How might we
Help EDF teams co-design the digitization of their maintenance process?
Launched by EDF in 2014, the "Grand Carénage" is an industrial program aimed at renovating and modernizing existing nuclear power plants. As a part of this program, n 2020 we co-facilitated a series of workshops led in collaboration with the teams of Switch and Go, meant to further include EDF's teams in the renovation process. Spread accross two days, the workshops were meant to help EDF's teams collectively imagine digitization solutions to tackle the issues faced by the maintenance teams.
Co-designing an AR Interface
Preparing for an inspection visit to a nuclear power plant is a complex matter. However, within the scope of the Grand Carénage, which covers the entire French fleet of nuclear power plants, there is a significant need to verify the installations and make necessary modifications or replacements. Virtual reality, with the VVProPrépa software, assists maintenance teams in programming their work, especially when the operational reactor is inaccessible.

Collective Ideation
Together with Switch and Go, we facilitated a workshop meant to help the EDF teams express their needs and identifying ways to tackle them by means of technology.
