Common Challenges for Maintenance Organizations

Inconsistent definitions of Machine Criticality

Maintenance workforce – size, skills, and where to focus energy.

Where and when to apply predictive maintenance?

When to invest in IIoT live data integration?

Digital Reliability Centered Maintenance

DRCM® is the digital solution from C5MI that categorizes machinery function, captures equipment criticality and failure modes, and develops live condition-based and predictive maintenance monitoring strategies. Instead of spreadsheets, all data is contained in digital cloud-based applications, and all applications are integrated with the core ERP transactional maintenance system. The SAP asset performance management suite is the primary platform to enable DRCM® to support clients in building a common operating asset picture.

By incorporating digitally connected assets using Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) technologies, DRCM® links production systems and assets with business processes. The result is a digital continuous improvement capability that reduces maintenance overhead costs and increases asset availability. Machinery is better maintained, and failures are predicted and prevented before they can impact production.

Global Leader in Fiberglass Manufacturing

CUSTOMER PROFILE

A U.S.-based fiberglass and insulation manufacturer. Their products help make sustainable insulation with modern manufacturing techniques and materials.

Our customer was experiencing manufacturing disruptions resulting from unplanned downtime and no real-time visibility of their assets. The challenges they brought to C5MI’s experts included:

Ineffective data–engineers working from asset data that is weeks or even months old
Multiple disparate data sources with different methods for labeling and indexing data
Unexpected asset failure, often at expensive or inopportune moments
Time wasted manually searching large datasets for trends

C5MI recommended and implemented the following digital solutions:

Coordination of the SAP Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (MII) to orchestrate multiple data sources into one data hub.
Creation of an Asset Common Operational Picture
Use of SAP Intelligent Asset Management to enable condition-based monitoring and predictive maintenance
Planning a scalable asset management system that will allow the client to expand these practices as needed

Our solutions helped the customer achieve increased visibility and immediate ROI.

Secure communication pipeline between on-premise and cloud applications
Increased trust in the SAP digital systems and reduced risk
Client engineers now able to quickly triage issues
ROI achieved through mitigation of these first two instances alone
Real-time IoT visibility— every 5 minutes vs monthly
Two early detection alerts (motor and bearing failures) within the first six months
$300,000 reduction in lost revenue in the first five months from early detection

Sustainability Impact: Reliable Assets Lead to Reduced Downtime & Emissions

By utilizing Digital Reliability Centered Maintenance (DRCM) to reduce unplanned equipment downtime you improve product quality and increase productivity.

By leveraging machine learning to predict equipment failures before they happen you reduce equipment down time while improving equipment reliability.

Utilizing condition based maintenance verses planned leads to less resources needed to maintain equipment.
