The document outlines selection criteria for implementing the i3d service/application in industrial settings, emphasizing benefits such as improved workflow navigation, cost savings, and enhanced worker training through VR/AR technologies. It discusses the gradual investment and operational costs associated with the implementation, alongside a method for assessing the value and cost indicators of different apps. The overall aim is to align the plant services with Industry 4.0 standards and maximize synergies from multiple applications.
