Operations & Maintenance Engineering

Virtual Plant Model

Imagine the benefits of conducting training and competency assessment activities in a three-dimensional virtual environment that replicates the design and layout of the actual facility, even before construction is complete. Trainees could perform operations procedures; isolate and study specific systems; and retrieve relevant operations, maintenance and safety materials through a virtual model. Baker’s unique Virtual Plant Model (VPM) allows trainees to practice and learn in an environment free from costly consequences or disruptions to operations and reduces the time and costs associated with preparing operators for their responsibilities.
 
Through the integration of VPM technology into our suite of multimedia training tools, Baker offers our clients all of the benefits associated with state-of-the-art multimedia operator training and competency assessment in a virtual environment. Giving operation trainees the ability to navigate through and perform typical operations procedures in a 3-D replica of the facility in which they will be working results in increased comprehension and knowledge retention. Conducting the training and assessment in a virtual environment reduces the time and costs associated with preparing new operators for their responsibilities or cross-training existing operators into a new facility.
 
As with all of Baker’s training activities, the ultimate goal of the training and competency assessment activities using the VPM is the preparation of a workforce with the skills and abilities needed to operate in a safe and efficient manner that results in increased run-time and reduced production costs.
 
Contact us if you have questions concerning Baker’s training activities using the Virtual Plant Model, or call our Houston office at 1-800-235-5290.
