MachineMetrics and Fiix have announced a new partnership between MachineMetrics’ cutting-edge manufacturing IoT platform and Fiix’s industry-leading maintenance platform that enables businesses to drive turnkey automated maintenance solutions with real-time data from their production equipment.

Northampton, MA—September 22, 2020— MachineMetrics and Fiix have announced a new partnership between MachineMetrics' cutting-edge manufacturing IoT platform and Fiix's industry-leading maintenance platform that enables businesses to drive turnkey automated maintenance solutions with real-time data from their production equipment.

"MachineMetrics is the machine data component of the digital factory. Now, together with Fiix, manufacturers can leverage real-time data from our platform to easily empower factory worker maintenance actions and maintenance system automations," says Bill Bither, CEO and Co-Founder of MachineMetrics,

The combined offering between MachineMetrics and Fiix enables manufacturing teams to monitor the health of equipment in real-time with MachineMetrics and automatically trigger maintenance activities in Fiix based on asset usage, condition, or predictive algorithm. The integration also sends alerts when anomalous behavior occurs on a machine and creates in-depth reports on asset performance and condition, and more.

"Maintenance and operations teams should have the power to not only get information from every piece of equipment, task, person, and part at their facilities, but the tools to connect this data, analyze it, and use it to make meaningful improvements at their organization. Fiix is making this a possibility by building a hyper-connected maintenance management platform with the most open ecosystem of IIoT solutions. Teaming up with world-class partners like MachineMetrics is crucial to achieving this vision." says James Novak, CEO of Fiix.
"To deliver on the potential for factory automation and Manufacturing 4.0 requires an ecosystem of best-in-breed partners to accelerate value attainment and minimize the risk of initiative failure," says Bither, "We view FIIX as exactly that for maintenance. Optimally aligning companies like ours with unique capabilities will dramatically improve the likelihood of success while prioritizing resources towards what everyone does best."

"This partnership is incredibly exciting because it connects the maintenance team to everything that's happening on the shop floor. This amplifies their ability to identify failure before it happens, target flaws in equipment at their root, and keep assets running at their best so companies can achieve and maintain key competitive advantages," says Novak.
The collaboration with Fiix is the latest in MachineMetrics' rapidly growing IIoT partnership ecosystem that is connecting their machine data-driven IIoT platform teams with the assets, systems, and people they need to expand their impact.
