Why use predictive management software?

Facility and operations managers in every industry are challenged by high turnover and limited maintenance budgets. But managing your assets doesn't have to be complicated.

Predictive management solutions make it simple to monitor critical assets — tracking temperature, voltage, airflow and more. Then, automatically generate work orders when anomalies are detected, so you can act before a failure occurs and extend the life of your assets.

What can predictive management software do for you?

Our predictive management solution has everything you need to monitor assets in real-time, detect issues early and trigger the right maintenance action automatically. 

Automate condition monitoring

Optimize resources and save time by removing the need to inspect assets physically with automated asset condition monitoring. Sensor devices report operational parameters like temperature, pressure and humidity in near real-time.

Leverage historical data

Identify hotspots of repetitive failure to make tactical decisions around asset maintenance and management. Access time series data on our intuitive platform to understand the functional condition of your assets over time.

Get alerts and notifications

Receive customized, threshold-based alerts for anomalies in operational parameters — before asset condition deteriorates. Plus get management notifications through email and text to notify staff when an anomaly is detected.

Avoid asset failure

Take corrective action sooner: Receive a work order request when an anomaly is detected. This triggers the maintenance management flow and helps your team avoid asset failure by taking and recording corrective action.

Frequently asked questions

How does Siemens handle IoT monitoring?

Siemens’ Smart Assets IoT solution, an add-on to Asset Essentials, uses sensors and devices to collect real-time data on physical assets like machinery, equipment or vehicles. Enriched data and actionable insights help teams monitor asset performance, conditions and locations, enabling predictive maintenance to anticipate asset failures and extend asset lifespans through proactive maintenance.

How does IoT improve asset tracking and location?

IoT devices attached to assets transmit their location data in real-time. This allows organizations to quickly find equipment, prevent loss and optimize logistics, reducing search times and improving asset inventory accuracy.

What industries use remote monitoring to accelerate their predictive maintenance?
How does IoT improve maintenance efficiency?

By setting custom thresholds like vibration, temperature, pressure, humidity, voltage or airflow, the system can automatically generate work orders when it detects anomalies, so your maintenance team can intervene before a minor issue becomes a catastrophic failure. Access to real-time asset data means better maintenance scheduling, parts availability and resource allocation.

Is IoT difficult to implement?

It doesn't have to be. Siemens works with you to make implementation seamless and scalable to meet your specific needs, giving you the ability to start small and grow over time. The core approach is straightforward: monitor assets, set thresholds, automate alerts.

How does IoT support asset condition monitoring?

IoT sensors continuously monitor operational parameters like temperature, pressure and humidity in near real time, eliminating the need for physical inspections. Historical condition data surfaces patterns of repetitive failure, while customized threshold alerts notify staff and automatically generate work orders when anomalies are detected, enabling corrective action before failure occurs.
