What benefits do I get for my money? How does the nmas online system end product work ?

As a first step, we configure the Nome solution to your particular asset and the malfunctions that are typically related. Together with you we set up a list with typical malfunctions that occur and the risk tolerance level for each one of them.

  • After the configuration process you will receive periodical updates of the report. The report contains the probability that certain malfunctions occur in the future. Based on risk tolerance levels which we established with you, you will immediately see which components are likely to become a problem at what point in time in the future.
  • You can access the report on an online portal. You can get an overview at the fleet level view and go more into detail to specific components and their related malfunctions and risks.
  • We offer you a live online demonstration of the report, so that you can get to know all its advantages and possibilities. Please do not hesitate to contact us for more information or to make an appointment!
Will use the nmas systemincrease the life of my critical assets?

Does Nome provide earlier warnings and better diagnostics than traditional condition monitoring solution?

Nome’s unique condition monitoring technology is proven to be highly accurate and reliable. The foresight is unique and clearly offers more advantages than basic diagnostic tools.

We are already very advanced in condition monitoring. Does Nome provide us with anything new?
  • Well-established condition monitoring programs are actually a prerequisite for the effective use of our NMAS systems. And on the basis of advanced condition monitoring capabilities, we do indeed provide something new: fundamentally new insights from condition diagnostics and malfunction monitoring allow us to further leverage your benefits from the condition monitoring efforts already spent.
What is your solution able to do that others can´t? What is the difference to other similar systems?
  • Nome’s nmas solution is not just a traditional Condition Monitoring solution: We relate the condition data to the current and future malfunction risks whereas traditional condition monitoring system is replied on data comparisons to generic alarm levels.
  • Nome’s nmas solution is not just predictive analytics: We answer questions related to timing (when) whereas other diagnostics and predictive Analytics systems focus on answering questions on the current equipment condition .
  • Nome’s nmas solution is a perfect aid to your asset management : We provide decision support based on the current and future asset conditions and malfunction risks to fill the gap whereas traditional asset management solution has due to limited top-level statistics.
