With the virtualization and decentralization of activities, both pillars of Industry 4.0, companies focused on innovative solutions had a major role. As a result, companies that have been engaged in software development for years. For those to make part of the principles laid down by this revolution.
Vidya Technology and its innovative solution!
In that way, Vidya Technology develops and works with its own innovative solutions. One example is the Vidya Software, an instrument developed to integrate all the PLM (Project Lifecycle Management) phases, to the technical engineering drawings to the Operation and Maintenance phase (O&M)
Between the multiple skills that the software have, is the remote team management for inspection and maintenance activities. With a format made for the industries, it’s possible to manage teams from Work Orders (WO) generated from the execution plans. With the WO, it’s possible to choose which one will be the inspection or maintenance route, starting from assets attributes, as Corrosion Degradation State (CDS) levels, or from the assets proximity.
In this way, you can put on your schedule:
- Which assets needs inspection;
- What is the chosen inspection route;
- When is the initial date of the asset inspection or maintenance;
- Manage which team, or teams, will be responsible for the inspection/maintenance;

The adoption of digital technologies for the team and task management, as so for the automation and data analysis. Is one of the main strategic recommendations for those who work in the industry. Vidya Software can reduce over 60% of people in the field for inspection activities. And reduce up to 30% of people in the field for maintenance activities.
