挑战
DC Water 是一家供水和污水处理公用事业公司，运营着世界上最大的废水处理厂，并管理着一支由约 635 辆车辆组成的车队以及另外 1,300 件一般资产。该公司在管理如此庞大且多样化的车队方面面临着众多挑战。这些挑战包括与五个具有不同集体谈判协议的不同工会打交道、管理旧基础设施以及定制车队以适应业务运营。该公司还努力确保正确的车辆按时上路，正确的工具掌握在正确的人手中，并且所有技术人员和操作员都与组织的目标保持一致。技术的集成对于克服这些挑战至关重要，但改变用户的思维方式，将技术视为提高效率和效果的工具也同样重要。
解决方案
DC Water 采用远程信息处理和船载技术来更有效地管理其车队。该公司为多种产品创建了一个测试平台，以确定如何将它们最好地集成到系统中。目标是找到精通业务、适应性强、可扩展并提供实时报告以监控 KPI 的解决方案。该公司还专注于异常管理并了解其痛点，以有效地使用这些系统中的数据。优先考虑对业务重要的数据类型，例如水管破裂和其他失败或成功的关键点，是该策略的关键部分。 DC Water 还根据供应商对组织需求的响应能力以及带来新想法和创新的能力对其供应商进行评分。该公司还在探索移动应用和传感器，以实现更快、更安全的操作。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
