Your enterprise solutions support the key processes that are critical to running power plants and facilities, including end-to-end support for your asset management practices. Maintenance processes need to ensure reliability, regulatory compliance and efficient low cost operations. NextAxiom Interface Solutions add value by enabling an integrated flow of information from procurement, finance, project execution, document management; workforce management; environment, health, and safety procedures. The integration enables a single source of the truth to thrive across the entire enterprise by leveraging the enterprise IT systems you already own. Business processes move across systems isolated silos that are now connected — talking the same language for the first time. No need to rip and replace all your investments in IT systems and processes.
NextAxiom Interface Solutions can be implemented without disrupting operations and deployed in phases over a matter of months. NextAxiom also reduces training costs while simultaneously enhancing the quality of data entered.The Interface Solutions integrate processes across plant maintenance, project management, work scheduling, document management, and financial information. Connected systems support a new view of operations to support the entire asset life cycle of a plant and manage shutdown, turnaround, and outage periods most efficiently without replacing your legacy applications.

Leading utility companies depend on sophisticated work scheduling capabilities to keep enterprise assets operating at maximum reliability and efficiency. However, if your schedules are managed through paper-based, hard-coded or inflexible integrations, then you are far from reaching your potential in efficiency and compliance.
Whether planned or unplanned, routine or complex, Ventyx Asset Suite and Primavera P6 best-of-breed systems work to ensure your tasks are effectively planned and your activities are successfully completed. The real key is getting them to work together.
How these two systems interact will determine whether you can fully meet your day-to-day challenges:
- Responsiveness - When your business needs change, can you quickly modify your interface logic?
- Flexibility - Do you have control when and under what conditions your data is interchanged?
- Performance - Does your integration support multi-threaded, multicore processing for faster runtime?
- Monitoring - Are you able to identify and correct processing bottlenecks on the fly?
- Longevity - Will your integration survive new application releases without costly code changes?
- Data Entry - Is there a single point of entry for people to enter data without complicated navigation?
The NextAxiom interface solution will have you answering in the affirmative to these and other business-critical questions. With NextAxiom, legacy application features are enhanced by providing a user friendly interface for data entry. Labor hours can be entered at the same time Work Orders are updated. Scheduling receives the data needed to schedule the work while at the same time payroll receives the hours expended by the technician. Cost savings are realized by having the technician make only one update.

Express Interfaces -- exactly what it implies. Present the user with the information they need based on their role ...nothing more, nothing less. Streamline business processes to reflect workflows at your facility. NextAxiom can help you get there.
For examples of several Ventyx Passport interfaces that NextAxiom developed for a nuclear power facility, peruse the video clips below. You can also download this Brochure for further information.

Condition Reporting is a critical component of any utilities facility. All too often, business processes and the associated software to support these processes are built around homegrown systems that may meet the immediate needs of the business but don't provide the necessary data integrity and streamlined business processes.
The NextAxiom Condition Reporting solution solves these issues by tightly integrating with the Passport backend while providing a frontend interface that suits the corrective action procedures at power facilities. NextAxiom integrates with the existing Passport database so there is no need for redundant data and the obvious complications of integrating that data and preventing errors.
For examples of several Condition interfaces that NextAxiom developed for a nuclear power facility, peruse the video clips below. Note that at this facility, 'Condition Reporting' is referred to as 'Station Condition Reporting'.
