 Our Story

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​From the beginning, Strategic Power Systems, Inc.® (SPS®) has been committed to helping our customers understand how their running Reliability and Availability stacks up with their “peers.”  Our customers operate some of the most sophisticated facilities and complex technologies in the world.  SPS understands that their Reliability & Availability Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are a reflection of their O&M practice.  ORAP® Benchmarks help operators understand how their performance compares with the fleet so that changes can be made as required.  Data is abundant in power facilities, the competitive market is beginning to place a premium value on “good data”…. ORAP has it! 

ORAP was created in the mid 1970’s to drive change and progress as well as to support and lead to the technology that exists today.  Sal DellaVilla, our CEO and Founder, had the personal belief and commitment in the value of ORAP to ensure that it would continue to support the owner/operators and OEMs to keep a focus on performance.  Today, ORAP does just that.  As the market focuses on price and efficiency in their buy decisions, SPS is there to ensure that questions of Reliability, Availability, Maintainability and Durability are easily answered.​​
