AnyWare & Dual Inventive presenting a keynote on the Asset Performance International Conference in Antwerp
Less maintenance and higher performance through a digital central control tower – case Rail Safety
In this presentation, you discover a collaborative digitalization initiative focused on optimizing asset management for over 10,000 rail safety devices distributed across several countries. Central to this strategy is a digital control tower framework that enables real-time monitoring and proactive management of Dual Inventive’s SIL4-certified ZKL3000RC safety systems. The system combines static and dynamic data to allow for accurate condition assessment, reducing the frequency of manual inspections and enabling earlier interventions.
The platform and framework allows both the manufacturer and end users to monitor device status, manage performance KPIs, and log all maintenance actions in a unified digital passport.
This approach empowers distributed teams to act on insights without geographic or operational delays. The session details how user-specific logic, secure data handling, and seamless integration with field service operations contribute to improved safety, reliability, and operational efficiency. The case illustrates how modern cloud infrastructure and predictive analytics redefine fleet-wide maintenance for safety-critical infrastructure.
Challenges addressed:
- Frequent, resource-heavy inspections of distributed safety devices
- Lack of centralized oversight and process transparency
- Growing demand to do more with fewer resources
Key learning takeaways:
- Use of real-time monitoring to reduce maintenance workload
- Role of cloud platforms in enabling distributed asset oversight
- Impact on service quality and fleet reliability
