  • Patent number: 11748813
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for asset management are provided. The apparatus, for example, a processor to receive an input from a user via an input/output device, the input including information for a plurality of assets maintained by the user; decompose a main problem into multiple sub-problems; independently solve each of the multiple sub-problems to determine corresponding multiple sub-solutions; recombine the corresponding multiple sub-solutions into a solution to the main problem; calculate an intervention schedule for each asset of the plurality of assets based on the solution; and upon receiving a request from the user, output the intervention schedule via one of a display of the input/output device or remote electronic device in communication with the asset management apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20230229998
    Abstract: Systems and methods of an asset management system are provided herein may include a user facing feature configured to receive a first request for information associated with one or more assets being managed by the asset management system; and a calculation module including a generalized engine configured to determine and provide a customized formula machine (FM) to the user facing feature to obtain a requested output to respond to the first request for information, wherein the determined FM is configured to be instantiated as a persistent object associated with the user facing feature and configured to calculate formula outputs based on formula inputs provided to the FM, and wherein the user facing feature is further configured to consume the calculated formula outputs to generate a response to the first request and to subsequent requests with different formula inputs without using the calculation module and generalized engine to calculate the outputs.

  • Publication number: 20230137270
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for asset management are provided. The apparatus, for example, includes an input/output device; and a processor programmed to receive a selection of assets identified via the input/output device, the assets selected based upon search criteria for each asset of a plurality of assets in a network; pre-partition the assets based upon a pre-partition rule determined via the input/output device the pre-partitioning including user selected criteria entered via the input/output device that controls the pre-partition rule; apply a grouping algorithm to the pre-partitioned assets to further sort the assets into groups which includes one or more variables entered via the input/output device that controls the grouping algorithm; and record the groups of assets into a database and transmit a report to the input/output device that includes a statistical summary of how the assets are configured into the groups.

  • Publication number: 20220414616
    Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for creating an asset reliability model for at least one physical asset includes receiving data related to the at least one physical asset from at least a selection of at least one data source from which to receive the data related to the at least one physical asset, receiving a selection of at least one type of model to be created, receiving a respective response to at least one guided task or choice configured to prepare the received data, and creating an asset reliability model for the at least one physical asset using a machine learning process based on the received data related to the at least one physical asset, the selection of the model to be created, and the respective response to the at least one guided task or choice.

  • Patent number: 11295253
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for asset management are provided. The apparatus, for example, a processor to receive an input including intervention information for a first plurality of assets in a first circuit and for a second plurality of assets in a second circuit in a network; create a first plurality of bundling strategies for interventions to be performed for the first plurality of assets in the first circuit and create a second plurality of bundling strategies for interventions to be performed for the second plurality of assets in the second circuit; calculate for a created first plurality of bundling strategies and a created second plurality of bundling strategies at least one of an outage duration and cost associated with the interventions; and create a schedule for performing interventions for the first plurality of assets in the first circuit and the second plurality of assets in the second circuit.
