Engineering Planning and Management

What Engineering Planning and Management does

Engineering Planning and Management (EPM) is a US-based engineering consulting and software firm founded in 1980 and headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts. The company specializes in probabilistic risk assessment (PRA), fire protection engineering, nuclear safety services, environmental qualification, and chemical process safety management. EPM serves as a long-standing compliance partner to nuclear utilities in the United States and Canada (including all but four Canadian CANDU units), as well as commercial, industrial, and chemical processing clients.

Its core product is the proprietary GENESIS Solution Suite, a set of safety-related software applications supporting nuclear plant electrical configuration, cable aging management, environmental qualification, fire protection, and post-fire safe shutdown compliance. The suite includes specialized modules—SAFE for 10 CFR 50 Appendix R safe shutdown analysis, Milieu for environmental qualification, TDAC for NFPA 805 transition documentation (NRC-accepted), STRIDES for surveillance frequency control, and PILOT and VIPER for fire protection permitting and emergency response. Applications are embedded with long-term compliance configuration controls that anchor to regulated nuclear processes, and outputs from TDAC have been reviewed and accepted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

EPM makes money through project-based engineering consulting engagements with nuclear utilities and industrial clients, supplemented by software licensing and support for the GENESIS Suite and customized training delivered at client sites or at Framingham headquarters. Distribution is sales-led and direct, leveraging EPM's role on the NFPA 805 committee and NEI task forces to generate enterprise relationships. The company operates as a wholly integrated subsidiary of ONET Technologies (Groupe ONET), a French nuclear engineering services group, maintaining offices in Framingham, Raleigh, Kansas City, and Toronto.
