IBM announced a new portfolio of IoT solutions that team AI and advanced analytics to help asset intensive organizations to improve maintenance strategies. The solution is designed to help organizations to lower costs and reduce the risk of failure from physical assets such as vehicles, manufacturing robots, turbines, mining equipment, elevators, and electrical transformers.
IBM Maximo Asset Performance Management (APM) solutions collect data from physical assets in near real-time and provide insights on current operating conditions, predict potential issues, identify problems and offer repair recommendations. Organizations in asset-intensive industries like energy and utilities, chemicals, oil and gas, manufacturing, and transportation, can have thousands of assets that are critical to operations. Keeping these assets up and running is critical to operations and monitoring and optimizing on-going maintenance, repair, and replacement decisions requires constant analysis.
Business leaders can now know if a machine is likely to fail, using advanced analytics and AI to understand timing, predict consequences and identify problems. IBM's APM solutions help organizations shift asset maintenance strategies from preventative to predictive and prescriptive by integrating disparate data sources to find assets in need of attention and recommending actions. This solution complements a company's existing enterprise asset management (EAM) capabilities, such as IBM's market leading Maximo EAM solution, and integrates seamlessly with other EAM providers.
IBM will also offer the APM suite customized for specific industries, beginning with APM for Energy and Utilities (E&U). This provides industry-specific capabilities to analyze and act on insights from utility assets and includes risk/criticality scoring, health and degradation models, standard industry data model, and weather data integration.
"It's critical for companies to think about how effective their maintenance practices are. With the launch of its new Asset Performance Management solutions, IBM is helping organizations make insight-driven decisions with an integrated portfolio of advanced analytics and AI capabilities to help them improve operational effectiveness and efficiency," said Kareem Yusuf, general manager, IBM Watson IoT. "Maximo APM is designed to enhance an organization's existing Enterprise Asset Management system by addressing all aspects of asset performance including health, predictive maintenance and repair optimization.
