SAIC Extends APM Across Plant and Field Operations
SAIC, an industrials organization in the United States, uses APM from AVEVA to support plant and field operations for operations engineers.
Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Productivity | Fewer stalled items because operations visibility has a clear owner |
| Productivity | Handoffs in plant and field operations sit in a shared queue instead of a mailbox trail |
| Risk and compliance | APM is the governed place operations engineers use for plant and field operations |
Story
Inside SAIC, plant and field operations used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in industrials groups working out of the United States. Operations engineers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
SAIC uses APM from AVEVA as the working layer for operations visibility. AVEVA, part of Schneider Electric, provides industrial software for engineering, operations, and real-time data, including the PI System. The practical change is simple: plant and field operations has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What SAIC gets from AVEVA is a durable place to run plant and field operations and a way for operations engineers to see the same operations visibility at the same time.
