   The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (Commission) will soon be seeking a consulting firm to conduct a Stratified Management and Operations Audit (Management Audit) of PECO Energy Company. Management Audits are periodically required of certain utility companies under 66 Pa.C.S. § 516(a) (relating to audits of certain utilities). The Commission's general administrative power and authority to supervise and regulate public utilities in this Commonwealth is in 66 Pa.C.S. § 501(b) (relating to general powers). A Request for Proposal (RFP) will be prepared and issued by the Commission in the very near future and will be posted on the Commission's website at www.puc.state.pa.us under the Announcement section on the home page. It is anticipated that the Management Audit will begin in June 2006 and that the consultant's final report will be completed by May 2007. A bidders' conference will be held to answer specific questions about the project and may be scheduled as early as mid-December 2005. The exact date of the bidders' conference will be announced in the RFP cover letter to be posted on the Commission's website. Questions related to the release of the RFP should be directed to John Clista, [phone], fax [phone], [e-mail].
