PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS SOLVES PROBLEMS BEFORE THEY EXIST

Leverage performance data to anticipate and prevent failures.

With history comes experience, and with experience comes insight. That’s what makes your service tech with 20 years of tenure so valuable—the tech has seen and dealt with so many and varied issues over the years that oftentimes problems are diagnosed immediately or spotted before they actually happen.

That degree of comprehension, while valuable, takes quite a long time to obtain. Which of course would make being able to acquire that knowledge in a shorter amount of time, and share it across your entire team, even more valuable.

Consider what it means to ‘learn’. Introductory information is gathered and a baseline of familiarity is established; this is the starting point of the learning process. 

More, and more nuanced, information is discovered, and conceptual connections are created—as this process continues, familiarity evolves into understanding, which evolves into comprehension, which evolves into synthesization. This is the stage at which our service tech obtains those preternatural detection abilities.

And that right there is exactly what the Sigsense platform does...but in days and weeks instead of decades.

Once integrated with your system, the AI powering the platform immediately starts gathering performance data for all your equipment. The longer it runs, the more and better it learns about your equipment; eventually, it comes to know your equipment so well that it can pick up on the slightest performance anomalies. 

By analyzing those deviations against the entire body of collected data, the platform can even make intelligent predictions regarding what those anomalies actually mean. Or, put simply, it can find and call attention to problems before they cause failures.

Aside from the obvious benefit of knowing about potential problems before they exist, those predictions also allow you to accurately triage issues. So those that require immediate attention can get it, while those that can wait allow you the flexibility to attend to them when convenient. And even better, this wealth of experience is available to everyone on your team right away.

Issue detection, understanding, and advice—all in one platform.
