Welcome to the Dexcent Industrial Asset Management Program (iAMP)
The development of the Dexcent iAMP started in 2001 with the development and implementation of the company’s condition-based asset maintenance solution for a major Canadian mining company. The result was a CDN 23.5-million-dollar annual maintenance cost reduction.
The Dexcent iAMP Program was created utilizing real-life learnings and customer feedback to develop holistic services that consider the core components and life cycle of Asset Performance Management.
The Three Pillars of Dexcent’s iAMP are Operational Digital Readiness, Asset Performance Management, and Asset Lifecycle Management.
Operational Digital Readiness
The first pillar, Operational Digital Readiness (ODR), is an assessment-based offering focused on the three areas that can derail the asset management journey – Digital Transformation Readiness, Operational Risk Evaluation and Process Readiness. Dexcent iAPMS ODR examines the state of these areas, comparing the current condition to one or more iterative targets; identifying where change is required to meet the goals.
The first pillar, Operational Readiness Consulting (ORC), is an assessment-based offering that focuses on the three areas that can derail the asset management journey – Digital Transformation, Operational Risks and Process Readiness. Dexcent’s ORC examines the state of these areas, comparing the current condition to one or more iterative targets; and identifying changes required to meet set goals.
The Digital Transformation Readiness aspect looks at the underlaying data required to support the APM initiative to determine its availability and quality.
The Operational Risk aspect involves the identification and mitigation of identified operational risks that may result in a less than desired outcome.
The Process Readiness aspect addresses the organization’s asset related processes. In this area Dexcent looks at the process workflows to determine their effectiveness to support the anticipated changes and to make recommendations to address critical gaps.
The outcome of the Operation Digital Readiness evaluation is a clear picture of what, if any, changes are recommended to ensure the successful implementation of the Asset Performance Management components of the iAMP program.
Asset Performance Management
The second pillar, Dexcent’s Asset Performance Management, focuses on two main streams – Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM) and Operational Optimization. CBM is the practice of using equipment performance data to determine the health and maintenance needs of the asset, rather than a calendar or run-time hours method. Operational Optimization utilizes data to provide information driven support for the maintenance and reliability teams in their drive to improve operational optimization.

CBM is the practice of using equipment performance data to determine the health and maintenance needs of the asset, rather than a calendar or run-time hours method.
Operational Optimization utilizes contextualized data to provide information driven support for the maintenance and reliability teams in their drive to improve operations.
Asset Lifecycle Management
The third pillar, Asset Lifecycle Management (ALM), addresses the integration of the organization’s digital asset data into enterprise solutions to manage and maintain physical assets throughout their entire lifecycle. Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS), Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) software and other IoT based solutions are used to provide a holistic environment to help organizations make better-informed, long-range planning decisions.
The third pillar, Asset Lifecycle Management (ALM), is a comprehensive approach used to manage and maintain physical assets throughout their entire life – from planning to commissioning to disposal. Computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS), enterprise asset management (EAM) software and IoT based solutions are used to provide a holistic environment that helps organizations make better-informed, long-range planning decisions. These ultimately lead to decreased costs, increased efficiency, and an improved bottom line.
