Hereinafter, a guidance information presentation system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to
The guidance information presentation system 1 is configured to include a plant 100, a guidance information presentation device 10, a maintenance department terminal device 20, an operation department terminal device 21, a technical department terminal device 22, and a management department terminal device 23. The guidance information presentation device 10 is connected to each of a plant device 100A, a plant device 100B, the maintenance department terminal device 20, the operation department terminal device 21, the technical department terminal device 22, and the management department terminal device 23 so that the guidance information presentation device 10 can communicate therewith. A plant to be operated other than the plant 100 may be present.
The plant 100 is, for example, a power generation plant with a gas turbine combined cycle. Plant devices 100A, 100B, and the like are installed in the plant 100. The plant devices 100A and 100B are, for example, gas turbines. The plant 100 transmits operation data such as output values and rotational speeds of the plant devices 100A and 100B to the guidance information presentation device 10.
The guidance information presentation device 10 outputs guidance information to the department terminal devices 20 to 23. The plant device installed in the power generation plant has a life cycle and its role and usage change while the plant device is used for many years. Staff of a management organization needs to apply appropriate maintenance and improvement according to the change. The guidance information presentation device 10 generates the guidance information according to an operation situation of the plant device 100A, a role of each department related to the operation of the plant 100, and the like on the basis of the operation data acquired from the plant device 100A.
The maintenance department terminal device 20 is an information processing device such as a personal computer (PC) provided in the maintenance department. The staff of the maintenance department performs periodic inspection or maintenance work on the plant device.
The operation department terminal device 21 is an information processing device such as a PC provided in the operation department. The staff in the operation department conducts business related to a plant operation such as monitoring of a plant state, starting/stopping of a plant device, and a change in a target output value.
The technical department terminal device 22 is an information processing device such as a PC provided in the technical department. The staff of the technical department has expert knowledge and skills, makes various determinations from technical points of view, and solves problems that cannot be solved by the operation department or the maintenance department.
The management department terminal device 23 is an information processing device such as a PC provided in the management department. Staff in the management department will consider economic efficiency and profitability, personnel planning and power generation planning, cost reduction planning, and the like.
When the guidance information presentation device 10 generates the guidance information used by the staff of the maintenance department, the guidance information presentation device 10 transmits the guidance information to the maintenance department terminal device 20. The same applies to other departments.
As shown in
The operation data collection unit 101 acquires operation data transmitted by the plant 100 and records the operation data in the storage unit 112.
The operation time calculation unit 102 calculates an operation time of the plant device 100A on the basis of the operation data.
The number-of-starts calculation unit 103 calculates the number of starts of the plant device 100A on the basis of the operation data.
The operation mode determination unit 104 identifies a life stage of the plant device 100A or the like (a gas turbine or the like) provided in the plant 100 on the basis of the operation data. In the life stage, for example, “Base Load”, “Intermediate”, and “Peaker” are present in accordance with a maturity level. “Base Load” refers to a period during which the plant device operates as a central power generation device that covers power demand from the start of an operation of the plant device. In the life stage of “Base Load”, the plant device 100A is in operation all the time. Hereinafter, the life stage “Base Load” is referred to as a golden stage. “Intermediate” refers to a period of a transition stage for a new model in which the plant device passing through the golden stage is operated weekly or daily. Hereinafter, the life stage “Intermediate” is referred to as the transition stage. “Peaker” refers to a period until disposal is reached after switching to a new model. During this period, the plant device 100A is solely operated in a case in which power is insufficient or the like. Hereinafter, the life stage “Peaker” is referred to as a decline stage. The operation mode determination unit 104 determines the life stage of the plant device 100A on the basis of an operation time of the plant or an operation time and the number of starts of the plant device 100A.
The operation state determination unit 105 determines the operation state of the plant device 100A on the basis of the operation data. The determination of the operation state is a determination of whether or not the plant device 100A is in operation or whether the plant device 100A is in a state before start, a state in operation, or a state after an operation.
The operation organization information acquisition unit 106 acquires information about the department or staff of a destination to which the guidance information is presented. The information about the staff includes, for example, information such as a name, the number of years of experience in the department, and qualifications held.
The calculation unit 107 performs various calculation, analysis, and analysis processes related to the provision of the guidance information. For example, the calculation unit 107 performs simulation of profit planning for the management department. Alternatively, the calculation unit 107 creates a predictive detection model by machine learning for the operation department. Alternatively, the calculation unit 107 performs risk analysis on the plant state for the maintenance department. In addition, although various calculations, analyses, and the like are required for generating the guidance information and the calculation unit 107 is implemented as a program module for each process, the calculation unit 107 has all functions thereof in the present embodiment.
