Which is Right for You? OEE vs. MTBF
You may already be familiar with some of the metrics used to measure the performance of your assets. If you have had some exposure to the common thinking on this topic, then you are likely familiar with the terms OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) and MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure).

Keeping Track of your BoM Building Progress
Sometimes, asset-intensive companies work with a third-party contractor to assist with a BoM building project. There are quite a few reasons for this. For one, building BoMs are expensive. Much time, resources, and expertise are required for successful completion, and not every asset-intensive company may possess the required expertise. In this case, it would make sense for these companies to outsource their BoM building rather than embarking on a project without adequate resources.

EAM and CMMS systems are essential to the survival of asset-intensive companies. In a highly digitized era, this is not novel information. The key to extracting the full value from an EAM or CMMS system is managing it properly. Even though EAM/CMMS systems have been on the market for a long time, many companies still struggle with the basics of maintaining their systems.

Industrial AI for Asset Performance Management: A Framework for Success in Digital Transformation
Industrial AI has the potential to radically improve asset optimization. It also has the potential to exponentially increase backlog and overwhelm plant staff. Thousands of sensors, thousands of alerts, floods of data...What assets do you monitor? Which alerts must be responded to? What do you DO when get an alert? The value of digitalization for managing asset performance is only achieved when the right work is done to the right assets at the right time.

3 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Wait for Warning Signs to Maintain Your Assets
As we talk to others in the reliability industry, we’re occasionally confronted with the viewpoint that asset health and condition monitoring is a cure-all when it comes to preventing asset failure. Understandably, people like the idea that they can continuously monitor their assets and only intervene or perform maintenance when there’s degradation. However, what seems ideal is not always practical, and there are limitations to what can be achieved through monitoring.

How Important is a Bill of Materials?
The key to effective asset and maintenance data management is accuracy. An EAM system can only do so much with poor quality data and the same applies to BoMs. BoMs can provide accurate material information in real time to ensure all parts are stocked and identifies which parts are needed to complete work orders.
