CHARLOTTE, N.C. November 26, 2012 – Rocky Sease, CEO of SOS Intl LLC and Matt Sadinsky, CEO of PReP Intl LLC have purchased each other’s corporate shares. Sease now owns 100% of SOS Intl and Sadinsky owns 100% of PReP Intl (Prequalified Ready Employees for Power Intl).
These transactions, effective as of October 1, 2012 enable Sease and Sadinsky to pursue their own visions as CEOs and sole owners of SOS Intl (www.sosintl.com) and PReP Intl (www.prepintl.com) respectively.
SOS Intl specializes in compliance consulting and training services related to NERC Reliability Standards and is a NERC-approved continuing education provider. SOS has trained more than 11,000 system operators, engineers, and power marketers in 1100+ utilities across North America.
Founded by Sadinsky and Sease in 2002, SOS was created to provide training for system operators, the men and women who run the North American power grid. As NERC standards and requirements continued to develop, SOS expanded to meet escalating client needs related to compliance and readiness. SOS is the only company offering comprehensive solutions around NERC training, NERC compliance and improving business operations.
Sease, SOS CEO, is a Clemson University graduate and has more than 30 years in the electric utility industry and experience in virtually every aspect of operations including generation, transmission, distribution, and customer service operations. Sease assumed the role of CEO at SOS Intl on January 1, 2009.
Sadinsky and Sease founded PReP Intl in 2009 to respond to an emerging lack of talent qualified to fill the funnel of system operators, engineers and power marketers headed toward retirement. The vision at PReP Intl was to address the way candidates are sourced and staffed and to develop an effective way to assure prequalified talent is ready when needed. Access to prequalified talent is key to assuring reliability of the grid. PReP Intl offers scope of work contracts for interim placement, talent development and direct hire. Sadinsky assumed the role of CEO when PReP Intl was founded on January 1, 2009.
Matt Sadinsky is a Cornell University graduate with 30 years of change and organizational development (OD) experience leading the human resources/OD functions in several learning organizations.
