Within the Asset Performance Management 4.0 (APM 4.0) solutions portfolio<\/strong><\/a>, there is proactive asset performance management based on predictive alerts and prescriptive analysis. This type of maintenance management can reduce costs, reduce unplanned downtime, and optimize the use of labor and equipment performance. Through predictive and prescriptive analysis<\/strong>, companies will be able to implement advanced asset strategies to avoid unplanned downtime for their most critical assets, while deciding which preventive or corrective asset strategy is most optimal for their less vital equipment. <\/p>\n

As automation<\/strong> becomes more prevalent in all industries and infrastructures<\/strong>, mechanical devices are being replaced by electronic components in manufacturing, industrial, and infrastructure environments. This evolution means that more sensors are being used to capture data and use it for our maintenance management. The more equipment data we are able to capture<\/strong> through these sensors, the greater the visibility and knowledge acquired for owner-operators. <\/p>\n

I<\/strong> <\/span>Digital Transformation and APM 4.0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

True digital transformation<\/strong> requires improving the asset-oriented APM approach<\/strong> into a system that comprehensively connects engineering, operations, and performance, and therefore enables a quantum leap in asset performance. Through the APM 4.0 Portfolio<\/strong>, a single, integrated digital thread is created throughout the asset lifecycle. Two key factors play a fundamental role in the successful operation of this new digital thread. First, there must be connectivity between assets and workers\/operators. Second, decisions informed by sensors and intelligent data must be able to be executed in real time. While APM 4.0 maintains the asset-oriented approach<\/strong>, it focuses on delivering results by achieving asset excellence by improving safety, profitability, and sustainability. <\/p>\n

An essential part of APM 4.0 is sensor-based decision making<\/strong> with true performance indicators: a variety of sensors and mobile devices provide decision makers with real-time data on the condition, performance, and safety of their assets, enabling more accurate decisions. APM 4.0 Management based on monitoring the working conditions of our equipment (CBM)<\/strong>, artificial intelligence, and expert engineering systems based on the data provided by the sensors to predict performance degradations and component failures before they happen. <\/p>\n

\n

It is clear that APM 4.0 management contrasts with the<\/strong> widely used and generally lagging indicators that report failures only after they occur, and that have become technologically obsolete.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Industrial equipment needs planned shutdowns and scheduled maintenance times for its satisfactory operation. Because of this, APM 4.0 management is not about maintaining assets in a perpetual online state<\/strong>; rather, APM 4.0 allows you to maximize your return on investment (ROI) by allowing you to make the most of sensor data so you know exactly how each individual asset is, from the most critical to the least vital, and how it should be managed and maintained to best mitigate risk and capitalize on opportunities. <\/p>\n

Based on this, through APM 4.0’s predictive and prescriptive analytics,<\/strong> which use sensor data to make better decisions, there are enormous opportunities to improve the performance of your assets. However, it is important to realize that it is not feasible in all cases to implement predictive asset strategies to mitigate or reduce the risks of your assets and optimize their performance. <\/p>\n
