𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵-𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘀 𝗮 𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 The Dutch high-tech sector is a powerhouse, but a looming threat could stall its growth: inefficient maintenance practices. The industry experiences a collaboration gap between OEMs and customers hindering data sharing and proactive maintenance. This can lead to costly downtime caused by traditional reactive and scheduled maintenance. The solution lies in predictive maintenance, a proactive approach that leverages data to anticipate equipment failures, minimizing downtime and optimizing costs. At Sioux Technologies, our multidisciplinary teams of mechanical and electronical engineers, data scientists, and software developers understand the challenges of the high-tech industry. We can help bridge the gap between OEMs and customers through, among other things, our extensive knowledge of safely collecting and interpreting data for efficient maintenance strategies, especially predictive maintenance. Together, we can build sustainable business models and propel the Dutch high-tech industry to new heights. Sioux Research Engineer Raymon van Dinter dives into maintenance policies and the challenges of implementing an Asset-as-a-Service business model in his latest research for Sioux Technologies and Wageningen University & Research.
