Manufacturing
From reactive maintenance to predictive operations: reducing critical equipment downtime.
- Organisation
- Global discrete manufacturer (anonymised)
- Challenge
- Unplanned stoppages on constrained lines were absorbing overtime and lost output.
- AI solution
- Asset-class failure models with edge inference and planner-approved work orders.
- Systems integrated
- Historian, CMMS, ERP
- Delivery approach
- 10-week pilot on two lines, then multi-site rollout.
- Measurable outcome
- Downtime on covered assets reduced (client-reported, figure withheld pending approval).
“The models earned trust because maintenance teams saw the lead time they needed to act.”Full case study
