2016: TRIM system entered in the register of domestic software

By order of the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications of Russia No. 426 of September 6, 2016, information on TRIM software was entered into the Unified Register of Russian computer programs and databases.

The register is maintained in accordance with Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1236 of November 16, 2015 "On the establishment of a ban on the admission of software originating from foreign countries for the purpose of making purchases to meet state and municipal needs."

The exclusive right to TRIM belongs to the Russian commercial organization - NPP SpetsTek LLC. This right was registered in 1997, with the issuance of the RosAPO certificate No. 970338. In this regard, TRIM is one of the first Russian solutions in its class - asset management (EAM, Enterprise Asset Management), maintenance, repair and modernization management (MRO, Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul).

2015: TRIM became available by subscription

The TRIM EAM system became available by subscription. The developers claim that using the SaaS model will cost users almost 20 times cheaper than standard license purchases.

SPEC opened the possibility of using its EAM/MRO TRIM system according to the Software as a Service (SaaS) model. The resources of the data center in St. Petersburg will be used as a hosting platform for hosting TRIM.

According to Alexei Molchanov, director of development at NPP, the new model was tested in the form of free access to the multi-user demo version of TRIM, and now testing has been successfully completed. So TRIM customers have access to two ways to use the system - a standard installation on the company side and a SaaS version.

As TAdviser explained in SpetsTek NPP, the SaaS model will be of interest primarily to those enterprises that do not have or do not plan to expand their own information infrastructure and IT service. These can be, for example, companies that have adopted the transition to IT outsourcing as a standard.

Compared to a standard system deployment, SaaS does not need to purchase servers, system software, since only Internet PCs are needed to use the system. Accordingly, the SaaS version is more economical.

In addition, the cost of a monthly subscription is about 15-20 times lower than the cost of a standard license. At the same time, the payment consists of several components: license fee, fee for user support and system administration, deduction to the data center for the use of server capacity and communication channels, royalties for the use of third-party system software.

SpetsTek NPP reported that while the SaaS version of TRIM will be sold by NPP on its own. However, in the future, it is planned to attract partners to its implementation, "for whom the sale of the service will be a natural addition and development of their own business."

TAdviser also said that so far the SaaS system has no commercial customers. But at the final stage is the signing of an agreement with one of the customers to connect two plants located in different regions of Russia to the SaaS service. His name has not yet been revealed.

We add that TRIM became the second EAM system on the Russian market after Infor EAM, available by subscription.

TRIM 3.9.3

On April 25, 2014, NPP SpetsTek announced the release of a new version of TRIM 3.9.3.

The new version implements functionality aimed at mobile users - service engineers, technical inspectors, employees of repair and emergency teams operating in the production area.

TRIM supports the use of handheld personal computers (PDAs), smartphones, communicators, mobile data collection terminals and other devices that communicate with networks via HTTP. The functionality helps to enter information into TRIM during equipment bypasses, moving away from intermediate records of information on paper and subsequent entry into the system.

Mobile users can work in the TRIM system using a network navigation program (browser) through a web interface and collect and enter in TRIM operational data obtained during movements in the production area, in particular, register defects and failures, receive information about the status of a registered defect (failure), etc.

This solution allows you to automate the execution of rounds, ensure the receipt and analysis of data directly from the production area, and ensure information communication between mobile users and the TRIM database.

The solution automates access and entry into electronic logs directly from the production area - into logs of parameters, operational states, defects, bypasses, etc. The solution provides remote access to the hardware database, allows you to work with data, usually available only on the desktop, and greatly simplifies the collection of new data and its entry into the system.

In this case, it is possible to identify the equipment using a barcode scanner or RFID tag. The operator on the PDA has access to information about the values ​ ​ of the controlled parameter for the previous period, it is possible to view this information in graphical form.

"The new functionality improves the performance of mobile personnel, the speed of collecting data from the production area. Now the data will not be distorted, and lost somewhere between writing them to paper and transferring them to the information system, "said Alexey Molchanov, Development Director of NPP SpetsTek.

TRIM 3.9.2

The main distinguishing features of TRIM 3.9.2 are the implementation of a three-level architecture and the emergence of a new application module 'TRIM-State Assessment'.

TRIM is a corporate information system of the EAM/MRO class, designed to manage the fixed assets of organizations - physical assets, risks and expenses associated with the processes of their technical operation, maintenance and repair (MR) throughout the life cycle. The developer of TRIM is NPP "SpetsTek" - a Russian company with many years of experience in the implementation of projects in the field of information systems for the management of MR and fixed assets.