The lecture attendance information acquisition unit 108 acquires lecture attendance history information about the educational service related to the operation of the plant 100 for which staff of each of the maintenance department, the operation department, the technical department, and the management department has attended a lecture.
The trouble information acquisition unit 109 acquires trouble information generated in the plant 100.
The organization information comparison unit 110 acquires information about an operation organization of another plant and compares the acquired information with information about an operation organization of a current plant. The current plant is a plant (the plant 100 in the present embodiment) that is a target from which the guidance information presentation device 10 acquires operation data.
The guidance information presentation unit 111 generates guidance information according to the life stage, the operation state, and member information of the plant 100 and outputs the generated guidance information to a terminal device (the maintenance department terminal device 20 or the like) of each department.
The storage unit 112 stores various information.
A process of presenting the guidance information related to the plant device 100A will be described with reference to
Next, the operation organization information acquisition unit 106 acquires information about the department for which the guidance information is presented (step S14). For example, title information indicating types and details of information to be output to the department terminal devices 20 to 23 according to each life stage and each operation state of the plant device 100A is pre-recorded in the storage unit 112, and the operation organization information acquisition unit 106 reads and acquires information about a department to which guidance information is output and types and details of guidance information to be output to the department on the basis of the information. The operation organization information acquisition unit 106 outputs information in which a presentation destination (department) and the guidance information to be presented are associated with each other to the guidance information presentation unit 111. Next, the guidance information presentation unit 111 presents guidance information corresponding to a life stage, an operation state, and a presentation destination department of the plant device 100A (step S15). An example of the guidance information is described below.
For example, in the storage unit 112, information indicating “additional tightening of bolts of a part XX” is pre-recorded as guidance information to be presented to the plant device 100A in all the life stages. On the basis of this record, the guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs guidance information such as “Please tighten up bolts of a part XX again” to the maintenance department terminal device 20.
For example, ideal setting values for performing an efficient operation for setting items according to, for example, each life stage and each operation environment (an outside air temperature or the like) are recorded in the storage unit 112. The guidance information presentation unit 111 reads the setting values according to the life stage determined in step S12 and the operation data (the outside air temperature or the like) collected from the plant 100 and outputs guidance information for prompting the staff to set ideal setting values in the setting items to the maintenance department terminal device 20.
For example, when a presentation destination department and a type of guidance information to be presented acquired from the operation organization information acquisition unit 106 are a “maintenance department” and “advanced risk analysis”, the guidance information presentation unit 111 instructs the calculation unit 107 to perform the advanced risk analysis. Then, for example, a program having the function of the advanced risk analysis included in the calculation unit 107 performs risk analysis according to the life stage using a well-known risk analysis technique using operation data during a previous operation stored in the storage unit 112, information about an inspection result of inspection work performed by the maintenance department after the operation, or the like. The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs a result of risk analysis by the calculation unit 107 to the maintenance department terminal device 20. Likewise, on the basis of an instruction of the guidance information presentation unit 111, the calculation unit 107 may predict a lifespan of a part of the plant device 100A and analyze a part to be replaced and the guidance information presentation unit 111 may output prediction and analysis results to the maintenance department terminal device 20. Staff of the maintenance department can view the guidance information and perform maintenance work before the operation.
For example, when a presentation destination department and a type of guidance information to be presented acquired from the operation organization information acquisition unit 106 are an “operation department” and an “optimum start sequence”, the guidance information presentation unit 111 instructs the calculation unit 107 to automatically create the optimum start sequence. Then, a program having a function of automatically creating the optimum start sequence included in the calculation unit 107 creates a start sequence with highest efficiency in, for example, a load band according to the life stage (for example, a rated load in the golden stage, a load lower than that during the other periods, or the like). The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs optimum start sequence information to the operation department terminal device 21. The staff of the operation department can view the guidance information and start the plant device 100A in the optimum sequence.
The guidance information presentation unit 111 may output the guidance information to be output to the maintenance department terminal device 20 and the operation department terminal device 21 also to the technical department terminal device 22. The staff of the technical department can check the guidance information and check whether or not the guidance information is appropriate from a technical point of view.
