Veolia Nuclear Solutions builds custom remote systems (robots) to retrieve high radiation waste from difficult to access locations that are too dangerous for human access. Most of the projects we build are focused on accessing waste at the Fukushima Daiichi plant in Japan. Our project lifecycle begins with the conceptual design of a remote system based on the situational limitations. This is followed by initial bench testing of novel systems required for the design. We then complete a detailed engineering design of the system before procuring the many parts required for such complex systems. VNS builds these system in-house in Lafayette Colorado, before programming, commissioning, and debug of the equipment. We work closely with our Japanese counterparts to ensure a quality product, that exceeds the requirements of the project. As the Project Manager, I handle a variety of tasks that ultimately manage the scope, schedule, budget, and stakeholders of the projects. Our current project (which is also the companies largest project) is on track to be delivered on-time and within budget Fall 2024
