UPTIME will enable manufacturing companies to reach Gartner's four levels of data analytics maturity for optimised decision making - each one building on the previous one: Monitor, Diagnose and Control, Manage, Optimize - aims to optimise in-service efficiency and contribute to increased accident mitigation capability by avoiding crucial breakdowns with significant consequences. UPTIME Components UPTIME_DETECT & UPTIME_PREDICT and UPTIME_ANALYZE aim to enhance the methodology framework for data processing and analytics. The key role for the UPTIME_DETECT and UPTIME_PREDICT components are data scientists who are in charge of developing, testing and deploying algorithmic calculations on data streams. In this way, the component is able to to identify the current condition of technical equipment and to give predictions. On the other hand, the UPTIME_ANALYZE is a data analytics engine driven by the need to leverage manufacturers’ legacy data and operational data related to maintenance, and to extract and correlate relevant knowledge.

The UPTIME platform will leverage crucial, and often hidden, data from machines and systems in real time and substantiate the benefits of advanced predictive maintenance analytics in boosting asset availability and service levels in manufacturing operations. Moreover, UPTIME delivers new ways for effective operational risk management in terms of preventing unexpected failures of a manufacturer’s assets, and effectively planning maintenance actions, thereby transforming the mentality of manufacturing industries in respect to maintenance services. With the help of the end-to-end UPTIME smart diagnosis-prognosis-decision making methods, manufacturers become leaner, more versatile and better prepared to act upon accidents and unexpected incidents in their everyday operations. The increased accident mitigation capabilities they acquire, allow them not only to accelerate the workplace safety and improve the workers’ health,
but also to reduce the incurring costs and become more competitive.

UPTIME platform focusses on the use of condition monitoring techniques, e.g. event monitoring and data processing systems, that will enable manufacturing companies having installed sensors to fully exploit the availability of huge amounts of data and to handle the real-time data in complex, dynamics environement in order to get meaningful insights and to decide and act ahead of time to resolve problems before they appear, e.g. to avoid or mitigate the impact of a future failure, in a proactive manner. Moreover, UPTIME proposed unified framework will not be limited to monitoring and diagnosis but it aims to cover the whole prognostic lifecycle from signal processing and diagnostics till prognostics and maintenance decision making along with their interactions with quality management, production planning and logistics decisions.

UPTIME will reframe predictive maintenance strategy in a systematic and unified way with the aim to fully exploit the advancements in ICT and maintenance management by examining the potential of big data in an e-maintenance infrastructure taking into account the Gartner’s four levels of data analytics maturity and the
proactive computing principles.
