关于客户
Hydrite Chemical Co. 成立于 1929 年，总部位于威斯康星州布鲁克菲尔德，是美国最大的化学品及相关服务提供商之一。该公司在 14 个地点拥有 850 多名员工。作为一家领先的美国化学品生产商，Hydrite 专注于为其他化学公司进行代工生产，因此经常接受外部审计和检查。然而，随着业务的快速增长，越来越难以清晰了解其不同站点的资产、流程、政策和许可证。
挑战
Hydrite Chemical Co. 是美国一家领先的化学品生产商，由于业务的快速增长，该公司面临着诸多挑战。该公司发现，越来越难以清晰地了解其不同站点的资产、流程、政策和许可证。他们所有的站点都开发了自己的资产管理方式，主要使用电子表格、日历提醒和小型数据库等简单工具。如果没有一套一致的系统，很难在两个不同的站点之间比较同一件事。由于缺乏标准化和可视性，该公司很难证明其符合当前法律法规，这需要监管机构和客户的定期审计。
解决方案
Hydrite 决定实施 IBM Maximo Asset Management，它是 IBM Watson IoT 产品组合的一部分。该解决方案用资产管理平台取代了基于纸张的跟踪工作订单、库存和采购的方法，该平台有助于控制支出并促进合规性。借助 Maximo 的资产层次结构，Hydrite 现在可以跟踪资产，并从单个数据库安排维修、更换和检查。Hydrite 还使用 Maximo 来跟踪监管义务，并通过创建“合规日历”来确保其所有许可证和许可都是最新的。此外，Hydrite 还使用 Maximo 来确保对质量至关重要的实验室仪器进行正确校准。

Advanced Elastomer Systems Upgrades Production
In order to maintain its share of the international market for thermoplastic elastomers AES recently expanded its Florida plant by adding a new production line. While the existing lines were operating satisfactorily using a PROVOX distributed control system with traditional analog I/O, AES wanted advanced technology on the new line for greater economy, efficiency, and reliability. AES officials were anxious to get this line into production to meet incoming orders, but two hurricanes slowed construction.

Field Device Asset Management For Chemical Company in China
Chinese chemical subsidiary of multinational corporation serves customers throughout the world. Sales offices and research and technology centers are strategically located to provide rapid response to customer requests. Just two workers were assigned to maintain thousands of intelligent instruments in three production units, so they could do little more than react to device issues as they appeared. This costly maintenance method inevitably led to unexpected downtime when a critical instrument failed. Plant management recognized the need to change from reactive to predictive maintenance for all assets, including instruments and control valves, but help was needed in implementing such a technology-based initiative.
