What is Asset Performance Management Software?

Plex Asset Performance Management software is a system that helps manufacturers monitor and analyze the health and performance of machines and equipment to deliver optimal uptime, throughput and maintenance planning. It combines process, operational and machine-level data with analytics and real-time visibility so organizations can detect issues early, support predictive maintenance and make informed decisions to reduce unplanned downtime.

Benefits of Plex Asset Performance Management (APM)

Maximize Uptime

Eliminate unplanned downtime and hit your production targets

Use real-time data collection and built-in analytics to capture and analyze live data on machine health and performance, compare machines against a desired state, and generate early notifications of potential disruption to reduce overtime labor, scrap, emergency maintenance costs and over P&L impacts.

Reduce Machine Failure

Improve your ability to identify and help prevent machine health incidents

Visualize and trend analytics to support accurate and timely diagnosis of failure causing conditions using historical data storage. Contextualize machine activity with details on specific operations to drive predictive maintenance using contextual traceability.

Consolidate Data Silos

Manage all your data in one system to create context and connected workflows

Contextualize a combination of OT data from the plant floor and IT data from Plex MES to create single view and support informed accurate decisions. Create and manage maintenance requests in MES or CMMS system directly from Plex APM for more efficient management of asset performance.

Aligned with extreme precision to the pillars of Smart Manufacturing.

Asset Performance Management FAQs

 

What are the key features of asset performance management software?

Asset performance management software includes real-time asset monitoring, predictive and preventive maintenance capabilities, condition-based alerts and advanced analytics. It also centralizes operational and machine data to provide visibility into asset health, performance trends and maintenance workflows.

What are the key benefits of asset performance management software?

APM software helps reduce unplanned downtime, extend asset lifespan and lower maintenance costs by enabling proactive, data-driven decision-making. By improving reliability and optimizing maintenance strategies, organizations can increase overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) and operational efficiency across the enterprise.

What is the difference between APM and ALM?

Asset performance management focuses on monitoring, maintaining, and optimizing physical assets in real time to improve reliability and uptime. Asset Lifecycle Management (ALM) manages an asset’s entire lifecycle—from design and procurement to operation and retirement—covering a wider scope beyond day-to-day performance.
