New OQ Dashboard in Beta Testing 
ENERGY worldnet will soon roll out a revised Evaluation Expiration Notification process and a new OQ Dashboard.  The upgrades to the Notification process and the new OQ Dashboard feature will better enable Senior Managers and OQ Administrators to keep their finger on the pulse of their safety and OQ programs.

The OQ Dashboard will expand over time to include additional Key Performance Indicators and Audit Alerts.  Initially, the OQ Dashboard will include a visual indicator of evaluations that have expired in the past 30 days or that are scheduled to expire within the next 90 days.  Email notifications with a summary of the expiring evaluations and a Login hyperlink will be emailed to desired recipients at the beginning of each week.  Access to the Dashboard will reside on the Welcome Screen, allowing users to quickly view summary or detailed information, and sort, filter and print the data based on their specific needs.
 
If you would like to participate in Beta Testing for the new OQ Dashboard and the upgrades to the Evaluation Expiration Notification process, please email us at  support@energyworldnet.com or call us at 940-626-1941.

Farewell and Best Wishes to a Friend and Colleague
It is with mixed emotions that we say farewell to Amy Martin. Amy has been a critical part of our customer service team for over 2 1/2 years, but she has left ENERGY worldnet to spend more time with her family.
 
"Amy lives and breathes customer service" says Geoff Isbell, Vice President of Operations. "Everyone knows and loves Amy...she has the knowledge, patience, and persistence to help each client individually and to meet all of their needs."
Amy echoes those remarks and has stated that she hopes she can somehow still be a part of helping clients with their administrative OQ needs..."I very much hope to do some work from home being more of a consultant for clients. That is my dream job. I love helping our clients. I will always be a huge advocate for ENERGY worldnet."
 
Best wishes Amy!

Tupelo Squirrel Festival
 
Atmos recognizes Mr. Mark McCarver as Grand Marshal of this years Tupelo Squirrel Festival

The Tupelo Squirrel Festival is an annual late winter celebration provided by the local Atmos employees of Tupelo, MS and surounding areas. The game (i.e. squirrel meat) is supplied by Terry Herring, the Tupelo Atmos Supervisor and prepared in a gravy with the fixings for a growing number of attendees.

The first Squirrel Festival began with a modest attendance of about 40 and has grown over the past six years to well over 100. One should never recognize special guest because all guest are special, but attending are a number of the mayors from the area, councilmen, utilities directors, police and fire department, legislators, and PSC representatives. The event has grown to compliment the annual Tupelo, MS Natural Gas Association Meeting and includes vendors and attendees from that event as an added group of special guest.

To further liven the event, a special surprise Grand Marshal is named each year to reign for the event and then join the other elite Marshals of the past in their proud heritage. The Grand Marshal is awarded a specially designed squirrel hat, each having a character resemblance to its new owner. The Grand Marshal is typically joined for the ceremonial event by the previous marshals with the hats of their day. The Grand Marshall also receives a placket upholding his honor during the year's reign.

Congratulations to Mr. Mark McCarver, Director of Pipeline Safety (pictured above).  Mark is recognized as the first non-Atmos employee to be named Grand Marshal of the Tupelo Squirrel Festival.
