Industry
Industrial information systems for the energy and nuclear sectors
Facilities with very long service lives, safety requirements, critical asset management: the energy sector demands complete control of technical data.

The context
Electricity generation, transmission and distribution, the nuclear fuel cycle, new energies: facilities are designed to last several decades and are subject to very stringent safety requirements.
Control of technical data, requirements and asset maintenance is at the heart of performance and compliance.
IT challenges: energy
The topics that come up most often in our discussions with manufacturers in the sector.
Requirements and safety
Manage a large number of requirements and demonstrate that they are addressed from design through to operation.
Facility configuration
Keep the definition of facilities and equipment up to date over decades.
Asset management
Plan maintenance, manage spare parts and control operating costs.
Complex engineering projects
Coordinate many stakeholders on long, heavily documented projects.

We work on PLM and configuration management, ALM and requirements management, EAM for asset maintenance, and ERP, for energy producers, distributors and nuclear industry companies.
Our consultants provide consulting, business-side project assistance (AMOA), integration and application maintenance and training.
The role of each building block
- PLM: product definition, bills of materials, changes and configuration.
- ALM: requirements, systems engineering, software and traceability through to testing.
- EAM / CMMS: maintenance of equipment and facilities, spare parts and costs.
- ERP: purchasing, inventory, manufacturing orders, costs and business management.
Example assignments
- Requirements and facility configuration management
- PLM for engineering projects
- EAM / CMMS for asset maintenance

Our approach
We adapt our methods to the industry’s quality and documentation requirements: traceability of decisions, rigorous version management, formalised acceptance testing. Our consultants know how to work with safety, quality and engineering teams so that information systems support control of the facilities.
Every assignment begins with understanding your processes and the constraints of your industry. We then propose a realistic roadmap and support you as needed: one-off expertise, project support or reinforcement of your teams and those of your integrator. Our consultants combine business and technical expertise and are proficient in the leading solutions on the market.
