Description

GridBeats™ APM uses predictive and prescriptive diagnostics to reduce downtime and maintenance costs of primary assets. Built on a microservices-based architecture, it offers a suite of software services that are each configured and run as a managed and isolated container. Services can be deployed and run into a distributed cluster to improve system scalability, resiliency, and performance of more demanding processing.

Used on its own or with other solutions, GridBeats™ APM is an easy platform to maintain, upgrade, and integrate with client systems.

Predicting Failures, Preventing Outages

The asset reliability module contains the Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) for each asset type. The failure mode associated with an asset risk can be visualized as well as the preventive and corrective actions that are integrated in other modules of GridBeats™ APM.

Increasing Asset Availability, Improving Replacement Planning

GridBeats™ APM Health accelerates time-to-value by standardizing the collection, integration, modelling, and analysis of ubiquitous data into a single, unified view.

Through a single dashboard with fleetwide view, problematic equipment is rapidly identified, and asset replacement and maintenance priorities are proposed using a library of 100+ asset models that are manufacturer agnostic. Users can drill down from fleet view to health details for a single asset.

Prioritizing Maintenance and Replacement

This module provides a common methodology to compare repair and replacement projects. It uses a risk-based approach to conduct analysis of individual or group of equipment considering the criticality of each asset. The analysis helps prioritize replacement and maintenance activities.
