Yokogawa and UptimeAI partner to deliver operational excellence through AI-powered APM
Yokogawa Electric Corp., a global leader in industrial automation and control, and UptimeAI Inc., a provider of a cutting-edge artificial intelligence (AI)-based operational excellence platform designed to mimic experts in identifying and solving operational issues, have announced a strategic agreement aimed at dramatically enhancing asset performance management (APM) in industrial plants. The agreement is underscored by a capital investment in UptimeAI by Yokogawa.
Under the agreement, the companies will integrate UptimeAI’s AI-powered platform into Yokogawa’s OpreX Asset Health Insights service. The combined solution will provide customers in the oil and gas, chemicals, cement, power and renewable energy industries with a seamless and powerful approach to optimize plant operations, reliability and maintenance.
OpreX Asset Health Insights and UptimeAI platform integrated solution.
Specifically, the bundled offering will merge the capabilities of OpreX Asset Health Insights as an OT/IT data enablement engine with UptimeAI’s flagship modules, “AI Expert: Generative AI” and “AI Expert: Reliability & Process,” bringing advanced LLM-based AI agents, subject matter knowledge, self-learning workflows, maintenance analysis and industrial asset library models into a comprehensive AI assistant for plant operators. This solution will enable users to achieve a significant positive return on investment in a short period of time by reducing maintenance and operational costs with predictive insights, root cause analysis, and recommendations driven by automated learning processes.
“We are excited to partner with UptimeAI to bring next-generation AI solutions to our customers,” said Yukihiro Funyu, a senior vice president and head of the Digital Strategy Headquarters at Yokogawa. “Global manufacturers want to go beyond basic monitoring and predictive analytics. They seek intelligent applications that identify root causes, extract best practices, and drive continuous improvement. UptimeAI uniquely fits the bill with a proven track record amongst global industry leaders.”
Jagadish Gattu, CEO of UptimeAI, added, “Partnering with Yokogawa allows us to expand the reach of our AI technology and create a greater impact on the industry. Together, we will help customers transition to smarter and more resilient operations with increased profitability from higher reliability, efficiency, and people productivity.”
By combining their strengths, Yokogawa and UptimeAI are committed to delivering innovative solutions for industrial asset management that empower customers to achieve operational excellence.
