The industry has had no shortage of data and alerts, but the value was stuck at the insight stage; bringing agentic AI together with the maintenance system of record turns that insight into action at scale and helps teams get ahead of failures instead of chasing them. It’s a real step-change in how reliability and maintenance work together. But what I’m most excited about is the impact on people. I want to see how this changes a maintenance person’s day to day—how an early insight can cut down the overtime someone has to work, so they get more time away from the factory. And how moving to proactive maintenance can build a culture of maintenance and operations working together, rather than maintenance against operations.” – Sunil Koticha, Director of Automation Asset Management at Rockwell Automation About the partnership: The partnership combines the capabilities of Fiix CMMS, Fiix MAX and FactoryTalk® Optix™ with Augury’s Industrial AI Workforce. These technologies are designed to help maintenance teams move beyond just detecting equipment issues, to automate the planning and execution of corrective actions using existing workflows set up in Fiix CMMS.