On the basis of an instruction of the guidance information presentation unit 111, the calculation unit 107 performs simulation such as a cost reduction measure (for example, a procurement method of suppressing a fuel cost or the like), staff planning of the operation department (a staff arrangement capable of performing an operation with as few people as possible in accordance with a power generation plan), or profit planning (for example, prediction of a bid price of power, calculation of a profit, and the like) in a calculation method according to the life stage. The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs a simulation result to the management department terminal device 23. Staff of the management department can view the guidance information and perform cost reduction, an appropriate staff arrangement, profit prediction, and the like.
The calculation unit 107 determines important inspection items to be inspected at the next regular inspection on the basis of operation data collected by the operation data collection unit 101 according to an instruction of the guidance information presentation unit 111. At this time, the calculation unit 107 may set different items in accordance with the life stage as inspection items. For example, the calculation unit 107 determines that there is an inspection item in relation to an item in which a value close to an abnormal value is output from among operation data items. The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs information about the important inspection items to the maintenance department terminal device 20.
The calculation unit 107 performs predictive detection of trouble according to an instruction from the guidance information presentation unit 111. Specifically, in a predictive detection function provided in the calculation unit 107, a probability of occurrence of trouble indicated by latest operation data collected by the operation data collection unit 101 is calculated on the basis of a predictive detection model generated by machine learning and it is determined that there is a possibility of occurrence of trouble when a probability of occurrence is greater than or equal to a threshold value. At this time, the calculation unit 107 may switch the predictive detection model in accordance with the life stage. The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs guidance information such as a high possibility of occurrence of trouble, details of the trouble, a prevention method and the like to the operation department terminal device 21. When trouble actually occurs, the guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs guidance information, such as a method of coping with the trouble that has occurred, to the operation department terminal device 21.
A cause of trouble and a method of coping with the trouble for each life stage are recorded in the storage unit 112 and the guidance information presentation unit 111 may output the method of coping with the trouble for each life stage at the time of occurrence of trouble. For example, when the stopping of the plant device 100A is detected, there is a possibility that an excessive thermal load due to frequent repetition of starting/stopping may be one cause if the life stage is the transition stage. In this case, the guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs information (a cause) and a countermeasure method for a portion of a high possibility of destruction or failure due to a thermal load to the operation department terminal device 21. Alternatively, if the life stage is the decline stage, there is a possibility of stopping because it is not possible to perform a normal operation due to rust according to stopping for a long period. In this case, the guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs information (a cause) or a countermeasure method for a portion where rusting is likely to occur to the operation department terminal device 21.
The cause of the trouble and the guidance information about the method of coping with the trouble may also be output to the maintenance department terminal device 20 and the technical department terminal device 22. The staff of the maintenance department and the technical department can cooperate and cope with the trouble.
<When Operation State is State after Operation>
For example, the calculation unit 107 performs damage evaluation on parts of the plant device 100A based on the operation data collected by the operation data collection unit 101 according to an instruction from the guidance information presentation unit 111. The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs guidance information indicating what part is consumed to what extent, necessity of exchange/maintenance work, and the like to the maintenance department terminal device 20.
For example, information about an upgraded product that exerts an effect for each life stage is recorded in the storage unit 112. For example, if the life stage is the transition stage, the number of starts/stops increases as compared to the golden stage. An operation at a load less than the rated load may be required during the transition stage. In the storage unit 112, information about upgraded products for shortening a start time and information about upgraded products capable of being operated efficiently even with a small load are recorded in association with the life stage “transition stage”. In the storage unit 112, information about upgraded products contributing to stable operation (for improving reliability) is recorded in association with the life stage “golden stage”. The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs information about upgraded products according to the life stage determined in step S12 or guidance information including a merit in the case of upgrading to the maintenance department terminal device 20. Staff of the maintenance department will consider application planning of upgraded products with reference to the guidance information.
For example, a result (an actual value) of the optimum start sequence created before the operation is recorded in the storage unit 112. The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs the actual value to the operation department terminal device 21 as guidance information for prompting the staff to perform a process retrospective on a current operation.
In the exemplary example of a maintenance department, the guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs information about upgraded products and the like according to the life stage as guidance information to the operation department terminal device 21. The staff of the operation department will consider the introduction of upgraded products with reference to the guidance information.
For example, information about upgraded products according to the life stage and information indicating technical requirements for introducing the upgraded products are recorded in the storage unit 112. The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs information about upgraded products according to the life stage determined in step S12 and guidance information including technical requirements necessary for the introduction to the technical department terminal device 22. The staff of the technical department views the guidance information and considers whether or not the introduction into a plant of a current company is possible.
