equipment management solutions

Cat® emsolutions for Construction is a portfolio of technology enabled services focussed on delivering proactive asset management solutions for our construction customers.

Unplanned stoppages are arguably the most significant contributor to increased risk, production losses and unexpected costs. Put simply, planned maintenance evolutions are safer, more efficient and more effective. Operationally then it is essential to efficiently match planned maintenance evolutions to production demand.

the emsolutions approach focusses on optimising asset performance through effective condition based maintenance plans that are linked to production demand. We achieve this through provision of an integrated suite of services that deliver whole-of-life benefits by considering machine condition, usage and productivity as elements of a holistic system.

these services, based on global best practice and internationally recognised standards, can be applied to any brand of equipment to develop a world class condition based maintenance program that reduces breakdowns, repair times and maintenance costs while creating a safer work environment.

Available service levels within emsolutions for Construction include:

seRviCe levels

the base level capability comprising a range of products and services to enable secure and reliable data and telematics connection of your machines.

With an emsolutions level 3 package our team of Condition Monitoring Analysts (CMA) use information from multiple data sources to identify potential problems and generate high quality maintenance recommendations before failure. these recommendations are structured to support each company’s maintenance strategy and reduce machine downtime, control costs and schedule repairs more efficiently resulting in optimized productivity.

COMPAnY COnDitiOnsOperating conditions such as grade, road state and climate are an important piece of information also considered by our CMAs in developing meaningful, quality repair recommendations.

BenChMARkinGArguably the most powerful capability of emsolutions level 3 is our access to the Cat Global knowledge Centre for benchmarking performance of a single machine against the entire worldwide operating fleet.

the key enabling technology is the unique Cat® eCA application used by hastings Deering personnel to analyse all of the data elements from your machines.

CAt® eCA is an intelligent software application that combines Caterpillar and Cat dealer expertise with field-tested best practices and fleet performance data from around the world, allowing our CMAs to quickly generate recommendations on how to find and fix equipment problems before they become costly failures.
