About OSISoft PI System

OSIsoft PI System, now part of AVEVA, is the industry-leading operational data management platform designed for large-scale industrial enterprises. The system collects, stores, and analyzes real-time operational data from diverse sources including PLCs, SCADA systems, historians, and IoT devices. With over 225 pre-built interfaces, PI System enables seamless integration across legacy and modern infrastructure. Organizations leverage PI System to gain comprehensive visibility into operations, identify inefficiencies, predict equipment failures, and optimize resource utilization. The platform supports millions of data points per second with sub-second latency, ensuring critical operational decisions are informed by current, accurate information. AiDOOS enhances PI System deployment by providing expert implementation services, ensuring rapid time-to-value, optimized data architecture, and governance frameworks that maximize ROI while minimizing operational risk.

Challenges It Solves

  • Industrial operations generate massive volumes of disconnected data from legacy and modern systems without unified visibility
  • Lack of real-time operational insights leads to reactive maintenance, equipment downtime, and inefficient resource allocation
  • Data silos across departments prevent holistic decision-making and limit optimization opportunities across the value chain
  • Complex integration requirements with 225+ potential data sources create implementation and maintenance challenges