For the above-described upgraded products, the guidance information presentation unit 111 reads information indicating an upgraded product, an introduction cost, and an economic benefit after introduction (information indicating that a cost can be reduced by X yen at the time of unplanned stopping because a more stable operation can be performed and the like) according to the life stage determined in step S12 from the storage unit 112 and outputs the read information as guidance information to the management department terminal device 23. The staff of the management department views the guidance information and considers the introduction of upgraded products into the plant of the current company.
The calculation unit 107 analyzes bid competitiveness and electric power demand from information about a power sales record in the current operation and the guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs analysis results as guidance information to the management department terminal device 23. Also, in this case, the calculation unit 107 may switch an analysis method in accordance with the life stage. The staff of the management department views the guidance information and considers the next power generation plan.
According to the guidance information presentation system of the present embodiment, it is possible to provide the guidance information as described above suitable for the life stage and the operation state of the plant device 100A by combining real-time operation data of the plant 100 and departments of the operation organization. Because the guidance information about details suitable for business is presented for each department, it is possible to provide guidance information according to needs of the staff of each department. By creating information about know-how and the like relying on experience so far to perform an operation and automatically presenting the created information, for example, the staff of the operation department with less experience can safely operate the plant. By presenting guidance information suitable for a situation of the plant, it is possible to efficiently operate the plant.
Next, the life stage determination method in step S12 of the flowchart of
In
A first method of the life stage determination process will be described with reference to
First, the operation time calculation unit 102 calculates a total of operation times during a corresponding period from information such as a starting time and a stopping time included in operation data of the plant device 100A during a predetermined period (for example, 1 year, 1 month, 6 months, or the like) recorded in the storage unit 112 (step S21). The operation time calculation unit 102 outputs the total operation time to the operation mode determination unit 104. Next, the operation mode determination unit 104 determines the life stage on the basis of the length of the operation time (step S22). For example, the length of the operation time (a threshold value A) for distinguishing the transition stage and the decline stage with respect to the length of the above-described predetermined period and the length of the operation time (a threshold value B) for distinguishing the transition stage and the golden stage are predetermined (threshold value B>threshold value A), and the operation mode determination unit 104 determines the life stage by comparing the total of the operation times calculated by the operation time calculation unit 102 with the threshold values (the threshold value A and the threshold value B). Specifically, when the total of the operation times is less than or equal to the threshold value A, the operation mode determination unit 104 determines that the life stage of the plant device 100A is the decline stage. When the total of the operation times is greater than the threshold value A and less than the threshold value B, the operation mode determination unit 104 determines that the life stage of the plant device 100A is the transition stage. When the total of the operation times is greater than or equal to the threshold value B, the operation mode determination unit 104 determines that the life stage of the plant device 100A is the golden stage.
Next, another method of the life stage determination process will be described with reference to
First, the operation time calculation unit 102 calculates a total of operation times of the plant device 100A during a predetermined period as in step S21 (step S31). The operation time calculation unit 102 outputs the total operation time to the operation mode determination unit 104. Next, the operation mode determination unit 104 separates the decline stage from the other life stages on the basis of the length of the operation time. Specifically, the operation mode determination unit 104 determines whether or not the length of the operation time is less than or equal to the threshold value A (step S32). Here, the threshold value A is the length of the operation time for distinguishing the decline stage and the transition stage as described with reference to
When the total of the operation times is greater than the threshold value A (step S32; No), the number-of-starts calculation unit 103 calculates the number of starts of the plant device 100A during a predetermined period (step S34). For example, the number-of-starts calculation unit 103 calculates the number of starts during the period by aggregating information such as a start clock time included in the operation data of the plant device 100A during the predetermined period recorded in the storage unit 112. The number-of-starts calculation unit 103 outputs the calculated number of starts to the operation mode determination unit 104. Next, the operation mode determination unit 104 calculates the number of starts per unit period (step S35). Specifically, the operation mode determination unit 104 obtains the number of starts per unit period by dividing the number of starts calculated in step S34 by the operation time calculated in step S31. Next, the operation mode determination unit 104 compares the calculated number of starts per unit period with the threshold value C (step S36). As shown in
When the number of starts per unit period is less than or equal to the threshold value C (step S36; Yes), the operation mode determination unit 104 determines that the life stage of the plant device 100A is the golden stage (step S37). When the number of starts per unit period is greater than the threshold value C (step S36; No), the operation mode determination unit 104 determines that the life stage of the plant device 100A is the transition stage (step S38).
