  • Patent number: 9679253
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for managing and upgrading components in an infrastructure are provided. Records relating to components may be retrieved from a database and separated into subsets based on conditions of those components, the types of those components, deterioration models of those components, and/or other factors. Future condition values may be calculated for each subset, and likelihoods of failure of components may be determined for each subset based on those future condition values. The estimated condition values may be used in order to determine an optimal approach to maintaining, refurbishing, and/or replacing the components in the infrastructure. Computational efficiency is increased.

  • Publication number: 20160132804
    Abstract: Systems and methods for continuously planning maintenance of enterprise equipment are provided. Draft forecasts relating to projects in an infrastructure are generated by a computer system. A first user (U1) selects a draft forecast and submits it for approval. The computer system adds the submitted forecast to a submitted scenario. A second user (U2) approves or rejects the submitted forecast for inclusion in a master scenario. The second user may modify the submitted forecast. The system permits continuous planning of projects to maintain an enterprise infrastructure.

  • Publication number: 20160132819
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for filtering and displaying different scenarios are provided. Gantt charts illustrating multiple scenarios for performing projects are generated by a computer system. The projects shown in the Gantt charts are filtered by the computer system so that only projects which exhibit differences between the multiple scenarios are displayed. The computer system may display projects with differences that exceed a threshold. Gantt charts may be displayed by computer systems along with risk matrices describing the risks involved in one or more of the projects. Risk matrices plot risk values associated with projects. Computer systems may group projects with similar risk values into bins.
