Digital Feature: The Need to Go Beyond the Digital Twin
Is building a Digital Twin enough to meet the challenges and manage all the data available in today's project lifecycle? To move beyond the “Digital Twin” and to the next level of global industrial assets data management, Hexagon introduces the digital and data-driven Smart Digital Reality™, enabling customers to globally leverage data throughout their asset’s lifecycle.
Digital Feature: Building Industrial Confidence
In this article, we introduce the concept of Whole Person Competence Development (WPCD) and its significance in building a competent and fully enabled workforce. By adopting a holistic approach to employee development, organizations can foster deeper levels of engagement, satisfaction, and personalization across their workforce. The WPCD emphasizes the importance of engaging and leveraging a person's entire being so that they can bring the best of who they are to everything they do.
Digital Feature: So you’ve rolled out new software. How do you make it stick?
It is a great feeling when a software project ends – the system is installed, the users are trained and adoption seems to be trending up. Everyone is happy and among the project champions and implementers, there are high-fives all around. Cut to nine months later; the team is being trained in some new process, and the solution that was implemented all those months ago has lost the buzz that it had when it was new – and worse, usage of the system, which was good initially, seems to be trending down. This is a common situation, and as vendors of enterprise software solutions, we here at Hexagon may see it more than most. So, what do companies do? What works?
Digital Feature: Day in the life of-Part 1
Here at Hexagon, we have engineers and product developers with lots of real-world experience. We know our customers want software and services that will directly make improvements in operational performance. But how do you evaluate the often confusing and nebulous claims made in product brochures? Today we look into the work done in a typical day by a unit production engineer and a site control systems engineer.
Digital Feature: Driving chemical processing efficiencies using data-driven asset performance management
Stacey Jones, Global APM Portfolio Leader, Energy Industries at ABB, reveals how next-generation asset performance management (APM) can be successfully applied to hydrocarbon processing, maximizing the uptime of critical assets, and ensuring safe, sustainable operations.
Digital Feature: Enhancing ethylene cracker radiant tube integrity through innovative robotic inspection
