Asset health reports use the data captured when your teams set assets' statuses to Online and Offline. They provide data-driven insights into asset reliability and availability.

Asset health reports can help you:

  • Monitor asset availability in real time.
  • Identify your most problematic assets and see the maintenance costs associated with them.
  • See how much planned and unplanned downtime your teams record for each asset.
  • Perform root cause analysis to learn more about why assets fail.

Use these insights to help you improve your preventive maintenance strategy, asset reliability, and budget decisions.

Where to Find Asset Health Reports​

  1. From the sidebar, select Reporting to open the Reporting module.
  2. Go to the Asset Health tab.

Asset Health Goals​

The type of value you set depends on the metric. For example, asset availability and planned downtime are percentages, while MTBF and MTTR are measures of time.

For some metrics (e.g., planned downtime), higher values are better, and the Great threshold must be higher than the Bad threshold. For other metrics (e.g., MTTR), you want lower values, and the Great threshold must be lower than the Bad threshold.

To set asset health goals:

  1. From the sidebar, open the Settings menu and select Features.

  2. On the Features tab, navigate to Reporting, and select Set Preferences.

  3. On the Reporting settings screen, navigate to Asset Health and select Set Asset Health Goals.
