Symposium 2022

Dynamic Work
Execution Symposium

March 31 - April 1

The Cosmopolitan Hotel, Las Vegas, NV

(Welcome Reception from 6pm on March 30th)

Work execution is a key aspect of Digital Transformation.   We invite you to experience first hand the benefits, business justification, and lessons learned from companies who have actually implemented solutions like Dynamic Instructions (a.k.a., Computer Based Procedures) as a path towards Dynamic Work Execution across the entire enterprise.   This Symposium is an opportunity to learn more about how innovative thought leaders are paving the way for the continued viability of nuclear power through work digitalization.

This Symposium initiates a Special Interest Group (SIG) focused on Dynamic Work Execution which is intended to be managed by the Nuclear Industry Peers themselves. The charter of this SIG will be a forum to discuss and share business justifications, lessons learned and establish industry best practices for Work Digitalization.

Powering the Digital Workforce

Introducing the

Dynamic Work
Execution Platform®

The DWEP accelerates digital transformation by guiding your existing work processes through computer-guided instructions and integrated forms driven by dynamic workflows on a platform designed for continuous improvement. Organizations achieve global awareness across all work processes with granular visibility of current state and cycle times of every instance of work executed and managed through DWEP.

The NextAxiom DWEP technology incrementally transforms the existing workforce across a large organization into a digital workforce. DWEP is the culmination of patent-pending NextAxiom technology with more than ten years of field experience in the nuclear industry focused on automating work processes. This is augmented by over seven years of human factors research around the Computer-Based Procedure (CBP) initiative from Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and the US Department of Energy.
