The Energy & Utilities industry takes advantage of the new evolving technologies that are creating opportunities to gain strategic insights into operations actions. Making decisions and automating responsive processes is of high concern for the industry especially for repeated tasks common in operations such as equipment testing, inspections, and maintenance activities, detecting failures, dispatching resources, switching activities, tracking the movement of personnel, equipment, and vehicles.
Traditional inspections in the utility sector are highly risky and susceptible to human error. Using a mature business solution that digitizes processes otherwise paper-based, will help the industry reduce costs and allow utilities to perform inspections more frequently and have a more current systems' health assessment. The new digital-based inspections empower the industry to identify weak spots predicting potential failure points giving enough time to prepare to respond to failure events.
