Operational Insights Guide for Trimble Unity Maintain Introduction

Operational Insights provides organizations with a means to identify and assess high-risk assets and to establish maintenance strategies to increase their lifespan. With its tie to ArcGIS Insights®, the results can be displayed on a map so that capital improvement funding can be prioritized and applied more accurately.

The first step is to configure asset and maintenance strategies. Those strategies are then used to calculate the overall health of the assets that your organization cares for. The results can be displayed on the map or shared with others outside of Trimble Unity.

Here are some terms you should be familiar with:

  • Probability of Failure: The likelihood that the asset will fail. Risk factors that contribute to the probability of failure can include things like the age of the asset, what kind of material it is made of, etc.
  • Consequence of Failure: The impact of the asset failure. Risk factors that contribute to the consequence of failure can include things like the cost of replacing the asset, the loss of service to customers, etc.
  • Risk Mitigation: The efforts taken to reduce the impact of an asset failure.
  • Proactive Maintenance: Preventative, regularly-scheduled maintenance, such as inspecting or flushing pipes, painting lane lines, etc.
  • Reactive Maintenance: Work performed in reaction to something that happened, like repairing a leaking pipe, patching a pothole, etc.
  • Weight: A number assigned to risk factors, proactive templates, or reactive templates to determine their significance. This can be any positive number. Values of zero are ignored.
  • Rating Level: A number assigned to asset strategies to determine the range that will be used for rating scores. The default is 5, which means the rating scores will use a range of 1 to 5.
  • Rating Score: A number assigned to each factor rating used to calculate probability of failure, consequence of failure, or risk mitigation.
  • Business Risk Exposure: A calculation to determine the level of risk for an asset type based on the probability of failure, consequence of failure, and risk mitigation.
