ENERGY AND INDUSTRY OF RUSSIA: Potential of Remote Technologies

Almost all sectors of the economy have been affected by the emergency measures to transfer entire companies to a remote way of operation.  The task of organizing remote operation of personnel at enterprises of critical infrastructure is especially urgent. What processes in industry and production have been switched to online today? In which industries remote information collection, monitoring, and automated process control came into everyday life? How is information security of remote work ensured, especially in critical infrastructure enterprises? The well-known industry magazine Energy and Industry of Russia asked the leading experts in the IT industry. 

“Industrial production and management processes are being transferred online now. With respect to 10-15 years ago, ERP projects were popular, and today the focus has shifted towards production processes. This is understandable, as production has the main potential for optimization and many opportunities to improve efficiency. We, at ITPS, work with the oil&gas sector and other sectors of continuous production. We see what performance indicators companies achieve in a short time using joint project cases with customers, introducing systems for remote information collection, monitoring and automatic control of production processes, and how these enterprises begin to overtake competitors. Transition to a digital model provides significant competitive advantages and allows companies to grow and develop even in times of crisis, changing their approach to business and increasing production efficiency by 10-20, and even up to 50% for various parameters. In various industries and enterprises, such processes are at different stages, they are leaders, and companies that are lagging behind. Many market participants have revised their views on the issue of information security. Now we are actively helping our largest customers to quickly get production management tools through secure communication channels. There are different ways to create a secure infrastructure and software products (SaaS , IaaS). They’re relevant offers and guarantees for companies of any level,” said CEO of the ITPS Group of Companies Leonid Tikhomirov.
