Fewer resources

Historically nuclear plants have procured equipment for safety-related systems from approved nuclear vendors. Many of these vendors have now eliminated their nuclear QA programs, resulting in equipment that cannot be used for safety-related systems. Commercial Grade Dedication allows utilities to procure qualified components through a credible third-party dedicator such as Kinectrics.
