BlueCielo releases asset management module

BlueCielo has released its InnoCielo asset management module, which is designed to close the gap between maintenance and engineering departments.

BlueCielo ECM Solutions has released InnoCielo Asset Management Module 2008.

It features upgraded version support for InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise and Maximo.

The InnoCielo Asset Management Module enables InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise users to expand their engineering content management into a full asset information management system.

BlueCielo said that many organizations have been implementing enterprise asset management (EAM) software to control the routine maintenance of production assets.

BlueCielo opined that enterprise asset management cannot reach its full potential without the proper management of asset-related technical documentation, such as drawings and technical specifications.

The company told manufacturingtalk that the prompt availability of accurate technical asset information is of critical importance in order to resume production as quickly as possible when stoppages occur.

* All technical assets managed - the InnoCielo Asset Management Module connects EAM environments like Datastream, FAMIS, Maximo, SAP PM and Ultimo to InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise.

The module manages all technical assets such as pumps, vessels, process lines and so on.

It also manages the relationship with their relevant technical documents.

For example, when a work order for a pump needs to be written, the relevant technical documentation, based on the asset number of the pump, is immediately available to operations personnel.

The module can also be used in combination with the InnoCielo Shop Floor Client.

It provides operations and maintenance staff access to assets and related technical documentation.

InnoCielo Shop Floor Client requires only a PC with an internet browser to provide technical asset information to operations and maintenance without integration with an EAM system.

InnoCielo Asset Management Module 2008 is now available in English and German.

It is compatible with InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise 2008 as well as 2006 and 2007.

It also features upgraded version support for Maximo, for version 6.x, as well as versions 4.x and 5.x.

The InnoCielo Asset Management Module is employed together with InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise by companies in multiple vertical markets worldwide such as BASF, Gerdau Ameristeel, Met-Mex Penoles, Sund and Baelt and more.

IT director at Gerdau Ameristeel, Kevin Smith, said he believed that the InnoCielo Asset Management Module will bridge the gap between Maintenance and Engineering.

He thought that the immediate access to relevant technical information will help the company to decrease unplanned process downtime, thereby increasing its productivity.

He added: "I believe this module, along with InnoCielo Meridian Enterprise, will aid in Gerdau Ameristeel's continued growth and success in the years to come".
