With increased global supply chains, raw material price volatility, increased compliance, requirements, and rapidly evolving workforce, organizations are looking at their operations (and how to reduce costs) more than ever before. Fundamentally, organizations often lack not only visibility but also predictability into their assets' health and performance. Maximizing asset productivity and ensuring that the associated processes are as efficient as possible are key aspects for organizations striving to gain those strong financial returns. IBM Predictive Maintenance and Quality V1.0 helps enable organizations to:

• Monitor, maintain, and optimize assets for better availability, utilization, and performance. You can use it to help gain better      visibility into the asset via real-time monitoring, mobile, decision management, and predictive analytics capabilities.
• Help in predicting asset failure so you can work toward optimizing quality and supply chain processes. You can use it as one of your tools to help predict asset or part failure by extending predictive analytics from the asset to its associated processes, such as quality and inventory, and provide insights for both assets and processes.
• Remove guesswork from the decision-making process. You can optimize decisions within resource constraints by visualizing issues, and help enable quick and accurate execution of recommended actions, which add to the key goal of maximizing outcomes for the organization.
