Legacy assets present an enormous opportunity
Any company producing equipment for the industrial sector has a legacy, or installed base. In the industrial sector the life of an industrial asset can be anything from 10 to 40 years. During that period, depending on the asset, the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) excluding initial investment adds up to 70-90%. This includes energy, spare parts, maintenance etc. It does not take into account additional secondary costs, such as the cost to sales from downtime, failures caused to other assets and other ripple effects. This is why the installed base of industrial assets is regarded by many as the biggest opportunity for the Industrial IoT. The portential savings are enoromous, and so are the revenue opportunities.The Distence solution is designed to be a flexible, focused and robust approach to taking those legacy assets fast and efficiently into control, trusted by global players in the energy business. Our goal is to help our customers get closer to their customers, to increase transparency, optimization and control of installed assets. Edge-computing is here and ready to serve the business and optimize that TCO.
