SOLUTION OVERVIEW

Asset Intelligence
Leverage the Internet of Things to create a digital twin of critical assets
to improve operations and digitalize inventory management

Remotelyinventory assets
for a real-time andaccurate countMany organizations are still managing their assets
manually, using outdated methods such as pen-to-paper
inventory spreadsheets or paper-based labels. This leads toinefficiencies that can cause inaccurate inventory counts andlost assets. Without an easy means to confidently identify aTwo-thirds of asset

particular asset, there is not a way to verify that personnel are
submitting the correct asset for a work order.
The OpenText Asset Intelligence solution is the starting point in the creation of thedigital twin. This digital creation of the asset in the OpenText Internet of Things
Platform allows for the collection, orchestration, and governance of the data fromthe identified and verified asset as it operates and can be integrated to businessapplications. The data from this digital twin can be securely orchestrated anddisseminated to key stakeholders, customers, or regulators as germane to their rolein the operation of the asset.
Remotely inventory assets for a real-time and accurate count. Eliminate manual
inventory processes that can create misunderstood or inaccurate reporting. Gainthe asset intelligence needed for future use cases to track, trace, and monitor theasset as it operates.
Two-thirds of asset operators will use digital twins from their component suppliers,
up from one-third currently.1 An industrial example of a digital twin is the correlated
asset information for an air compressor deployed on a plant floor.

Digital twin:
A digital twin is a digital
representation of a physical object,instantiated as a software object
that mirrors a unique physicalobject's characteristics and its state.

By 2023, 30% ofmanufacturers will enhancetheir shop floor digitaltwin with real-time signaltransponder data, leading
to an 80% reduction inlogistic bottlenecks in shop
floor and storage areas.2

A digital twin is created for the compressor in the OpenText IoT Platform andmaintained to allow identification, simulation, analysis, and control of that compressor
either by on-site staff or via remote teams. As more information is acquired, the digitaltwin becomes more useful, enabling evolution from reactive to predictive support.
A digital twins solution enables staff to collect and disseminate the information in
operationally relevant views, within the established roles of the organization.
By 2023, 30% of manufacturers will enhance their shop floor digital twin withreal-time signal transponder data, leading to an 80% reduction in logisticbottlenecks in shop floor and storage areas. 2 IDC state that by “Joining B2B
collaborative network platforms to support ecosystems will enable agility, control,
resiliency and provide new digital connectivity to support physical coordination in
new and existing network ecosystems. Remote monitoring through the Industrial
Internet of Things (IIoT) goes beyond tracking goods in transit and provides
inventory visibility and traceability. When fully integrated with the platform
ecosystem, IIoT enables multiple supplier tier visibility, allowing automated alerts
for supply bottlenecks or disruptions, alerting manufacturers to the need to findremedy or alternative supply”.3
Deliver enterprise data governance models to augment legacy asset
management applications. The OpenText Information Management (IM) approach
to all digital twin solution implementations involves product-level partnerships
with solutions providers such as SAP®, Microsoft®, Siemens®, and Dassault®
which include certified integrations that meet or exceed industry standards forrecords management, including the Department of Defense 5015.02. Standardsbased inter-operability means all data in any format can be accessed through any
front-end application and processed through machine learning (ML) and artificial
intelligence (AI) algorithms. Using an IM system to unite information silos is criticalto successfully implementing a digital twins solution.
Creating information advantage through Asset Intelligence is all about maximizing
its value. This requires a holistic approach to the entire information landscape. At
OpenText, we understand the complexity of how and where information needs toflow, inside and outside the enterprise.
With that in mind:
We intelligently connect all mission-critical information sources together (SAP®,Microsoft®, Siemens®, and Dassault®) so they’re accessible, and so they add context
and insight.
Through automation, we simplify the aggregation and movement of information
related to business process, reducing, or sometimes eliminating, the need forhuman intervention.
And with IoT, AI and Analytics, we process this information to derive actionableinsight and answer complex questions that allow for predictive automation, and aid
in decision-making—from the C-suite down to the field.
No one else can connect, synthesize, and deliver information like OpenText.
