An Artificial Intelligence Platform for Asset Management Contributes to Better Decision‐making Tools for Operations, Maintenance, and Utility Management

Abstract

An Artificial Intelligence system was developed and implemented for water, wastewater, and reuse plants to improve management of sensors, short and long-term maintenance plans, asset and investment management plans. It is based on an integrated approach to capture data from different computer systems and files. It adds a layer of intelligence to the data. It serves as a repository of key current and future operations and maintenance conditions that a plant needs have knowledge of. With this information, it can simulate the configuration of processes and assets for those conditions to improve or optimize operations, maintenance and asset management, using the IViewOps (Intelligent View of Operations) model. Based on the optimization through model runs, it is able to create output files that can feed data to other systems and inform the staff regarding optimal solutions to the conditions experienced or anticipated in the future.

Asset maintenance optimisation approaches in the chemical and process industries – A review

“…Using AI or Big Data analytics for risk evaluation is the emerging field for risk-based maintenance management. Sen et al (2018) had recently proposed an AI platform to facilitate asset management in water, wastewater and reuse plant. The equipment criticality scores, coupled with risks reduction metrics and the probability of failure, allows the proper planning of maintenance.…”

A Legal and Ethical Review of Artificial Intelligence Technology in Public Safety Management

“…Digital technology refers to the digitization of various affairs in public management and the collection of massive affairs in public management [2]. With the explosive growth of mobile data and more and more advanced data collection solutions in society, creating a digital model of public affairs can provide great reference and assistance for public management [3]. Although artificial intelligence is a new cutting-edge scientific and technological achievement in recent years, artificial intelligence has been widely used in the field of social and public management, in social life, public decisionmaking, economic management, education management, and other aspects of the more in-depth application, and constantly used in the innovation of social and public administration, and the current work and life of the public and artificial intelligence have been inextricably linked [4][5][6].…”
