Product overview

In Maximo Asset Health Insights, you can create a baseline scale to assess the status of an asset. By monitoring asset factors, such as condition-based maintenance, asset costs, and performance, you can see when an asset is failing so that you can make improvements quickly.

By using IBM Bluemix®, you can register devices to collect data from sensors and set up rules in IBM Watson™ IoT Platform to analyze data and perform preventive maintenance and corrective maintenance. You can analyze indications of asset health, such as temperature sensor readings, in more detail.
