Documents Module

eFM is supported by a powerful documentation management system, able to archive and research efficiently different types of document elements. To integrate particular contexts, where documents are already handled by a solid archiving system, eFM also supports connections to external repositories. This way, a document can be physically managed from the system, or though a reference link. Furthermore, through external connections, document elements of any nature, such as web pages or executable applications, can be referred. Once entered into the system, the element can be connected to one or more items which identify the company assets. The document module also supports the possibility to manage and archive technical documentation based on taxonomy, ensuring the complete traceability of the credit flow, allowing modifications and the consultation of technical documents.

On request, it's also possible to supply a further support add-on, which integrates in the documents module, allowing the creation of documents for new projects, or the revamping of existing systems, integrating a coherent data base with that managed by eFM. The module support the creation of connection between the graphical primitives of CAD designs to the corresponding element of an asset managed by CORE.

Modulo Manutenzione

The eFM Maintenance Module is specific for the integrated management of maintenance, be it scheduled, event-based, or proactive. Starting from the vital statistics of the business assets, the eFM Maintenance Module generates true and proper maintenance schedules, creating maintenance profiles to be associated to individual assets, defining time periods, specific activities, materials, and the parts and equipment necessary for an appropriate completion of each individual task, thus allowing the scheduling of the interventions themselves.

The "Call Center" functionality allows to manage the whole request of intervention flow for unplanned maintenance.
The module also integrates an efficient function that manages spare parts, through which it is possible to trace the movements of the warehouse and of the outsourced elements (price lists for parts, services, etc.).

Finally, there is also a wide range of reports for a correct and complete traceability of performed interventions, performance analysis (KPI), and costs.

Inspection Tour Management Module

This module allows the configuration, planning, and management of any kind of Inspection Tour, for any asset element in the plant, in order to collect information to describe the operating and efficiency state of the asset.

The creation of the Inspection Tour may be performed directly on the client platform, both with the support of a portable device (e.g. tablet) using an Android app that helps operators in the collection of off-line field data, allowing the subsequent synchronization with the server.

Modulo What-If

This module allows the performance of two types of analysis based on the relationship of dependence among the asset elements defined and managed within the system. Particularly, it allows, starting from the selection of a specific element, to carry out:
- Failure analysis, a Upstream-Downstream type analysis, able to provide indications on the elements (downstream) who suffer the effects of a failure of one specific selected upstream element.
- Dependency Analysis, a Downstream-Upstream type analysis, able to provide indications on all the elements located upstream of the selected item and from which the latter depends on.

Starting from this module, Teseo has brought eFM to mobile platforms, through Android technology. The App was developed starting from a User Experience based approach, putting the end user at the centre of the development process, to ensure usability, simplicity, and maximum efficiency.

Operation Manual Module

The "Operation Manual" module answers the operational and legal needs of having a constantly updated plant document, able to provide all the information for the complete management under ordinary, extraordinary, and emergency circumstances.
Connected to the CORE of eFM, of which it uses all the already consolidated solutions to manage documents and assets, the eFM-OM allows the configuration, management, and tracing of every modification to the Operation Manual of the plant, through an advanced versioning mechanism and an extremely intuitive interface.

Under this perspective, the plant operation manual is no longer just a constantly available document in digital format at its latest version, it is a true and proper aggregate of text, data, documents, and external links, which allows a structured consultation of its text part, the direct access to all the information pertaining it, such as asset elements, attached documents, and reference documents, and the access to all previous versions, to allow a guided and structured navigation that drastically reduces consultation time.

Risk Management Module

The Risk Management (RM) module, allows to create a risk assessment associated to each individual element of an asset or of an entire "work place". Starting from the definition of the work place and asset elements that generate risks, it is possible to assign each the "energies" relating to risk. Automatic processing of complex analysis lead to the identification of elements that can potentially "generate" and "suffer" elevated risks, outside the acceptable limits.

The subsequent definition of the so called "mitigating effects" and of the Protection Devices to employ, allow to create an in-depth and complete analysis, that leads to the production of the Risk Assessment Document. Furthermore, a mobile application allows to carry out the assessment and analysis right on-site, synchronized the collected information with the management system.

Robustness Module

eFM Robustness is an analysis module, which can:
- automatically generate asset elements of the data infrastructure based on parameters such as MIBs and SNMP protocol;
- represent, through tables and reports, the Robustness state of parts of the considered infrastructures;
- carry out a predictive analysis projected in the future.

Purchasing Material Management Module

The eFM-PMM is the module that allows the acquisition of information from external system (ex. Movements and stock SAP), and the definition of data employed in the PMM context. The PMM module includes features for the allocation and reference of trimester consumption forecasting of products.

Starting from the "needs", it allows the generation of orders to individual suppliers. The amount of "articles" for each week are then spread, according to a "market share" value, over different suppliers.

Toxic Gas & Chemical Management Module

eFM-TGCM is the support module for the management of CHEMICAL and GAS product handling associated to the related Cabinet, providing for the use of mobile devices to read bar codes to ensure the correct execution of the Incoming and Outgoing procedures.

The system integrates the Maintenance Module and the Purchase Material Management (PMM) Module, with which it exchanges and integrates information.

As Built 3D Module

The AsBuilt3D Module adheres to the main functions relating to the suitable management of a 3D model for the acquired plant, through laser scanning technologies, also adding the possibility to visualize and navigate the 3D model, interacting with the asset management system.
The employed Viewer is an application external to eFM, but that can interact with eFM through a communication interprocess of different type (ex. socket, web services...)

The AsBuilt3D module also supplies a useful support to maintenance, revamping, and design activities and, in general, for the management of the whole plant.
