Summary
“ Any organization that relies on power and water resources or needs to maintain a system of assets throughout their operating footprint can improve performance through a strategic APM program,” said Matt Kirchner, director of product management and customer success, Atonix Digital. “ Harnessing the growing power of AI and advanced modeling with the broader deployment of sensor networks, we can create a clearer picture of the risks and opportunities to improve reliability and efficiency while meeting corporate and client expectations.” For more than 10 years, asset management programs based on the ISO 55000 standards have gained traction with organizations facing capital constraints, rising customer expectations, and growing commitments to sustainability and reducing resource consumption. In a recent IDC Technology Spotlight, sponsored by Atonix Digital, John Villali, research director for IDC Energy Insights, stated, “ Ultimately, strategic APM can provide asset owners and operators with the benefits of longer periods of continuous operation without unplanned outages, greater productivity, and a path to a more sophisticated asset strategy that will produce the best operational and financial results for an organization.” Clients’ drive for accessible, highly capable APM solutions is being supported by Atonix Digital across its portfolio of APM products and solutions powered by the ASSET360® platform. This secure, cloud-based platform powers products and solutions to improve processes ranging from health-monitoring of critical assets, preventing failures, and improving operational efficiency at asset-intensive facilities that range from large power generation and industrial facilities to water and wastewater treatment plants. IDC’s Villali also noted that “ when considering implementation of a digital APM strategy, capital-intensive organizations should prioritize high-value assets that have operational risk.
