The proposed article describes the general process of implementing an Asset Management Plan following the NCh-ISO 55001 standard for the Colmito Power Generation Plant in Chile. Its aim is to improve service quality by reducing downtime due to faults, optimizing operations, and extending the lifespan of assets. This implementation aligns with current legislation and meets the defined objectives and goals in asset management, in compliance with Supreme Decree 109 of 2017 from the Ministry of Energy. This decree regulates the safety of electrical installations for production, transportation, provision of complementary services, energy storage systems, and distribution of electrical energy, specifically referring to the Normative Technical Specification RPTD N°17, which establishes the requirements of the SGIIE (Integrity Management System for Electrical Installations) in Chile. In the first part, the operational context of the Colmito Power Generation Plant and the regulatory framework of the electrical market are developed with the aim of providing an understanding of the organization and how it interacts with the various entities involved in the market. Additionally, details are presented about the diagnostic tool used to assess the requirements stipulated by the Asset Management standard NCh-ISO 55001 (a reference tool developed by the IAM: Institute of Asset Management). The article also includes the results of the maturity level assessment of the Colmito Power Generation Plant concerning the requirements of the NCh-ISO 55001 standard. Finally, the article describes the guidelines for the development and implementation of the Asset Management System for the Colmito Power Generation Plant. It outlines the planning, support, operation, performance evaluation, and improvement processes proposed to consolidate the Asset Management Strategic Plan (PGEA). The goal is to comply with items 4 to 10 of the NCh-ISO 55001 standard in order to minimize operational risks and maximize the profitability of the assets of the Colmito Power Generation Plant throughout their entire lifecycle. El artículo propuesto, describe el proceso general de implementación del Plan de Gestión de Activos bajo el enfoque de la norma NCh-ISO 55001 para la Central de Generación Eléctrica Colmito (Chile), que tiene como finalidad, mejorar la calidad de servicio, reduciendo la indisponibilidad por averías, optimizando la operatividad y alargando la vida útil de los activos, adaptándose a la legislación vigente y cumpliendo con los objetivos y metas definidos en la gestión de activos, dando cumplimiento al Decreto Supremo 109, de 2017, del ministerio de energía, reglamento de seguridad de las instalaciones eléctricas destinadas a la producción, transporte, prestación de servicios complementarios, sistemas de almacenamiento y distribución de energía eléctrica, específicamente, el Pliego Técnico Normativo RPTD N°17 que establece los requisitos del SGIIE (Sistema de Gestión de Integridad de Instalaciones Eléctricas), Chile. En la primera parte, se desarrolla el contexto operacional de la Central de Generación Eléctrica Colmito y el marco regulatorio del mercado eléctrico con el objetivo de brindar un entendimiento de la organización y de cómo interactúa con los diferentes entes que tienen una participación en el mercado. También, se presentan los detalles de la herramienta de diagnóstico que se utilizó para evaluar los requerimientos exigidos por la norma de Gestión de Activos NCh-ISO 55001 (herramienta de referencia desarrollada por el IAM: Institute of Asset Management) y los resultados del nivel de madurez que tiene la Central de Generación Eléctrica Colmito con respecto a los requerimientos de la norma NCh-ISO 55001. Finalmente, se describen las directrices en la elaboración y puesta en marcha del Sistema de Gestión Activos para la Central de Generación Eléctrica Colmito y los procesos de planificación, apoyo, operación, evaluación del desempeño y mejora que se proponen para consolidar el PGEA (Plan de Gestión Estratégico de Gestión de Activos), con el objetivo de dar cumplimiento a los ítems del 4 al 10 de la norma NCh-ISO 55001, para minimizar los riesgos operacionales y maximizar la rentabilidad de los activos de la de la Central Colmito a lo largo de todo su ciclo de vida.

This study presents the development of an immersive training platform based on the Metaverse concept, aimed at enhancing the training of maintenance personnel in foundational reliability and maintenance engineering methodologies. The proposed tool, FMECA-VR-0.1 (Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis – Virtual Reliabil-ity-0.1), integrates two key techniques—Qualitative Risk Criticality Matrix (QRCM) and Failure Modes, Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA)—to support the optimi-zation of maintenance plans for physical assets. The project is structured in two phas-es: the conceptual design of the tool based on the Maintenance Management Model (MMM) developed by INGEMAN, and the development of an immersive digital pro-totype within a virtual reality environment. The training environment allows users to explore and practice reliability techniques in a realistic and safe virtual setting. A case study was conducted on a wind turbine from the Valle de los Vientos Wind Farm in Chile. Results indicate that virtual environments significantly improve training out-comes by reducing learning time, minimizing human errors, and enhancing reliability and maintainability indicators. The FMECA-VR-0.1 tool represents a milestone in the digital transformation of technical training in maintenance, offering an adaptable so-lution for various industrial contexts. Its immersive approach, combined with engi-neering-based analysis, reinforces human capabilities and contributes to the lifecycle optimization of key maintenance processes.
