Content

Major Features & Enhancements :

Assignment of custom strategies to locations

  • Assign reliability strategies to locations as well as assets
  • Use a dedicated Locations tab aligned with the asset assignment experience
  • Support organizations that manage maintenance at the functional location level

Component and mechanism management

  • Rename and delete components and mechanisms within the failure mode hierarchy
  • Enforce hierarchy integrity by preventing deletion when dependent records exist
  • Provide clear guidance and consistent workflows for managing relationships

Improved strategy copy experience from library to custom

  • Copy all relevant fields when creating custom strategies from library strategies
  • Ensure consistency between library and custom strategies while reducing manual rework

Expanded visibility of reliability strategy library fields

  • Surface key SME-driven fields directly within the strategy workflow
  • Provide additional context such as common failure causes, monitoring opportunities, and maintenance risks
  • Enhance mitigation details with primary failure modes addressed and progression to failure
  • Reduce reliance on external references by embedding critical information in the UI

Associating failure modes and mitigation activities from action details

  • Link failure modes and mitigation activities directly from the Action Details view
  • Use multiselect lookup dialogs to streamline association
  • Maintain consistency with existing selection patterns and prevent duplicate links

Job plan integration for mitigation activities

  • Associate job plans with mitigation activities, including a defined primary job plan
  • Create new job plans directly from mitigation activities with prefilled context
  • Generate job plan tasks from actions and support further editing in the Job Plan application
  • Provide visibility into linked job plans and their downstream usage

Preventive maintenance (PM) support for mitigation activities

  • Associate existing PMs with mitigation activities to align strategies with execution
  • Select and manage a primary master PM for each mitigation activity
  • Create new PMs or master PMs directly from mitigation activities with prepopulated values
  • Leverage job plan and asset relationships to surface relevant PMs
  • Improve identification of coverage gaps in maintenance programs

Multiple problem and cause code association for failure modes

  • Assign multiple problem and cause codes to a single failure mode
  • Support selection of valid problem–cause combinations based on the chosen failure classification
  • Improve accuracy and flexibility in capturing failure information
  • Enable richer analysis and better alignment with organizational failure coding standards

Configurable risk matrices for failure analysis

  • Define custom severity, probability, and detectability scales
  • Create and manage reusable risk matrices aligned with RCM methodologies
  • Evaluate failure modes using matrix-driven scoring and automated RPN calculation
  • Support both advanced (matrix-based) and existing evaluation approaches
  • Improve prioritization through context-driven risk assessment

Meter integration for condition-based maintenance

  • Link meter groups to strategies and associate meters with failure modes
  • Support both time-based and meter-based maintenance intervals, or a combination of both
  • Enable meter-based frequency in actions, mitigation activities, and PM creation
  • Strengthen traceability between condition monitoring data and failure analysis

Implementation dashboard for strategy coverage and execution

  • Access the dashboard to track strategy implementation across assets and locations
  • Visualize failure mode coverage with protection levels based on PM effectiveness
  • Identify gaps, recommended mitigation activities, and coverage improvements
  • Track mitigation activity status based on PM and job plan execution
  • Differentiate between tracked and untracked PMs
  • Enable creation of PMs directly from recommendations
  • Support filtering, drill-down analysis, and ignore options for focused decision-making

AI-assisted strategy creation and refinement

  • Use generative AI to assist with creating mitigation activity long descriptions
  • Generate strategy actions using AI to accelerate strategy development
  •  Apply AI-assisted filtering of actions within failure modes to identify the most relevant activities
