“Virtually everything in business today is an undifferentiated commodity except how a company manages its information. How you manage information determines whether you win or lose” - Bill Gates, CEO Microsoft Difference Between Winning & Losing
Deliverables • Documents • Many sources – Consortium members, vendors, partners, suppliers………. • Many formats – some intelligent, some not….. • Drawings • Many sources……….. • Fewer formats…….. • Data • Many sources…. • One format • Persistent – is not format and version dependent

Value of data - often neglected The ‘Real’ Issues

Why Integration vs Automation • Guidelines for Specifying Integrated Computer-Aided Engineering Applications for Electric Power Plants. • EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute) report NP-5159M, Research Project 2514-3, May 1987
Relative Annual Savings From Automation and Integration at an Average Nuclear Power Plant EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute) report NP-5159M, Research Project 2514-3, May 1987
Affect on RAM (Reliability, Availability and Maintainability) by re-using the data more than once in other activities • example equipment valve specs and associated activities • [including:- performance monitor, performance analysis, reliability assurance, reactor safety, incident investigation, industrial safety assurance and analysis, valve/valve operator maintenance, maintenance procedure development, equipment history analysis, operational procedure development, emergency operations, operating experience evaluation] • yielded an annual cost saving of $8M alone (in 1987!). EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute) report NP-5159M, Research Project 2514-3, May 1987
Why Integration vs Automation • AUTOMATION: computerizing data and tasks for use within a single activity or department. • INTEGRATION: computerizing data transfer among multiple activities, departments or companies.
Application ‘A’ Application ‘B’ Application ‘G’ Application ‘E’ Application ‘F’ Application ‘C’ Application ‘D’ Application ‘H’ Point to Point Integration • Incompatible Formats • Inconsistent Data Duplication • Poor Information Integrity • Complex Change Mgmt • No Auditability • who / what / when • Geometric IT Cost Curve What? When? Why? To whom? Need to know?

Benefits for the PlantOperations and Maintenance • Facilitate longer production runs • Can you cut Time-to-KW? • The benefit is profit margin on additional production • What is value of larger market share • Cut plant down-time with IIM and project management • Cut non-productive time • Opportunity for integration of engineering data with planned maintenance
Cost vs. Benefits • Evolutionary vs. Revolutionary • From Document, to Asset, to Data Centric • Value-add Now vs. Bet your business for future gain • Base on ROI vs. absolute cost • What is the cost of not doing? • Exercise a “Business Appraisal” to determine Metrics and Measurement • Generate more KW’s • Make money vs. Save money
