Virtual Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs)
Saving time, money and energy through virtual approach
Virtual factory acceptance tests (FATs) provide significant cost savings and accelerate project timelines without the need to have all team members in the same place. Additionally, Virtual FATs remain unaffected by any travel restrictions, and can proceed as planned considering any restrictions on travel put in place due to major global events.
Virtual Reality Hardware
Concuir Consulting utilizes Apprentice hardware and partners with their supporting staff to execute Virtual FATs. Apprentice’s headsets allow for digital content display without any disruption resulting from being able to see one’s external environment. The headsets can relay information to as many people as needed, including Concuir’s consultants, client’s employees, vendors, equipment manufacturers, and other stakeholders who wish to be in attendance without being on site.
