At HubHead, we know that NRX AssetHub is powerful and versatile software for working with EAM/CMMS asset and maintenance data.  Asset-intensive companies use it to manage all aspects of their asset data. However, by thinking outside of the box, our customers have revealed many uses for AssetHub that were not originally envisioned.  For both HubHead and our customers, we find that the necessity of a solution drives our new development.

Our customers have been thinking

Senior maintenance staff at many asset-intensive companies have worked with HubHead to better understand their business, and where they may need help. For example, one Oil and Gas enterprise needed a way to ensure they complied with performance standards for their safety-critical elements (SCEs), or safety-critical equipment (mission critical for offshore operations). They had no easy way to ensure that all of the critical equipment had the correct performance standard linked to their tagged equipment. The customer needed a way to locate missing performance standards and update revised performance standards efficiently. They also needed a way to track when compliance was assessed, and by whom. Solving these problems turned out to be easy using NRX AssetHub.

Every company we have worked with has a unique challenge. Each time, together, we discover new uses (or use cases) for our NRX AssetHub technology.
