Today we're discussing how predictive maintenance is being applied in the industry. Can anyone tell me why real-time monitoring systems are essential in infrastructure?
I think it helps prevent failures before they happen.
Exactly! Predictive maintenance allows companies to anticipate issues before they arise, reducing downtime. L&T and Tata Projects use AI-powered dashboards for this purpose. Let's remember the acronym 'PAIRS' - Predict, Analyze, Implement, and Respond. What do you think is the primary benefit of this approach?
It can save on maintenance costs by fixing things only when needed.
Right! This proactive approach optimizes maintenance schedules and enhances the safety of civil engineering assets.
