RtPM Assessment Workshop
An RtPM Infrastructure Assessment will help you assess the benefits and risks associated with migrating to the next generation of RtPM Tools and develop a roadmap for implementing the technology within your unique environment.
Why Would an RtPM Infrastructure Assessment Be of Interest?
If you are evaluating next generation RtPM products, the RtPM Infrastructure Assessment will allow you to:
- Understand the benefits of these technologies including improved efficiency, reliability, data visibility and collaboration.
- Provide insights how to best architect solutions with the RtPM platform to fit your needs.
- Produce a roadmap for implementing the RtPM technologies within your PI environment.
How Is the RtPM Infrastructure Assessment Different from an Engagement for Implementing the RtPM Technology?
The RtPM Infrastructure Assessment is the first step in evaluating products such as RtPortal, RtReports, Module Database, ProcessPoint and IT Monitor. The RtPM Infrastructure Assessment will result in a roadmap for implementing the RtPM product suite in your environment and will highlight the benefits your organization can realize by deploying these technologies. The RtPM Infrastructure Assessment will highlight the steps needed to implement the platform and will set the stage for an organization to create a detailed implementation plan.
The Value of an Omicron RtPM Assessment
Benefits include technology and business best practices for real-time data, peer group benchmarking and insight from early exposure to the RtPM tools stemming from our more than 13-year partnership with OSIsoft.
These benefits can be used to quickly turn initiatives into reality. Some examples include:
- KPI Dash Boards – Allows staff to review, at a glance, key performance indicators of the real-time system and determine how the business is performing against plan.
- Operations Alerts – Notifies users if values are out of specifications for reliability, operating goals or safety limits.
- Condition Based Maintenance – Allows data on equipment usage to help schedule maintenance activities.
- Quality Reporting – Allows companies to establish a tight control on quality release metrics and reduce product release timelines.
What Are the Benefits of the Next Generation RtPM Platform from OSIsoft?
RtPM provides multiple benefits including the ability to gather data, assign contextual reference, execute analysis and visualize data in portal & smart client environments. This allows companies to gain competitive advantages by leveraging the RtPM environment for:
- Visibility & Transparency - Allowing data to be seen and used by groups outside of process engineering.
- Agility – Leveraging the new set of tools from OSIsoft provides an agile real-time environment.
- Operational Excellence - The integration of real-time data with other outside data allows companies to build centers of Operational Excellence.
- Collaboration & Team Work – The new RtPM portal platform from OSIsoft allows companies to increase communication, capture installation knowledge and track key decision paths within the RtPM environment.