The operation mode determination unit 104 determines the life stage of the plant device 100A by the method described with reference to
A case in which the guidance information presentation system 1 of the present embodiment presents guidance information according to a situation of the plant 100 or a department has been described above. However, there is a possibility that it is not possible to sufficiently prevent unplanned stopping or the like from occurring due to a mistake of an operation monitoring person with low proficiency by merely presenting the guidance information. Although human resource development is important to avoid trouble caused by proficiency levels of members, active engagement in human resource education is not carried out in many cases in the conventional plant operation organization. To solve such a problem, the guidance information presentation system 1 of the present embodiment presents guidance information for prompting the staff to attend a lecture of an educational service. More specifically, the guidance information presentation system 1 presents an appropriate educational service in conjunction with a role and an operation method of the plant device 100A that changes in accordance with the life stage.
In
In this manner, the educational needs change dramatically due to an influence of the plant's life stage and the replacement of staff. As will be described below with reference to
Meanwhile, even if the staff of the first to third generations exemplified above are engaged in the same plant device 100A, a grounded ability required according to a business environment at that time is different. For example, considering the business environment during a period for some time from the start of the operation of the plant, basic knowledge and a grounded ability such as an ability to solve problems are required for the first generation because the experience of the entire operation organization is inadequate and knowledge is insufficient during the period. In the second generation after a series of know-how is accumulated and a technically stable operation becomes possible, creativity is required in addition to the grounded ability required for the first generation to strengthen the profit structure. In the business environment during a period in which the third generation is engaged, it is necessary to refrain from capital investment as much as possible and competently increase a profit while controlling risks. On the other hand, knowledge related to an operation of the plant is sufficiently accumulated. In such an environment, in the third generation, a grounded ability such as creativity and applied skills utilizing accumulated knowledge is required. The guidance information presentation system 1 presents guidance information for guiding the educational service which extends the required grounded ability for the staff of each generation.
First, the operation data collection unit 101 collects operation data of the plant device 100A and records the collected operation data in the storage unit 112 (step S41). Next, the operation mode determination unit 104 determines a life stage of the plant device 100A (step S42). A specific determination method is as described in the flowcharts of
The guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs guidance information for prompting the staff to attend a lecture of the educational service according to a life stage, the information about the staff, and the lecture attendance history information (step S45). An example of the guidance information is described below.
For example, if the number of years of experience of the staff included in the information about the staff is 0 and there is no lecture attendance history of an educational service, the guidance information presentation unit 111 presents guidance information for prompting the staff to attend a lecture of a basic educational service common to all the life stages and common to departments and a departmental-specific basic educational service. The basic education service common to the departments is, for example, a lecture that provide basic knowledge of gas turbines and peripheral devices, a lecture that provides knowledge on safety and risk management, or the like.
For example, the guidance information presentation unit 111 presents guidance information for prompting the staff to attend a lecture of the following educational service on the basis of the life stage determined in step S42, the department to which the staff belongs acquired in step S43, and the information about the lecture attendance history acquired in step S44.
<When Operation is being Performed in Golden Stage>

When an upgraded product is applied and a new device or function is added, the guidance information presentation unit 111 presents guidance information for prompting the staff to attend a lecture of an educational service that provides knowledge about the newly added function or device.
The guidance information presentation unit 111 may present guidance information for prompting the staff to attend a lecture of an educational service related to trouble, for example, when the same device as the plant device 100A is used in another plant and trouble occurs in the device.
For example, the guidance information presentation unit 111 may present a number of basic education services for the first generation and present a basic educational service of more practical details accumulated in the past operation for the second generation and the third generation, in accordance with the generation of the staff. In addition, an educational service of details suitable for nurturing the grounded ability required for each generation such as introducing of case examples of a method of improving operation efficiency established during a daily operation may be presented.
Next, an example in which guidance information about human resource education for the entire organization instead of individual staff is presented will be described.
First, the operation data collection unit 101 collects operation data of the plant device 100A and records the collected operation data in the storage unit 112 (step S51). Next, the operation mode determination unit 104 determines a life stage of the plant device 100A (step S52). The specific determination method is as described in the flowcharts of
Next, the lecture attendance information acquisition unit 108 acquires and aggregates lecture attendance history information about all staff of all departments (step S53). For example, in the storage unit 112, information such as lecture attendance histories of educational services is recorded for all the staff in all the departments. The lecture attendance information acquisition unit 108 reads the lecture attendance information and aggregates the read information according to each department. Thereby, how many staff members are attending the lecture in what educational service in what department or the total number of staff members attending the lecture according to each department and according to each educational service is aggregated. The lecture attendance information acquisition unit 108 outputs the aggregated information to the guidance information presentation unit 111.
