FirstEnergy to join Utility Panel Discussion at SAP Controlling 2015

Back in January we announced that the 2015 SAP Controlling conference in San Diego would include for the first time some utility-specific content: a panel discussion of utility company accounting experts sharing their latest solutions to SAP cost accounting, regulatory reporting, and other SAP FICO/FERC challenges. (Plus, a networking session for utility industry professionals.)

We're very pleased to announce that Bryan Blom and Gerard Curley, Controllers from RPU and NTUA, respectively, will be joined on the utility industry panel by Steve Law, a business analyst and FICO/FERC subject matter expert from FirstEnergy Corporation, a diversified energy company headquartered in Akron, OH that serves 6 million customers across Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, New Jersey, Maryland, and New York.

Steve has more than 35 years of experience in utility accounting, and has worked in General Accounting, Financial Reporting, Internal Controls, and Business Services. Since 1998, Steve's primary responsibility has been Regulatory Reporting; he led the SAP FERC module implementations at General Public Utilities Corp. in 1999, and at FirstEnergy in 2003. Today, he is a project lead on FirstEnergy's upgrade to a "CO-centric" FERC model that enhances external reporting with Controlling module data.
