Pedigree Technologies, a provider of web-based solutions that connect and automate sensor-enabled physical assets for supply chain, fleet, and maintenance applications in the energy, field services, food services, convenience store, and petrochemical industries as well as the U.S. Department of Defense, unveiled its first cloud-based maintenance application, OneView Maintenance Manager.

 “This is a powerful application for any company that owns, leases or services mobile equipment,” said Alex Warner, CEO at Pedigree Technologies. “We are moving companies from preventative to predictive maintenance, which extends the life of capital equipment and lowers the cost of service,” added Warner.

Pedigree’s OneView Maintenance Manager is capable of combining current and past equipment health data with maintenance history to schedule maintenance work by its owners, operators and service providers. It is said to use real-time monitoring and historical data of sensor-enabled equipment to schedule maintenance. At the same time, the Maintenance Manager application centralizes maintenance records and work history in a single repository that remains tied to the equipment.

With this, equipment operators can reduce equipment downtime, increase efficiencies, prevent equipment failures and even improve fuel efficiency (MPG) by as much as 25 percent, said the company in a press release.

As stated, Pedigree’s OneView Maintenance Manager is a turnkey solution for equipment monitoring, including cloud-based application software, tracking and monitoring hardware, as well as IT support. The solution provides a significant cost reduction over traditional client-server maintenance packages. Pedigree’s application gives service providers the ability to create new maintenance and repair contracts, and allows operations managers and equipment operators to effectively monitor and assess the performance of their equipment.

 “The Maintenance Manager application highlights our focus on closing the service loop, which is valuable to both the equipment owner and service contractor,” Ian McPherson, vice president of Sales and Marketing at Pedigree said.

 “This also ensures that service and maintenance records are tied to the piece of equipment and available to everyone instead of remaining locked in the service companies’ record management system,” McPherson added.

The release of OneView’s Maintenance Manager is said to underscore Pedigree’s commitment to developing solutions that allow companies of all sizes to improve operational efficiencies, reduce costs and increase customer profits without significant investments in infrastructure or technology resources.
