Data Enablement


Data
Enablement

We are avid proponents of data enablement—making the right decisions at the right time to drive improvements in your operations. Collecting the data is step one; however, turning that data into actionable information requires process knowledge, data analysis, modeling, and visualization. By using modern approaches to data analysis and reporting, combined with the overall user experience, we enable your data to tell better stories. Your data should be able to speak to equipment effectiveness and bring confidence to your production demands and maintenance requirements. It should allow you to take a deep dive into specific use cases—determining if and where process inefficiencies are costing money and lost capacity. In short, data should be exciting and relevant.

WE LOOK FORWARD TO BECOMING YOUR GUIDE TO THE NEXT ADVENTURE—OPTIMIZING YOUR PRODUCTION OPERATIONS TO TAKE A FRESH LOOK AT ALL YOUR DATA SILOS AND EXPLORE WHAT OPPORTUNITIES ARE IN REACH.
Enterprise Historian

More clients are adopting enterprise historians as a key part of their Industry 4.0 initiatives, creating a centralized repository for data across the organization. Our experts can help design, develop, and deploy an enterprise historian, ensuring safe and secure data collection and identifying opportunities for better decision-making across the organization.

Data Aggregation & Contextualization

Traditional manufacturing data collection focuses on sequential data, but a broader data set is required for today’s challenges. Our team can identify and collect both sequential and non-sequential data from various sources, allowing for a more complete picture. By capturing metadata and leveraging analytics, we can provide valuable insights and help you drive optimization.

Advanced Analytics

Manufacturing plants have struggled to leverage their process data to drive true operational improvements. Our experienced team of process and data professionals can help identify and collect the necessary data, develop analytics, and provide decision support for improved performance in areas such as efficiency, reliability, quality, and sustainability.

Visualization

Sometimes the information you need is right in front of you but buried under a lot of other data. We can help you create dynamic dashboards and visualizations to enable better decision making. By understanding your needs, we can ensure that operators, engineers, technicians, and management are always up to date with relevant information.

Reporting

We can support your management and compliance reporting needs, to ensure you produce high-quality products with maximum efficiency, by automating the data capture and reporting process. By establishing connections to plant systems, we can create comprehensive reports, freeing plant personnel to focus on improving operations.

Asset Performance Management

Our asset professionals can help you balance production and sustainability goals while avoiding unplanned downtime. We understand asset failure modes, how to identify them, and how to optimize performance to meet demands efficiently and safely. This enables better decision-making by providing insights into asset conditions to meet production targets.

CMMS Integration & Workflow Optimization

Our team of reliability professionals can identify tools, optimize alarms, develop work processes, and integrate the solution into whatever tool drives your work. CMMS integration ensures meaningful alerts, while work processes are captured and tracked through completion, improving asset reliability as part of an overall proactive maintenance program.

Cloud Enablement

Our goal is to create operational resilience via a cloud-connected architecture that monitors networks for accurate, actionable intelligence, and protection for integrated OT and IoT security, at scale.

Apperture Data Workshop

Meeting the challenges of improving unit operations requires the use of OT data that spans multiple departments. Through a Data Workshop format, we first get the right people in the room, dive into pain points, find symptoms of variability, and then discuss how your data can drive analytics use cases. Armed with a sound plan that prioritizes high impact scenarios, our team leverages cutting edge technologies, like Seeq, to speed up your data analytics journey, so you can spend more time coming up with brilliant ideas.
