Industrial Asset Intelligence — Technical Articles
Bilingual writing that connects data and damage mechanisms to decisions in EAM, RBI, PHM and industrial AI agents.
Four topics I write about
Reliability
RCM, FMEA, RCA, reliability culture and lessons from the plant floor.
EAM and Maximo
Asset hierarchy, master data, work management and running a CMMS.
Data and KPIs
Maintenance data pipelines, dashboards and reporting for leadership.
AI agents in industry
Using LLMs and agents for engineering work, under control.
