audit program has offered 22 classes and reached 429 students n This year, 20 NECA chapters received Wendt scholarships offered through ELECTRI to bring industry educational seminars directly to their members n Four more NECA Student Chapters were established this year alone, bringing the total to 27 at universities across the country, each supported by ELECTRI and their local NECA Chapters These are just a few actions that make us all proud of ELECTRI International’s accomplishments. To our current contributors, thank you for your efforts and support. To our potential future Council members, please take the opportunity to change our industry by joining the ELECTRI Council. Darrell Gossett Chairman, ELECTRI Council The results of our are impressive. 3 2012 Program Review Committee Anthony J.

Giles, Giles Electric Company Darrell Gossett, ELECTRI Council Chairman, ERMCO Greg Gossett, ERMCO Jerry Hayes, United Electric Greg Long, Long Electric Craig Martin, Frost Electric Richard W. McBride, The Richard W. and Darlene Y. McBride Trust How many times have we said to ourselves, “I have a good idea” but then never acted on it? Working with the ELECTRI International Program Review Committee has shown me that there are many ways that we can move an idea forward. We can find—and report back on— better ways of doing our work more efficiently, trends that we need to understand if we are to survive, management techniques and goals that can be accomplished when we apply best practices. The Program Review Committee is not just a once-a-year event. Our Committee works constantly to filter and analyze the best ideas that are brought to ELECTRI’s attention from contractors, NECA Chapters, our industry allies and the academic community. We work to create a balance so that every sector of our industry has the benefit of these new ideas and approaches. I want to thank each member of the Program Review Committee for reviewing more than 65 project proposals. Our deliberations were thoughtful and focused and we each learned a lot about new ideas for our industry. This Committee confers closely with the researchers and with our electrical contracting community to make sure that the ideas we recommend to the ELECTRI Council have substance and value. Periodically, we take time to analyze our own work. How did the research we suggested turn out? Was the idea a valid one and will it help improve our industry? Personally, I try to remember that every idea has merit. ELECTRI International itself was an exemplary idea and continues to stimulate our thinking and our action. ELECTRI is a great idea.

Educational seminars and workshops are offered for electrical contractors and their managers who need the expertise to steer their companies through periods of rapid change. n In 2012, ELECTRI’s Education Center awarded Wendt Scholarship grants to 20 NECA Chapters to offer training through MEI for their members. n Launched in 2007, the Talent Initiative was established to foster interest in the electrical construction industry among college students in construction management and related fields. Success in the Talent Initiative will result in well-rounded electrical managers prepared to improve the delivery of electrical construction projects and enhance company profits. n In 2012, up to 23 grants will be awarded to NECA Chapters to supplement chapter scholarships and/or travel funds to Convention for members of their Student Chapters. n Up to 23 additional stipends will be awarded to faculty members who develop and coordinate NECA Student Chapter activities. n ELECTRI awards prizes to the four finalist student teams in the annual ELECTRI International Green Energy Challenge Competition to offset travel and presentation costs. Fifteen teams participated in the 2012 Competition. International Center Programs Annual ELECTRI International Cross-Border Meetings were established to offer electrical contractors an opportunity to exchange ideas with counterparts in other countries, learn about the rewards and challenges of joint ventures, and network. n In March 2012 over 70 U.S. electrical contractors, local firms, industry partners, NECA Chapter leaders and university faculty attending the ELECTRI International Cross Border meeting in Panama City, Panama, received a thorough briefing on the country’s economy and its potential for cross border business opportunities. The fourth ELECTRI International Student Service Project conducted by Syracuse University was kicked-off during the meeting. The project will focus on improving the energy efficiency of a facility on the City of Knowledge Campus in Panama City. 12 The ELECTRI Talent Initiative… THE CHALLENGE IS ON.
