Challenges:
- Improve data quality of the compliance inspection & maintenance results
- Eliminate errors introduced by leakage clerks when entering data from mobile units; which can result in a "false" non-compliance.
- Subsequent to the PG&E San Bruno incident, fines associated with this type of documented non-compliance can be over $2B.
- Reducing the potential for this type of errors reduces the associated risk of incurring fines.
Solution:
- GuiXT simplified process and permitted screens to be tailored to specific job roles, such as Field Operation Supervisor and District Operation Clerk
- Replace standard SAP terminology with language familiar to users
- Add default data in reports to speed up processing time
Results:
- Simplifying SAP Plant Maintenance resulted in a reduction in time by 60% just with the first rollout.
- Because of the reduced number of screens, errors were reduced by 80%.
- Saved development time instead of coding in ABAP
