The Emerson Work Notification capability uses the established relationship between Emerson and Mtelligence, an industry leader in maintenance intelligence solutions, to connect AMS Suite to EAM/CMMS systems.
The work notification capability uses the Open OandM (Operations and Maintenance) Initiative, based on MIMOSA standards, to ensure open connectivity for users.
Together with Mtelligence, Emerson can connect the work notification capability to standard interfaces.
AMS Asset Portal 3.0 also supports OPC connectivity to allow users to gather information from DeltaV systems, other AMS Suite applications, historians, distributed control systems, programmable logic controllers, and other applications.
Through OPC connectivity, users gain additional visibility to asset health information throughout the enterprise. Request a free brochure from Emerson Process Management ...
