Case Study: Siemens achieves faster, scalable maintenance training with DiSTI VE Studio

Siemens Digitalizes Maintenance Training for its Global Workforce

Siemens, a global power generation leader, needed a faster, more scalable way to train its distributed maintenance workforce as experienced technicians retired and travel costs rose. Traditional classroom and hands-on training for complex gas turbine service was time-consuming, expensive, and limited by the availability of physical equipment. Siemens partnered with DiSTI and used the VE Studio virtual training development platform to begin digitizing maintenance training.

DiSTI delivered virtual maintenance trainers for Siemens that could run on desktop, tablet, VR, AR, and through Amazon AppStream 2.0 for asynchronous cloud access. The solution cut development time by 50% versus manual coding, reduced classroom training time by more than 66%, improved initial assessment scores to over 93%, and increased student throughput while lowering travel and training costs.
