The vast majority of factories operate at full capacity: 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. An hour of lost or reduced production capacity cannot be recovered.
The lack of control over assets threatens the realization of major investments. Industrial risks are significant. Especially since the majority of shutdowns are caused by avoidable breakdowns. There are several reasons for this:
As a result, it is virtually impossible to monitor all assets simultaneously without adequate and adequate resources. Integrity managers must engage in routine tasks that lack value, which compromise the integrity, reliability, performance, and security of assets, such as:

These net losses do not paint the full picture. We need to combine them with expenses for repairs or replacements. However, it is difficult to quantify these costs due to the great disparity in breakages. However, we know that emergency work costs between 6 and 10 times more than planned work. We can also calculate the time lost in the disorganization of teams.
The lack of control over production also has an impact on intangible losses, in particular the reputation of the organization for recruiting and the credibility of managers with shareholders and investors. These aspects can create effects that are sometimes insurmountable.
Typically, according to our experience, for a metallurgical plant, a complete shutdown costs $90,000 per hour in lost production.
Typically, according to our experience, for a metallurgical plant, a partial reduction of 35% represents a loss of $31,500 per hour in production.
Typically, according to our experience, for a metallurgical plant, 85% of breakages are categorized as avoidable.
30 unexpected breakdowns causing a partial reduction per year on average.
10 unexpected breakdowns causing one complete shutdown per year on average.
1 unexpected breakage causing a major complete shutdown by 3 years on average.
For a medium-sized metallurgical plant with a large number of tanks, chimneys, buildings, pressure vessels, pipes and other critical assets.

Au-delà des bénéfices chiffrables, Stelar offre une vaste gamme de bénéfices tangibles permettant aux organisations d’améliorer la fiabilité et l’intégrité des actifs afin qu’elles deviennent plus performantes.
Avoiding net losses is certainly a sufficient justification for the implementation of an adequate monitoring system. There are certainly other tangible benefits to consider:
