Utilities Monitoring

Production utilities monitoring - gathering, visualization and reporting of data about the consumption of production utilities (water, electric energy, compressed air, heat, technical gases, wastewater, etc.) that directly originate from measuring instruments, control systems and other IT systems.

Key benefits:

• Potential for reduction of costs due to the active utilities consumption management and selection of suitable tariffs for a company
• More even consumption of utilities over time
• An option to compute a real share of utilities costs in the cost of the finished product
• A possibility to monitor the current consumption of utilities regarding supply limits with an option to be alarmed in the case of a rapid increase in the consumption levels which allows to avoid high penalties for consumption in excess of limits
• Improvement in the quality of utilities
• An accurate tool for payment and complaint management regarding utilities
• No need to involve people for the preparation of balance sheets and reports
• Better knowledge about where energy is wasted
• Capability to communicate and exchange data with the existing plant equipment and applications
