Yokogawa Engineering Asia has won a contract to supply an asset management system (AMS) to the PUB, Singapore’s national water agency. The purpose of the AMS is to enhance the reliability and productivity of the PUB’s operations. Yokogawa Engineering Asia will be in charge of supplying, implementing and maintaining this system.
The PUB oversees the entire water cycle in Singapore, from rainwater collection and the purification and supply of drinking water to the treatment of used water and reclamation to produce NEWater, Singapore’s own brand of ultra-clean, high grade reclaimed water. The AMS will help the PUB manage every plant and network asset over its entire lifecycle. It will automate processes such as fault reporting, maintenance scheduling and management reporting. It will support the use of tablets by field teams for easy access to maintenance work processes and the use of radio frequency identification for inventory management. Yokogawa Engineering Asia will be in charge of developing this asset management system and will execute and manage the entire project, which is scheduled for completion by October 2019.