Until now, TRIM has been based on client-server technology. TRIM can now be delivered to customers both in a client-server configuration (for small and medium system installations) and in a three-tier configuration that includes a client part, an application server and a data server. It is optimal to combine two and three layers of architecture within a single installation, making the most of the existing hardware, throughput, and topology of the enterprise network.

As noted by Alexey Molchanov, Development Director of NPP "SpetsTek," the TRIM application server will reduce computing costs and increase system performance due to the fact that, firstly, frequently used TRIM functions will be executed once on the application server instead of repeatedly executing them on user workstations. Second, resource-intensive system functions, such as scheduling work and resources for MRO, will run on the application server instead of running them on the client side.

The second important innovation associated with the release of the new version is the appearance of the'TRIM-State Assessment' application module. The module allows you to design, edit, store and use models for assessing the technical condition of equipment in order to optimize maintenance and repair programs.

The user, using the TRIM-State Evaluation module, operates evaluation criteria, characteristics, indicators and state indices, groups them into models, activates certain state models, calculates according to certain algorithms, analyzes the obtained index values ​ ​ to assess the state of the equipment. The module output is used by other TRIM modules. For example, the "TRIM-Maintenance" module - to automatically generate lists of expected failures and works recommended for execution, to prioritize work, calculate an integrated importance indicator, etc. With the creation of the'TRIM-Condition Assessment' module, the developer connects further prospects for the development of TRIM, since the functionality of the module will become basic in the implementation of modern asset management practices, such as Reliability-Centered Maintenance (RCM) or Risk-Based Maintenance (RBM).

2013: RCM Process Support Module "TRIM-Fault Management"

SPETStek announced in February 2013 the release of the TRIM-Fault Management module, designed for information support of the RCM process as part of the TRIM EAM system. The module will help customers effectively manage their physical assets.

The physical assets of organizations are the basis that ensures the implementation of the goals of their activities. Physical assets include process machinery and equipment, infrastructure facilities (transfer devices, buildings, structures, transport), inventories (spare parts, materials), tools, production equipment, etc. In the Russian regulatory framework, the term "fixed assets" is used, which is similar in meaning - means of labor involved in the production process for a long time and maintaining its natural form.

In turn, physical asset management is the most important area of ​ ​ activity in which many people are interested. The owners of the enterprise want fixed assets to be effective, so that the stock return and cost of ownership of physical assets ensure the profitability of the business. The management of the enterprise is interested in ensuring that the productivity and reliability of physical assets meet its requirements. All the above persons, as well as all employees of the enterprise, as well as the population of nearby territories, are interested in ensuring that physical assets are safe for human life and health, and do not pollute the environment.

The "Reliability-Centered Maintenance" (RCM) methodology, or "reliability-focused service," reflects a modern perspective on the management of physical assets over their lifecycle. It covers the management of assets during the stages of their creation (acquisition), application, maintenance and renewal (disposal). Its essence is that for each possible failure mode, it is necessary to select the applicable and effective impact on the equipment, which will ensure that the risk of failure is reduced to an acceptable level. All activities related to such a choice are covered by the concept of "RCM process."

The basis for the development of the TRIM-Fault Management (TRIM-RCM) module was national and international standards for the RCM process, which determine the requirements that such a process must meet. In this regard, the new TRIM system module supports 7 standardized steps of the RCM process. The result of each of these stages is the answer to the relevant question: what are the functions of the equipment and the nominal requirements for them; which is a violation of each function; what are the causes of each functional failure; what will happen if a failure occurs; what is the assessment of the severity of the consequences of the failure; What to do to predict or prevent failure what to do if there is no applicable and effective preventive effect.

The TRIM-Fault Management module provides for linking functions to equipment units and performance standards to functions. It allows you to decide what to consider a functional failure, and bind it to the corresponding function. The tools of the module record and classify the types of each failure, determine the categories and severity of the consequences of the failure, for which it is provided for the formation and use of criteria for the severity of the consequences. Based on the data supplied by other TRIM modules, the RCM module calculates the cost of performing a particular impact on the equipment. Comparing these costs with the failure mode risk estimate allows you to select a failure management method. The latter include works on condition, planned replacement, planned restoration, periodic checks, one-time changes and operation to failure.

The selection of the control method for each failure mode allows the RCM module to form a typical work program for this type of equipment, and already on its basis, taking into account the operating conditions and budget restrictions, to form a long-term work program for the specific equipment in operation.
