SmartSignal Corporation announced today that it was selected as a runner-up in The Wall Street Journal’s 2006 Technology Innovation Awards. The competition, now in its 6th year, recognizes industry-leading technologies from around the world in several categories. SmartSignal was selected as a Runner-up in the Software category and was applauded as “software that warns companies about potential problems in equipment and processes.”
“We are delighted to be recognized by The Wall Street Journal,” stated Jim Gagnard, CEO, SmartSignal Corporation. “The award highlights our ability to help clients improve availability, decrease unplanned downtime and deliver a six to nine month return-on-investment.”
SmartSignal’s software solution, EPI*Center, enables customers to improve equipment availability, decrease unnecessary maintenance, avoid catastrophic failures, and help optimize maintenance schedules. For original equipment manufacturers, EPI*Center provides the additional benefits of competitive differentiation and reduction in warranty and aftermarket service-agreement costs.
EPI*Center continually inspects key aspects of process and equipment health to provide early warning of impending problems, enabling increased uptime and reduced operating costs. Unlike condition-monitoring devices, EPI* Center provides constant, 24/7, predictive, data-centric analysis of the health of all monitored equipment and processes. It works on all types of equipment, in all modes of operation, with all OEMs. EPI*Center identifies impending problems, transcends data overload, and predicts abnormal process and equipment performance days, weeks, and even months earlier than possible with traditional monitoring methods.