Next, the trouble information acquisition unit 109 acquires aggregated information about trouble occurred in the plant 100 (step S54). For example, in the storage unit 112, various types of trouble occurring during a predetermined period or events leading to trouble are recorded, and the trouble information acquisition unit 109 reads the information and aggregates the information according to each trouble or event. The trouble information acquisition unit 109 outputs the aggregated information to the guidance information presentation unit 111.
Next, the guidance information presentation unit 111 presents guidance information for prompting the staff to receive education in accordance with a lecture attendance history and the number of times of occurrence of trouble (step S55). Specifically, the guidance information presentation unit 111 generates guidance information for prompting the staff to attend the lecture of an educational service for which a lecture attendance rate for a certain department is low when there is a low lecture attendance rate for the certain department in lecture attendance history information aggregated according to each department and each educational service acquired from the lecture attendance information acquisition unit 108 and outputs the generated guidance information to the management department terminal device 23. For example, in the operation department, a lecture attendance rate of a “lecture for an operation monitoring department” is assumed to be 10%. The guidance information presentation unit 111 compares the lecture attendance rate with a lower limit (for example, 60%) of the lecture attendance rate of the educational service within a department, determines that the lecture attendance rate in the operation department is low, and outputs guidance information indicating that the “lecture attendance rate of the lecture for the operation monitoring department of the operation department is 10%. Please attend the lecture for the operation monitoring department” or the like to the management department terminal device 23. The management department views the guidance information, determines that there is a possibility that a proficiency level of the operation department's skill is low, and prompts the staff to attend the lecture of the educational service for the operation department.
If the number of times of occurrence of certain trouble is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold value in trouble-specific aggregated information acquired from the trouble information acquisition unit 109, the guidance information presentation unit 111 generates guidance information for prompting the staff to attend a lecture of an educational service for providing knowledge required to prevent the trouble and outputs the generated guidance information to the management department terminal device 23. The management department views the guidance information, determines that it is necessary to prevent trouble from reoccurring, and prompts the staff for each related department to attend a lecture of an educational service related to the trouble.
A process of outputting the guidance information for prompting the staff to receive the education may be executed periodically, for example, once a month, or may be executed at any timing according to an instruction of the staff of the management department. Thereby, it is possible to improve a level of knowledge of the entire organization, secure a certain level or more, steadily operate the plant, and strengthen a profit structure by entrusting the lecture attendance of the educational service to the department without entrusting the lecture attendance of the educational service to the individual.
Next, an example in which guidance information for outputting a consulting result related to the operation organization is presented will be described.
First, the operation data collection unit 101 collects operation data of the plant device 100A and records the collected operation data in the storage unit 112 (step S61). Next, the operation mode determination unit 104 determines a life stage of the plant device 100A (step S62). A specific determination method is as described in the flowcharts of
Next, the operation organization information acquisition unit 106 acquires information about all staff for each department (step S63). Next, the organization information comparison unit 110 compares a personnel composition of the operation organization of the plant 100 with a personnel composition of another plant (step S64). For example, information about the personnel composition (the number of staff members for each department) for each life stage in another plant having the same type of plant device is recorded in the storage unit 112. The organization information comparison unit 110 calculates the number of staff members for each department by totaling the number of staff members acquired by the operation organization information acquisition unit 106. The operation organization information acquisition unit 106 compares the calculated number of staff members for each department with the number of staff members for each department in another plant for each life stage. The organization information comparison unit 110 outputs a comparison result to the guidance information presentation unit 111. Next, the guidance information presentation unit 111 presents guidance information about the appropriate number of persons according to the life stage and the department (step S65). For example, it is assumed that the number of staff members of the operation department of the other plant of the golden stage is 10 and the number of staff members of the operation department of the current plant (the plant 100) of the golden stage is 20. Then, the guidance information presentation unit 111 outputs guidance information indicating that the “number of staff members in the operation department is large” to the management department terminal device 23.
Staff of the management department can use such guidance information as a trigger for reconsidering the personnel composition of the organization. By reconsidering the organization and redistributing human resources, it is possible to optimize the operation organization.
