Systems Engineering in the Energy Industry
Systems Engineering in the Energy Industry
The energy industry has lagged behind in terms of digitization for many decades now. The silver lining to this is that they can now learn and benefit from digitalization and system engineering approaches from other industries. This minimizes their digital migration risks because they can also bring in people who are already experienced to implement the new methodologies.In this fourth and last episode, John Nixon of Siemens Digital Industries Software is joined by John Lusty, the Industry Lead for Energy & Utilities Industry Marketing at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They’ll share with us the impact that a systems engineering approach is expected to have on the energy industry.Today, you’ll learn more about why the lack of proper management tools is a leading cause of delays and cost overruns in major capital projects. You’ll also learn about how a system engineering approach would transform the energy industry. Additionally, you’ll learn about why big energy companies are opting to bring in experienced leaders from other industries. What You’ll Learn in this Episode:The challenges of system engineering in major projects (00:37)Why the energy industry should adopt a systems engineering approach (04:09)The shortcomings of a document-driven approach (06:41)What big companies are doing to learn more about systems engineering (10:34)Connect with John Nixon: LinkedInConnect with John Lusty: LinkedIn See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The Impact of Low-Code Solutions on the Energy Industry
The Impact of Low-Code Solutions on the Energy Industry
The need for custom software in the energy industry has drastically slowed down acquisitions of off-the-shelve software. Companies want solutions that can be used to build multiple custom applications fast and at a lower cost. They also want solutions that raise the team’s morale by simplifying automation and enabling the development of applications that are user-friendly.In this third of four episodes, John Nixon of Siemens Digital Industries Software is joined by John Lusty, the Industry Lead for Energy & Utilities Industry Marketing at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They’ll share with us the impact that low-code is having on data management within the energy industry.Today, you’ll learn more about how low-code is changing the world of software development in the energy industry. You’ll also learn about the best place to start when adopting it into your organization. Additionally, you’ll learn about Siemens’ low-code solution, Mendix, and the training required to get started.What You’ll Learn in this Episode:How low-code is impacting materials companies (01:57)The limitations of off-the-shelve software (03:43)How automation has changed data handling in the energy industry (05:16)Why field operations are the best place to start when deploying low-code applications (08:18)Connect with John Nixon: LinkedInConnect with John Lusty: LinkedIn See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The Application of a Requirements Management Approach
The Application of a Requirements Management Approach
In large projects, the number of individual requirements/specifications can be overwhelming when considered side-by-side with the design. It can easily lead to the design team accidentally skipping some of them as they are already dealing with a large amount of data. This challenge can be solved by integrating those requirements into the design tools to make sure that the product taking up your resources comes out as required.In this second of four episodes, John Nixon of Siemens Digital Industries Software is joined by John Lusty, the Industry Lead for Energy & Utilities Industry Marketing at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They’ll share with us how a requirements management approach can be applied in large projects within the energy industry.In this episode, you’ll learn about the challenge that comes with a large amount of complex data. You’ll also learn why it is important to adopt a requirements management approach while working on large projects with many requirements. Lastly, you’ll hear about the benefits that come with integrating the requirements with the design tools.What You’ll Learn in this Episode:The different sources of data in large energy projects (00:34)How a large amount of information affects processes (04:02)The benefits of adopting a requirements-driven approach in the energy industry (06:38)An example of a company that adopted the requirements management solution (11:30)Connect with John Nixon: LinkedInConnect with John Lusty: LinkedIn See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Unpacking Siemens Digital Lifecycle Excellence
Unpacking Siemens Digital Lifecycle Excellence
When you want to get maximum value from an asset, it's not enough to just design, build and install it. You need to also collect all the data showing its performance in operation as well as keep a record of any repairs and adjustments. Siemens Digital Lifecycle Excellence helps you do that by paving the road for efficient data collection, processing, and analysis from the design stage to the eventual decommissioning.In this first of four episodes, John Nixon of  Siemens Digital Industries Software is joined by John Lusty, the Industry Lead for Energy & Utilities Industry Marketing at Siemens Digital Industries Software. They have 55 years of combined experience in the energy and utility industry. Today, they’ll help us understand the need for continuous data collection from the design stage to the decommissioning point.In this episode, you will learn what Siemens Digital Lifecycle Excellence entails and the impact it is expected to have on the energy industry. You will also hear about the data management problem that Siemens Xcelerator solves. Additionally, you will learn about the benefits that the energy industry stands to gain from digitalizing.What You’ll Learn in this Episode:The eight segments within Siemens DISW’s energy and utility industry (02:20)What the digital lifecycle approach entails (03:51)The problems that Siemens Xcelerator solves (08:15)How a digitalized energy industry will help in attracting talent (16:23)Connect with John Nixon: LinkedInConnect with John Lusty: LinkedInResourcesXcelerator See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
