Future Plant Maintenance Mechanic … …its closer than you think!! FIATECH

In Your Face Computing for Construction, Operation, and Maintenance • • FIATECH Challenge – Facilitate work practice and culture changeover from paper-based to electronic process by utilizing high resolution displays to access information in drawings, 3 D models, and photographs for plant O&M Approach – Define business value – Report on state of technology – Report on needs requirements to suppliers – Identify commercially viable solutions – Test prototypes in actual maintenance setting

Restructuring the Project Delivery Process • • FIATECH Challenge – Projects evermore complex, uncertain, and pressed for speed – Need a project-based production system to maximize value and minimize waste in this setting. Source: Lean Construction Institute Approach – Use lean production techniques to create new opportunities for integration and automation so as to avoid “computerizing the cow path. ”

Capital Projects Technology Roadmap • • FIATECH Challenge – Create and maintain a technology roadmap for the capital projects industry to guide technology investment in RD&D Approach – Develop functional model of asset creation, operation, maintenance – Describe current technological SOA – Develop a clear technological vision – Develop a detailed technolgy roadmap – Define technology goals and requirements – Develop a database of current R&D projects – Develop a ranked list of technology initiatives and projects – Update roadmap and database annually
