Assystem Focuses on Digitalization to Enhance Nuclear Project Reliability
On June 30 in Lyon, Assystem presented its vision on the role of digital technology in improving nuclear projects, demonstrating how digital tools structure data and enhance the reliability of infrastructures amid increasing complexity.
Digitalization as a Response to Industry Challenges
The group participated in the Digital Event of Nuclear Valley in Lyon, gathering over 300 stakeholders from the nuclear sector. In a context where requirements for timelines, quality, and risk management are intensifying, Assystem views digitalization as a strategic lever to manage industrial complexity rather than as an ancillary option. Angelo Zoino, a business manager in systems engineering, PLM, and digital twin, illustrated how the digitization of engineering helps to structure data and processes, offers a shared view of the project, and accelerates decision-making.
Digital Solutions Presented to Project Owners
Assystem showcased several concrete use cases during the event. The information system urbanization of the CEA's Jules Horowitz reactor and the optimization of PLM processes at Newcleo demonstrate how structuring data supports business activities. The group also showcased the capture and integration of field data into the digital twin through scan to BIM, transforming field surveys into usable digital models for design and maintenance. The virtualization of control-command engineering further complements this offering by ensuring digital continuity to enhance the reliability of analyses and data traceability.
A Strategy Based on Combining Expertise
Assystem combines its historical expertise in nuclear engineering with digital capabilities to support the industry in this transformation. The group asserts that this approach allows nuclear stakeholders to better manage complexity, improve the reliability of installations, and strengthen their decision-making capacity in a demanding environment.
