Conclusion
12
•Outage managers need and want the dashboard tool.
(Some utilities already use dashboards to show progress, but
none [to our knowledge] is using historical data analysis to predict
outage completion).
Feedback from industry:
•Could be used by any commercial NPP - Stand-alone tool or
incorporated into a larger work management software package.
•Licensed for inclusion by existing work management software
companies, such as IBM, Curtiss-Wright, Pipeline, Rolls-Royce, and
ABB.
Application potential:
•Investigate methods to improve real-time plant risk management
and configuration control during outage as a function of work
activities and plant system alignments.
•Develop technologies to detect undesirable interactions between
plant configuration and activities.
Next Step - Outage Risk Management Improvement (ORMI) Pilot Project:
