MAT: Maintenance Asset Technology for Steel Plant Asset Tracking

Maintenance Asset Technology (MAT) is a digital assistant for day-to-day work that provides actionable information about the steel plant's assets. It assists the full range of services during the entire plant life-cycle, from failure of assets to successful maintenance.

In today's dynamic, 24/7 steel plant environment, every minute of downtime translates into substantial financial loss. Plant maintenance teams often grapple with increasing cost pressures and the need to enhance efficiency in resource management, which can significantly impact productivity and the bottom line.

MAT from Primetals Technologies offers a comprehensive, holistic view of a steel plant's physical assets and infrastructure throughout its entire lifecycle. Unlike standard Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software or computerized maintenance management systems, MAT is designed explicitly for the aluminum and steel industry. It supports data-driven decision-making, enabling staff to make strategic and dynamic decisions rather than reactive ones.

This specialized approach helps maintenance teams optimize asset utilization, improve operational efficiency, and ultimately enhance the plant's overall performance and profitability.
