TVA And TXU Power Implements ATI's Mobile AWARE Product For Performing Handheld-based Boiler Inspections
SAN JOSE, CA - 7/15/2005 -
Automation Technology, Inc. (ATI), a supplier of Collaborative Asset Management solutions for the energy industries, is pleased to announce that TVA and TXU Power have acquired ATI's Mobile AWARE product for performing and documenting boiler inspections using a mobile hand-held device. This implementation builds on both companies use of Aware for managing their boiler tube failure program.
This move was driven by a need to improve documentation and management of knowledge pertaining to the condition of boilers, and easily utilize that knowledge to plan for future outages. This enables both TVA and TXU the ability to centralize knowledge pertaining to boiler conditions, and enables engineers to analyze failure trends. By doing this, reporting is streamlined and standardized from one central location as well.
