Vantomic OCC · Outage control

Facts, not status.

Vantomic OCC sits between outage planning and outage operations. During planning it reads the schedule and suggests a tighter sequence. During the outage it reads what actually happened in the field and recommends the exact move that recovers the critical path. It never writes back to your systems of record.

Two modes

Planning mode becomes operations mode.

Planning mode

Vantomic OCC joins the planning team 18 to 24 months before the outage starts. Refueling, maintenance, or forced outage; BWR or PWR — it reads the Primavera P6 schedule (or whichever planner you use) and suggests how to make the plan more efficient before a single day is committed.

It is one-way: OCC does not change the plan. Planners review the suggestion, update P6 if they agree, and the improved schedule flows back into OCC on the next read.

Operations mode

When the outage starts, OCC switches to operations mode. It ingests field attestations — work-order closures, clearance sign-offs, RCA documentation — and recomputes release state from what actually happened, not what was scheduled.

When a signature is missing, a work order stalls, or a crew is waiting, it names the missing fact, the downstream impact, and the exact dollars-and-hours move that recovers the schedule.

Advisory, not autonomous. Vantomic OCC never modifies your EAM, scheduler, or clearance system. It gives your outage managers and operations staff a live, priced recommendation; your people decide what to execute in the field.

How it works

Evidence → computation → consequence

1

Evidence

A fact is asserted once — by a worker, a Maximo closure, an Asset Suite attestation — with a timestamp, an author, and a decision record behind it.

2

Computation

Release is an OR over AND-groups of required facts, recomputed on read. Alternate paths need explicit human arming. Never inferred, never cached.

3

Consequence

Every blocker names the missing fact, the predecessor, the owning role, the system of record — and the critical-path hours and dollars at stake.

Continuous agents

Four agents, running while the outage runs.

They do not narrate. Each produces a computed result you can act on, with the arithmetic done by the engine rather than the model.

  • Schedule reconciliation

    Compares the live P6 plan against real field attestations and flags where actual progress has diverged from the schedule.

  • Dollar-ranked blockers

    Identifies what is constraining the critical path and ranks each blocker by its replacement-power cost, so the most expensive wait is seen first.

  • Closure-evidence screening

    Checks that every completed work order has the required evidence, sign-offs and documentation before downstream work is released.

  • Resequencing with the hours already computed

    Suggests alternative orderings of pending work to recover slipped time, with the hour and dollar savings already calculated.

“Defer the RP survey to put that crew on the valve lineup — up to 6.5 hours of pull-in.”
The suggestion is real, and the hours are already computed.

Next

Pair it with Vantomic RP and the sentence completes itself.

OCC prices the hour. RP knows the hold is an RP hold, and names the missing signature.
