Understanding Asset Performance Management (APM)
Asset Performance Management (APM) is crucial for businesses that heavily rely on machinery and technology. It encompasses processes to monitor, assess, maintain, and fund assets efficiently. With the integration of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and data science, modern APM combines traditional asset management practices with advanced technologies to enhance equipment reliability, maintenance, and overall business performance.
Core Features of APM
APM software leverages data management, predictive analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to provide various core features. These include automatic discovery and mapping of assets, end-to-end observability of applications, mobile and desktop monitoring, analysis of performance problems, integration of tools, and business KPI analysis. These capabilities aid in optimizing user experience and maximizing productivity of employees.
Business Benefits of APM
The demand for APM software has been on the rise, with global spending exceeding $2.3 billion. APM directly benefits businesses by improving key metrics like uptime, mean time to repair, asset longevity, quality, and safety. Increased uptime and efficiency lead to better revenue, margin, customer satisfaction, and return on assets. APM also extends the asset ecosystem to leverage smart devices, augmented reality, and mobility, enhancing business processes and collaboration.
APM With IIoT and Data Science
Modern APM solutions integrate IIoT and data science to provide actionable insights into asset reliability. By using data analytics, businesses can predict equipment failure, mitigate risks, optimize asset performance, and enhance maintenance strategies. The Digital Twin model, supported by APM software, allows for accurate predictive maintenance, shifting from reactive to proactive approaches in managing assets.
