Predict Failures Earlier. Extend Asset Life. Stay in Control.

Detect early-stage equipment degradation, predict failures before downtime occurs, and improve reliability using real-time, data-driven models—without relying on static rules or thresholds.

 VROC’s Predictive Maintenance & Reliability solution uses multivariate AI models trained on historic operating behaviour to identify subtle deviations that traditional condition monitoring systems miss. Engineers gain earlier insight, clearer root cause understanding, and the confidence to act before failures impact operations.

 

The Challenge with Traditional Maintenance Approaches

Most maintenance strategies rely on:

  • Fixed thresholds

  • Single-sensor alarms

  • Reactive or time-based maintenance schedules

While these methods can identify known failure modes, they often detect issues too late, after degradation has already progressed. They also struggle in complex, dynamic environments where equipment behaviour changes with load, process conditions, or operating context.

As a result, teams face:

  • Unplanned downtime

  • Excessive false alarms

  • Limited insight into why failures occur

  • Difficulty extending the life of aging assets

A Different Approach To Reliability

Models Built on Normal Operating Behaviour

VROC’s predictive maintenance models are trained using historical data from periods when assets were operating in a healthy state. Instead of relying on predefined rules, the AI learns the normal multivariate behaviour of the equipment and process.

Once deployed, the model continuously monitors live data to:

  • Detect subtle deviations across multiple sensors

  • Quantify how far current behaviour has drifted from normal

  • Identify which components or parameters are contributing to the deviation 

This enables earlier detection, clearer diagnosis, and more effective intervention.

What you can do with VROC Predictive Maintenance

* Time-to-Failure (TTF) forecasting
* Remaining Useful Life (RUL) estimation
* Early warnings well before alarms or shutdowns

* Multivariate Root Cause Analysis at sensor and component level
* Drill-down insights that show what is driving degradation
* Supports faster, more confident decision-making

* AI builds dynamic operating envelopes based on real behaviour
* Detects deviation even when individual sensors remain within limits

* Focus on meaningful deviations, not noise
* Prioritise issues based on impact and severity

Designed for Reliability Engineers

VROC is built so engineers remain in control.

  • No-code model creation and deployment

  • No data science team required

  • Engineers apply their domain knowledge to interpret insights

  • Models are transparent, explainable, and auditable

This approach complements—not replaces—engineering expertise.

 

Common Applications

VROC’s Predictive Maintenance & Reliability solution is used across a wide range of assets and environments, including:

  • Rotating equipment (motors, pumps, compressors)

  • Critical process equipment

  • Fleet and mixed-asset environments

  • Brownfield assets with limited failure history

  • Remote and distributed operations

Part of an End-to-End Operational Platform

Predictive Maintenance & Reliability is delivered through OPUS, VROC’s industrial AI engine, and integrates seamlessly with:

  • DataHUB+ for real-time monitoring, dashboards, and KPI-to-sensor traceability

  • OASIS for operational control and execution

This ensures insights move from data → prediction → action without fragmentation.

 

Rapid Time to Value

VROC’s implementation approach is designed for operational environments:

  • Connect to existing sensors and historians quickly

  • Build and deploy models in weeks, not months

  • Iterate with engineers and operators as conditions change

  • Scale across assets, sites, and fleets
