Publication number: 20240338662Abstract: Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and work order analysis server devices are disclosed that train a machine learning model based on historical invoice data and target quote rates. A baseline quote rate for an enterprise is generated based historical invoices, quotes, and NTE values. A target quote rate is generated based on the baseline quote rate, tolerance data for the enterprise, and first business rule(s). The tolerance data includes a quantitative indication of an efficiency preference of the enterprise with respect to work order review. The machine learning model is then applied to the target quote rate and work order data extracted from an NTE limit request received from the enterprise to generate a model-recommended NTE limit. A prescribed NTE limit is returned in response to the NTE limit request, which is generated based on an application of second business rule(s) to the model-recommended NTE limit.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2023Publication date: October 10, 2024Inventors: Carlos Miranda DURAND, Jaxon GUMMI, John WATKINSON, Simon LEE

Patent number: 11262743Abstract: Provided is a system and method for predicting leading indicators for predicting occurrence of an event at a target asset. Rather than rely on traditional manufacturer-defined leading indicators for an asset, the examples herein predict leading indicators for a target asset based on actual operating conditions at the target asset. Accordingly, unanticipated operating conditions can be considered. In one example, the method may include receiving operating data of a target resource, the operating data being associated with previous occurrences of an event at the target resource, predicting one or more leading indicators of the event at the target resource based on the received operating data, each leading indicator comprising a variable and a threshold value for the variable, and outputting information about the one or more predicted leading indicators of the target resource for display via a user interface.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2019Date of Patent: March 1, 2022Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Rashmi Shetty B, Leonard Brzezinski, Lauren McMullen, Harpreet Singh, Karthik Mohan Mokashi, Simon Lee, Lukas Carullo, Martin Weiss, Patrick Brose, Anubhav Bhatia

Patent number: 9517579Abstract: Extruded polystyrene foams are made with an added brominated styrene-butadiene polymer as a flame retardant. The blowing agent is a mixture of carbon dioxide, ethanol and water, which may also contain a C4-C5 hydrocarbon. The blowing agent mixture overcomes a tendency of the brominated styrene-butadiene to form very small cells. This allows the foam to expand fully to form good quality, low density extruded foam.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2011Date of Patent: December 13, 2016Assignee: Dow Global Technologies LLCInventors: Shari L.
