| Digital Nuclear Platform for Automation of Maintenance Activities |
|---|
| This presentation would describe requirements that established through development and design of the Nuclear Digital Platform (NDP) by PKMJ Technical Services, referred to as PKMJ NDP. The PKMJ NDP was designed to be a centralized solution to support large-volume storage and access, large-volume data processing, advanced data analytics techniques (e.g., artificial intelligence/machine learning), data and information visualization, and reporting. PKMJ utilizes enhanced business intelligence techniques in support of NPP customers; however, these tools are used in industries throughout the world. The PKMJ NDP takes input from nuclear industry subject matter experts and combines it with input from mixed discipline teams of data experts in order to apply cutting-edge principles to rapidly explore data, unlock and test new ideas, and turn those ideas into services. The presentation would also describe the development of automated work package in the PKMJ NDP reducing the risk of human error, optimizing resources allocation, automating the process, and leading to cost-saving if implemented. |
