Technology-based services for a greater competitive edge
Minimum downtime and the optimum use of staff and resources are key to
sustainable success in industry. Siemens provides the basis for greater produc­ tivity, flexibility, and efficiency with
technology­based services throughout the lifecycle of an industrial plant –
reliably, globally, and around the clock.
In­depth technology and product knowl­ edge as well as industry expertise within
Siemens’ global network of experts ensure a considerable competitive edge.
For maximized plant productivity, energy management is now critical for success, and the enabler is good data transpar­ ency of energy usage and costs.
That’s why Siemens developed Energy
Data Management Services.
The challenge
Many aspects of management are as much about intuition as relying on hard facts, but for energy management the old adage “you can’t manage what you don’t measure” holds steadfastly true.
For many companies, however, obtaining the data necessary for energy manage­ ment can be a repetitive, difficult and time consuming process. And once the data have been created, processing them to provide meaningful information can be a real problem.
Siemens recognizes the need for compa­ nies to obtain useful information from their energy data faster and more effec­ tively, and without distraction from their core business. Without this speed, man­ aging energy costs and meeting regula­ tions will be a never­ending challenge.
