SMARTS™ Used to Drive Compliance, Repair, and Maintenance Decisions
Sparkling Logic today announced from Building Business Capability 2014 that ABT Power Management, an innovative, fast-growing D.C. power company, is launching its Remote Auto Asset Management System (RAAMS) using SMARTS™ decision management platform. Mariner, a Sparkling Logic implementation partner and a leading business intelligence and analytics consultancy, developed the new application. RAAMS propels ABT’s unique power management offering into the Internet of Things (IoT) arena. This solution combines device/sensor data with the cloud and analytics to drive compliance, repair, and maintenance decisions. “SMARTS™ is uniquely suited to transform big data insights into action,” says Carole-Ann Matignon, Sparkling Logic, Co-Founder and CPO. “We are excited to be a part of ABT’s innovative power management solution.”
ABT engineers, furnishes, installs and maintains industrial battery and charging systems used in electric forklift trucks and automated guided vehicles. These vehicles are used at large distribution centers and manufacturing facilities. Over 10 years ago, ABT pioneered an offering called GuaranteedPOWER®. This service bundles equipment and maintenance into a fixed monthly power fee. Customers benefit from a reliable uptime at a predictable cost. As a result, customers don’t have to worry about unplanned expenses associated with batteries and charging systems.
Prioritizing Maintenance and Repair Based on Sensor Data
RAAMS takes ABT’s GuaranteedPOWER® offering to a new level. By proactively monitoring asset utilization, ABT can identify and resolve equipment and compliance issues much faster. Battery and charger assets are monitored remotely via sensors that send data via the Internet to ABT’s local server. “Previously, our engineers and account managers would review reports based on this sensor data, said Mike Shemancik, ABT CIO. “Monitoring utilization and prioritizing repair work took time. Now, using SMARTS™, we have achieved near real-time analysis of this data and are able to respond immediately to conditions that need attention. The SMARTS™ interface is easy and intuitive enough to allow our engineering staff to create and maintain the rules themselves.”
