    Challenges facing asset-intensive organizations

    Many companies struggle to get the most value out of their assets over their lifetime. This is especially true for organizations in resource-intensive industries, like energy and utilities, oil and gas, manufacturing, or transportation. Unfortunately, further complicating the situation, technology infrastructures running assets are often incredibly complex. They tend to operate applications and data in silos which limits how effective cross-organizational operations and efficiencies can be.

    The reliability of the asset or equipment impacts asset performance and the quality of an organization’s products and services. As a result, the increased need for asset maintenance and management can directly impact customer satisfaction.

    Despite the challenges your organization faces, such as global commoditization, increased competition, and compliance with industry and government regulations, your organization’s products and services must constantly evolve to meet changing customer demands. Your organization must also be able to address other challenges, like green and sustainable operations, health and safety in the workplace, and higher costs of doing business.
