Nuklearna Elektrarna Krskoanaging Technical Documentation for the 'Rightsized' 90's and Beyond

Nuklearna Elektrarna Krsko was constructed as a turnkey plant, entering commercial service in 1981. NEK operates the plant with a unique management philosophy which has adapted well to the demands of today's business environment. Contributing to this success has been the NEK Management Information System (MIS) that has assisted NEK in 'making more with less'. A key element of the MIS is the Technical Document system, which includes the DCM (Document Control Module) and QRM (Quality Records Management), enabling the successful retrofit of the existing document management and 'turnkey' plant records environment to a new, thoroughly integrated system controlling plant operation and configuration management. The system integrates the Engineering Equipment and Configuration Management data systems, providing immediate, realtime cross-reference of plant equipment and plant modifications with technical documentation.
