In many ways, maintenance engineering has been ahead of the curve in the adoption of connected technology such as Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) devices that provide the data on which condition-based monitoring systems function.
Our survey, in partnership with the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE), shows that organisations are benefiting from digital technology. Almost 9 out of 10 of the 683 respondents in the UK and Ireland that took part said they were using Computerised Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) or Enterprise Asset Management to monitor and manage maintenance.
