The MinTraq readiness lens for Towngas
MinTraq measures readiness in four areas. Here is how each one applies at Towngas.
Know the fundamentals of your discipline and how they apply to a utility serving homes or businesses. For technical roles, connect your skills to dependable supply; for commercial roles, connect them to service needs.
Prepare to weigh customer impact, safety and continuity when information is incomplete. A clear account of what you would verify, communicate and escalate is more useful than a quick answer.
For roles guiding teams, readiness includes setting clear responsibilities and maintaining consistent standards across daily work. Consider how you would coordinate specialists without losing sight of customer service.
Explore where data analysis or AI could help with demand planning, service workflows or equipment monitoring. Explain how you would check outputs before relying on them in utility decisions.
