a social network has changed how we use and value photography in incredible ways. It has created new products,
businesses and trends, from Facebook, Instagram, and the
selfie to user-generated food images driving customers to
(or away from) restaurants the world over.
For manufacturing, integrated control and information
software similarly can be a game-changer, allowing collaboration capabilities to be relatively easily infused into legacy
assets. For example, new mobile capabilities are being intro-
The challenge for manufacturers and industrial operators is providing connections and collaboration that are
nearly frictionless for machine- and user-focused capabilities across operations without making major investments
in new equipment. Capital expenditures are limited across
many industries, requiring companies to focus their efforts
on connecting and optimizing their assorted mix of equipment thats already in place.
Think about digital photography. The move to digital
didnt change what makes a good photograph, but the ability
to easily tag an image to a location or another member of

ducted a survey meant to yield a better perspective on enterprise asset management (EAM) in industrial facilities.
In this column, well explore insights gained on specific
opportunities for users to achieve incremental improvements via predictive maintenance (PdM) and the use of
mobile devices and inventory management solutions. In
addition, well explore strategies for taking EAM systems
from reactive record-keeping tools to proactive planning
and execution systems.
Often, maintenance managers lament the lack of management attention to and the inability to obtain funding for
improving an EAM/FSM application. Like everyone else,
C-suite executives respond to metrics. Develop a business
case that connects high-level maintenance goals to the P&L
statement and balance sheet. As well see in the responses
to selected questions, good maintenance improves revenue,
costs, and margin while lowering risk.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on survey results and on other ARC research, we recommend the following actions for owner-operators:
When proposing projects to improve EAM and maintenance
systems, use a business case that connects the high-level
maintenance goals with the P&L statement and balance sheet.
Automate the business process so validated alerts in the
PdM system automatically generate a work order in the
EAM system for the maintenance planner to schedule.
A
dopt mobile devices and solutions for technicians to use
to improve data accuracy and enable the EAM system to
become a trusted, proactive planning and management tool.
D
eploy basic inventory management practices; specifically rationalize duplicate part numbers and update the
reorder points.
Move from the EAM being a historical reporting tool to
a proactive planning and execution management system to
reduce downtime and improve asset longevity.
