Overview

Overview of the Rounds Pro Module

In industrial sectors with plant-based organizations, enterprise assets and equipment are monitored by operators at regular intervals at multiple points to ensure health and safety. Rounds Pro module provides enhanced features to monitor the health of the assets in a plant and detect technical problems and failures with ease, thus improving the performance of assets in the plant. Using the Rounds Pro application, operators in a plant can perform inspections proactively by identifying issues and initiating preventive or remedial actions. Rounds Pro serves as a data connect between the assets in a plant and the APM database, which helps to drive preventive and predictive maintenance of the plant.

Using the Rounds Pro module and the Rounds Pro application, installed on hand-held devices, the operator can perform the day-to-day management of tasks through routes, steps, built-in reporting, and data collection. The module helps to identify irregularities in the assets based on the data collected and enables the operators to take corrective actions.

  • Open Instances: Displays the list of open route instances that have been created from the Route Masters.
  • Instance History: Displays history of route instances that have been checked in or completed.
  • Steps: Displays a list of steps that are used to monitor assets for specific Measurement Locations.
The Rounds Pro Manager page displays an Open Dashboard link. Select the Open Dashboard link to access the Dashboard page.
Note:
  • If APM is deployed on an on-prem environment, and you select the Open Dashboard link, the on-prem dashboard is displayed.
  • If APM is deployed on a unified environment, and you select the Open Dashboard link, the IBI dashboard is displayed.
Based on data collected and entered in the mobile application, the Dashboard page displays the following graph and charts:
  • COMPLIANCE OVERVIEW: This chart displays the percentage of routes that are due in the next 30 days, due in the next week, due today, and overdue.
  • YEAR TO DATE COMPLIANCE: This chart displays the number of route instances that are completed from the beginning of the year till date.
  • NON-COMPLIANT ROUTES: This graph displays the number of route instances that are non-compliant for different route masters. When you select a route master, the graph provides the details about the assignment of each route instance.
