For over 40 years, AspenTech has applied advanced technology to address the critical challenges faced by industry and society. Now, our focus is also on leading in sustainability solutions and partnering with asset-intensive industries to make the sustainability future a reality.

The priorities of industrial manufacturers are changing. While minimizing asset downtime and maximizing production and quality remain important, sustainability and operational initiatives are becoming intricate parts of a company’s strategic objectives. Increasingly, they are relying on asset performance management (APM) software to meet the challenges of volatile market demands and supply chain disruptions and optimize overall asset performance.

A revamp is underway of a widely revered strategy to avoid or mitigate industrial equipment failures. The failure modes and effects analysis (FMEA) is a core Six Sigma tool for improving processes and products. Recent technology advancements are breathing new life into this longtime, largely unchanged best practice.

Over the past three years, the Alliance to End Plastic Waste has rallied over 90 member companies, allies and supporters who are committed to ending plastic waste in the environment and creating circularity. AspenTech is proud to be one of those members and to have the opportunity to work with some of the world’s leading companies to create and scale innovative solutions for this cause.

The evolution of IIoT and advanced analytics technologies is transforming how industrial companies of all sizes manage their critical assets. In this report, ARC Advisory Group describes how AspenTech Asset Performance Management delivers prescriptive maintenance solutions to process and other capital-intensive industries.

ARC Advisory Group conducted research to gain a better understanding of the current state of sustainability and “green initiatives” in the chemical and energy industries. Research showed that:

A recent ARC Advisory Group survey of 365 industry practitioners revealed that two-thirds of respondents believe reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) isn’t improving reliability, and that operations has as much impact on plant asset performance as the maintenance organization.
