Augmentir is a leading connected worker solution, providing a suite of AI-powered connected worker tools that help industrial companies deliver effective skills management, training and collaborative digital workflows, by digitising and optimising frontline work processes.
Fluke Reliability enables customers to adopt a connected approach to their reliability strategies, bringing together hardware, AI-powered software, services and their eMaint platform within one workflow. The solution helps customers shift from reactive to predictive maintenance strategies, assessing the health of their assets and utilising their AI diagnostic engine which means customers can predict faults up to six months in advance.
The mutually beneficial partnership enables customers' maintenance and operations departments to engage in integrated digital operations on the plant floor. Augmentir boosts efficiency with digital tools that reduce onboarding and increase productivity. Fluke Reliability enhances decision-making, meaning workers can shift from reactive to proactive in their approach. Both prioritise the end-user while benefiting overall operations.
Fluke Reliability Chief Technology Officer, Aaron Merkin commented: "Our ethos has always been to simplify processes for the end-user. With a growing skills gap and aging workforce, we know the workers of tomorrow are best supported with technology that helps them get the job done quicker and more efficiently.
"Augmentir's connected worker platform supports workers with that in mind, utilising AI technology that complements our own. I'm confident our collective customers will see value in our ongoing partnership."
Augmentir CEO and Co-Founder Russ Fadel (pictured) added: "We know that there's a growing need for digital support for workers across manufacturing operations. Augmentir's solution is aimed squarely at solving manufacturing's biggest challenge: the skilled labour crisis - helping operators onboard workers faster, enabling targeted reskilling and upskilling of their current staff, and supporting workers with individual guidance.
"This goes hand in hand with Fluke Reliability's focus on helping workers make the right decision at the right time - prioritising people, which are the foundation of any successful business."
Augmentir has been added to Fluke Reliability's Industry and Technology Partner Program, which is designed to enable customers to better integrate and automate connected reliability workflows for improved operations. This move underpins the commitment from both companies to help customers shift to more digital manufacturing operations; empowering them with decision-making capabilities that accelerate efficiency across global operations.
