AI Agents
Specialized autonomous agents working in coordination
Orchestrator Agent
Complex predictive maintenance workflows require coordination across multiple analysis stages and specialized agents. Without orchestration, agent outputs may conflict or miss critical dependencies.
Core Logic
Serves as the master coordinator for the entire predictive maintenance workflow. Manages the 12-phase analysis pipeline, delegates tasks to specialized agents, collects and synthesizes outputs, and drives the multi-agent consensus process. Maintains global memory of analysis context and ensures all agents have access to relevant information.
Sensor Analyst Agent
Raw telemetry data from equipment sensors contains noise and requires expert interpretation to identify meaningful anomalies and degradation patterns.
Core Logic
Analyzes real-time and historical sensor data to identify anomalies and degradation signatures. Processes temperature, pressure, vibration, and oil analysis readings to extract features. Calculates anomaly scores and trend analyses, then communicates findings to the pattern matcher for historical correlation.
Pattern Matcher Agent
Isolated sensor anomalies lack context. Without historical pattern matching, it is impossible to know whether a signature indicates imminent failure or normal operational variation.
Core Logic
Searches historical failure databases to find similar degradation patterns. Calculates similarity scores against past cases and identifies the outcomes of those cases (failure, proactive repair, false alarm). Provides evidence-based failure probability estimates based on what happened in similar historical situations.
Risk Assessor Agent
Maintenance decisions require quantified risk assessments with uncertainty bounds. Vague assessments like 'medium risk' do not provide actionable guidance for scheduling decisions.
Core Logic
Calculates precise failure probability distributions and remaining useful life estimates using Weibull and exponential degradation models. Provides confidence intervals (90% CI) for all predictions and computes composite risk scores considering failure probability, severity, and business impact.
Schedule Optimizer Agent
Finding optimal maintenance windows requires balancing multiple constraints: production schedules, technician availability, parts inventory, bay capacity, and weather conditions.
Core Logic
Generates multiple feasible maintenance schedule options that satisfy all constraints. Scores each option based on configurable optimization criteria (cost, downtime, risk, fleet availability). Identifies the recommended option and explains tradeoffs for alternatives.
Cost Analyst Agent
Maintenance decisions require financial justification comparing proactive intervention costs against potential failure costs, but this analysis is complex and time-consuming.
Core Logic
Performs comprehensive cost-benefit analysis comparing proactive, reactive, deferred, and monitoring scenarios. Calculates expected costs including labor, parts, equipment, production loss, safety, environmental, and reputation impacts. Computes ROI, NPV, and sensitivity analysis for key variables.
Integration Coordinator Agent
Maintenance recommendations must flow to multiple enterprise systems (CMMS, ERP, parts ordering, scheduling) but manual data entry is slow and error-prone.
Core Logic
Manages integration with external systems to execute approved maintenance plans. Creates work orders in CMMS, reserves parts in inventory systems, schedules technicians, and books maintenance bays. Provides status tracking and retry logic for failed integrations.
Digital Twin Agent
Sensor-based predictions may miss physics-based failure modes. Without simulation validation, prediction accuracy is limited to statistical correlations.
Core Logic
Synchronizes real-time equipment state with physics-based digital twin models. Runs predictive simulations to validate sensor-based predictions and explore what-if scenarios. Provides simulation-based confidence scores and identifies safe operating windows.
Sustainability Analyst Agent
Mining operations face increasing ESG reporting requirements. Maintenance decisions impact carbon footprint but this is rarely quantified.
Core Logic
Calculates environmental impact of maintenance decisions including carbon footprint from emergency parts shipping, waste from catastrophic failures, and energy consumption. Tracks ESG compliance and provides sustainability metrics for executive reporting.
Fleet Intelligence Agent
Equipment is analyzed in isolation, missing patterns that affect multiple assets. Systemic issues like bad batch components or operating condition problems go undetected.
Core Logic
Performs cross-equipment correlation analysis to identify fleet-wide patterns. Detects when multiple assets show similar degradation signatures indicating systemic issues. Recommends coordinated maintenance to capture economies of scale and identifies fleet-wide optimization opportunities.
