The data provided by modern ("smart") machines and devices is versatile: In addition to simple parameters, such as operating hours or fault messages, extended data, e.g., about the location, condition, required consumables or upcoming maintenance, is often transmitted. An intelligent asset or fleet management solution processes this data into useful information, thus helping to increase the efficiency and reliability of products and processes and offering the following benefits:
- Improved degree of capacity utilization
- Interconnection of assets among each other
- Transparency of all assets, machines, etc.
- Overview of asset locations, localization
- Reduced losses due to theft
- Reduced costs due to a more efficient planning
- Improved spare parts and consumables management
- Possibility for software updates
