Case Study: Siemens reduces training time and improves retention with DiSTI virtual training

Siemens cuts training time by 66% with DiSTI

Siemens, a leader in the global energy industry, sought to accelerate its digitalization initiatives by finding a cost-effective and highly scalable solution for virtual training. Their challenge was to improve technician skills and safety while achieving significant cost savings across its global workforce. To meet this need, Siemens partnered with vendor DiSTI and selected their VE Studio Virtual Training Development Platform, which utilizes Unity’s real-time 3D development platform.

DiSTI's solution enabled Siemens to develop high-fidelity virtual training and field service applications quickly and deploy them across multiple devices, including VR headsets and AR smart glasses. The measurable results were significant, with one project reducing overall training time by 66% and improving the initial pass rate by 13% compared to traditional methods. The database-driven architecture of DiSTI's VE Studio also allowed for a 30% reduction in development time on subsequent projects and facilitated the creation of additional safety training modules, which were deployed to 80,000 employees.
