Optimizing electrical systems through IIoT

摘要

Logistics companies such as FedEx and UPS have tracked and optimized assets at an enterprise level for years and have invested billions of dollars doing so. These enterprise-level analytics had been beyond the reach of many other industries because the benefits did not justify the investment. This is changing. Today, a wide variety of applications and industries are able to make the case for advanced analytics to optimize their assets and improve their bottom line. With infrastructure aging and equipment running on older technology, things aren't operating as they should be. It takes additional manpower to keep operations status quo and to react to problems when they occur. Companies have been digitally monitoring and controlling high-value assets for decades. There still is an enormous fleet of electrical equipment that is offline and disconnected from an operation.
