CHICAGO, Feb. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- Uptake announced that it has signed a
partnership agreement with Wipro Limited (NYSE: WIT), (BSE:
507685), (NSE: WIPRO), a leading global information technology,
consulting and business process company, to deliver industrial
intelligence for the utilities, chemical processing, and oil and
gas industries. The partnership merges Uptake's advanced analytics
software with Wipro's consulting and implementation services to
equip asset-intensive operators with the digital tools for
optimized maintenance and predictive analytics.
"Integrating multiple data sources and generating actionable
insights are essential for businesses to grow and become
intelligent enterprises. By combining Wipro's experience in
reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) and asset performance
management (APM) with Uptake's proprietary Asset Strategy
Library® (ASL®), we
will help heavy processing and energy customers optimize their
inspection and maintenance processes. We look forward to working
with our joint customers to realize improvements in safety, asset
reliability, risk mitigation and reduce overall cost," said
Arnab Sarkar, Global Head, Energy
Manufacturing Practice, Wipro Limited.
The Asset Strategy Library (ASL), the world's largest source of
asset failure modes and maintenance strategies, covers 800+ of the
most common critical assets with 58,000+ universal failure modes
and 178,000+ as-found reportable conditions. The ASL delivers
insights into how and why critical assets and their components
fail, and the preventative maintenance (PM) strategies to prevent
failures. The ASL, and its associated equipment strategies
generated through Uptake PM Strategy Explorer, give operators
access to expert-curated recommendations and best practices. Both
components, in turn, power the maintenance strategy engine, Uptake
Compass, which automatically cleans work order data to optimize
maintenance programs.
"Asset-heavy companies are facing complex challenges in legacy
OT & IT systems, sustainability issues, and skill shortages
that can be managed with predictive maintenance," said Andrew Soignier, Vice President of Product
Development at Uptake. "Uptake's partnership with Wipro will
facilitate the easeful adoption and use of our advanced analytics
products by corporations around the world."
Uptake's partnership with Wipro comes as the Industrial AI
company recently announced its acquisition of ShookIOT, a leader in
cloud-native data integration and integrity, as well as its
partnership with Reliability Center, Inc. (RCI), a provider of root
cause analysis investigation software.
