How to Improve Your Relationship with Data

But like trying to get a glass of water from Niagara Falls, it can leave you drowning in too much of the wrong data, when what you really want is to be able to access only what’s necessary for your requirements.

The future of data

Basically there are two types of data – fixed and moving.

Fixed data, as the name suggest, is data that doesn’t change. Your fixed data might be a list of part numbers for an asset. ERIKS’ fixed data might be the same part numbers, but also cross-matched with your location, so we know where to deliver them when you order. That’s a simple relationship which can make even fixed data harder working and more valuable.

Moving data is more complex. It’s data which changes over time, such as energy outputs. If you can establish a relationship between those two, then you’ve added intelligence and the data instantly becomes immensely valuable.

So who do you trust to provide that data and build the relationships between it?

ERIKS can understand, maintain, repair and replace all components. Because we know the failure modes, we know where monitoring will be most effective to provide the most valuable data. Because we understand the system as a whole, we have the cross-discipline expertise to gather and interpret all the data. And finally, because we’re all engineers.
