Quanta Serves As Puget Sound’s Outsourcing Partner.
Puget Sound Energy was one of the first to announce it would outsource
100% of its operation and maintenance functions. Twelve contractors
were considered and Quanta was awarded the contract for electric and
gas. Today, Quanta is managing all electric and gas construction for
new residences and businesses in Puget Sound’s Washington service
area, as well as managing all inventory and materials for this work.
Productive work hours have increased by at least 1 hour per day, a
30% cost savings over historical numbers is projected, and service
levels continue to improve. Puget Sound and Quanta forged new ground
with the outsourcing model. As it has proven successful, more and
more companies are following suit.
