After monitoring 3GW+ across Australia, we strongly believe that effective GPS compliance programs rest on four pillars:
1. Monitoring – Continuous automated performance tracking. Catches issues early.
2. Testing – Validates edge conditions. Essential, but complementary to monitoring.
3. Modelling – Periodic validation that models match reality. Critical for investigations.
4. Reporting – Proactive status updates, not reactive record-keeping.
A testing-centric framework no longer reflects best practice.
As IBR dominates our grid, we need compliance frameworks that leverage modern capabilities while maintaining rigorous standards.
