DataGlance Launches eScheduling, an AI-Assisted Work Scheduling Solution for Nuclear and Other Asset-Intensive Industries, Developed in Partnership with Indeavor
DataGlance, Inc. today announced the launch of eScheduling, an AI-assisted work scheduling solution designed to optimize online and outage maintenance schedules across nuclear power plants, U.S. Department of War and Department of Energy national laboratories, nuclear fuel manufacturers, military shipyards, and other asset-intensive industries. Version 1 of eScheduling is available for purchase now with customer implementations beginning in the second quarter of 2027.
eScheduling is being developed by DataGlance in partnership with Indeavor, a workforce execution platform with deep experience scheduling named personnel during commercial nuclear online and outage periods. The solution pairs DataGlance’s highly configurable user interface and workflow engine with Indeavor’s and other partners’ artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies to coordinate labor, parts and materials, and maintenance and test equipment (M&TE) resources while minimizing schedule duration, operational risk, dose, hazard exposure, and cost.
eScheduling supports both online and outage maintenance scheduling through vertical and horizontal schedule reviews that optimize critical path duration and improve coordination across operations and maintenance organizations. The solution intelligently bundles compatible activities so single equipment tagouts and retest activities support multiple work orders; reducing equipment unavailability, minimizing post-maintenance testing, and decreasing overall labor requirements. It also manages parts and materials availability by accounting for procurement lead times, automating inventory reservations, projecting stockout and reorder dates, and identifying obsolete-material risks before they impact execution.
eScheduling was conceived and functionally designed by Nathan Ives, Executive Vice President of DataGlance, drawing on his U.S. Navy nuclear submarine and shipyard overhaul/decommissioning experience, years as a U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission-licensed Senior Reactor Operator supporting commercial nuclear online and outage operations, and experience advising commercial nuclear plant leaders on outage and online performance improvement.
“Everyone who stood a watch or lived through an outage knows how many moving parts need to line up at once — people, parts, tools, and time, all against a clock and a risk profile that never sits still,” said Nathan Ives, DataGlance Executive Vice President. “eScheduling was designed the way I wish a scheduling tool worked when I was the one building and executing those schedules, and it reflects DataGlance’s decades of building technical solutions for the commercial and military nuclear industries.”
“Scheduling is one of the highest-leverage, highest-risk disciplines in nuclear operations, and it has not kept pace with the rest of the digital plant,” said Ashok Shetty, DataGlance President and Chief Executive Officer. “eScheduling brings together Nathan’s operational nuclear scheduling expertise, DataGlance’s configurable platform, and Indeavor’s workforce execution technology to give schedulers a tool that reflects how online and outage work actually gets scheduled and executed.”
Indeavor brings more than two decades of experience enforcing compliance, fatigue rules, and fair assignments at the exact moment a shift is filled, including five years of nuclear production use at two U.S. nuclear power plants and deployment across more than 300 sites in 25+ countries. Through this partnership, Indeavor is extending that same execution-first approach to named-personnel scheduling for commercial nuclear online and outage work inside the eScheduling solution.
“Getting the right qualified, compliant, and rested person into the right shift the moment it is filled is exactly the problem Indeavor was built to solve. That means enforcing fatigue rules, collective bargaining agreements, and every other constraint governing who can work a shift, and nuclear outages raise the stakes on every one of those variables. Partnering with DataGlance lets us bring that execution-first discipline directly into outage and online resource loading, instead of layering it on afterward,” said Brandon Schwarz, CEO of Indeavor.
Recognizing that experienced schedulers remain central to successful maintenance planning, eScheduling enables users to review and modify AI-generated schedules throughout the scheduling process. These refinements are incorporated into the solution’s continuous learning process, allowing the underlying generative AI models to improve over time while remaining aligned with organizational practices and operational objectives. eScheduling’s configurable, workflow-driven scheduling process can be tailored to organization-specific online and outage work management processes, business rules, and user interface requirements.
eScheduling is fully integrated with DataGlance’s other AI-assisted mobile and digital solutions, providing end-to-end operations, maintenance, and engineering work processing and execution support to asset-intensive organizations. Like the rest of the DataGlance platform, eScheduling is developed in collaboration with experienced leaders and staff from leading energy, defense, and industrial organizations, and is designed to support the industry regulations, standards, and best practices governing maintenance planning, scheduling, engineering, work execution, and operational excellence.
