As the marketplace continues to strain operating and maintenance budgets, organizations must
continue to adapt and meet new challenges. Real-time asset management is one adaptation that
provides immediate success. In general, there is an immediate need to move from reactive
maintenance procedures and practices to a more strategic approach. OPC connectivity is the
vehicle to achieve this goal. It provides the integration of real-time systems to corporate CMMS
applications, improving PM programs, enabling true CBM implementations, and providing easy
tracking and monitoring of soft assets. OPC is a standard technology platform from which an
organization can build real-time applications and practices, ultimately leading to an immediate
impact on the bottom line.
