Abstract
Though widely diversified, the various RJR companies, encompassing the Tobacco, Food and Beverages, Transportation, Energy, Institutional Service and Packaging groups, all share a common concern for effective energy management.
While the structure of RJR's corporate energy program is somewhat different from that of most companies, it could well serve as a model for other similarly large, highly diversified organizations. The organization structure is such that the Manager of Energy Planning reports directly to the Corporate Vice President responsible for Business Planning and Development, who reports to the Vice Chairman of the Board.
Each year RJR operating companies complete a five-year Energy Strategic Plan, which is compiled and developed into a Corporate Energy Strategic Plan by the Manager of Energy Planning.
