Executive Summary

Goals to improve safety, cut costs, decarbonize operations and extend the life of critical assets are driving asset maintenance initiatives up the corporate ladder for industrial firms. The Verdantix 2024 industrial operations and maintenance survey found that 84% of industrial firms plan to increase their maintenance budgets over the next 12 months, while 46% aim to digitally transform their plant operations and maintenance activities (see Verdantix Global Corporate Survey 2024: Industrial Operations And Maintenance Services Budgets, Priorities And Tech Preferences). In the wake of this, industrial firms are increasingly turning to consultants – in particular, industrial asset management (IAM) technology implementation providers – to help them navigate the complexities of modernizing their maintenance strategies. This report provides executives at industrial firms involved with asset maintenance activities with an overview of 13 prominent IAM technology implementation service providers. The analysis is drawn from questionnaires, existing Verdantix research and publicly available information. Executives from a variety of business functions, grappling with asset maintenance challenges, should use this report to help build an effective asset management implementation and partnership strategy.
