Challenges within Analytics and Infrastructure   

One of the largest challenges facing process driven industries today is not a lack of data, but a lack of information. Data is data. It is rows and columns of values that individually, on face value, are nothing more than values. The challenge industry faces is how to add context and analyses to those data points to create useful information that can be used to drive operational performance optimization.

Service Description 

The Dexcent Analytics and Information team is obsessed with data. Bolstered by the Dexcent Technical Advisory Council, the team is dedicated to turning your data into useful information. Starting with the data itself, Dexcent provides Management services – from database design to the final analyses, Dexcent gives you more. Whether it is simple A/B calculations, or complex fixed and mobile asset condition monitoring algorithms to support of maintenance and reliability programs, our goal is to tell you more than something is wrong.

The Dexcent prescriptive over predictive approach to analytic outcomes will tell you more. Unlike predictive analyses which indicate something is wrong or a failure is imminent, Dexcent Prescriptive Outcomes provide the tag details needed for triage, an estimated failure point, what parts are likely required, and, for planning purposes, how long the repair typically requires.
