Market Shift

Why equipment manufacturers need digital lifecycle services

Revenue stops at delivery

One-time equipment sales with no post-sale visibility or recurring revenue. The relationship ends when the asset ships.

No installed-base intelligence

Fragmented documentation, no fleet visibility, and a reactive service model that misses failure before it happens.

Growing competition from connected platforms

Customers expect digital services, remote monitoring and predictive intelligence as standard — not optional extras.

Product Pathway

Four levels of asset intelligence

Start with a Digital Passport and scale to a fully intelligent connected fleet — at your own pace.

1

Digital Passport

Asset identity, documentation & compliance

  • Asset identity and serial number
  • Technical specifications and drawings
  • Factory test records and certificates
  • Warranty and ownership tracking
  • Service history and QR-based access
  • No connectivity required
2

Connected Asset

Telemetry integration and remote visibility

  • Telemetry integration (optional)
  • Temperature, loading, voltage, current
  • Vibration and oil parameters (where available)
  • Alarm management and GIS location
  • Remote status monitoring
3

Intelligent Asset

AI health scoring and predictive intelligence

  • Asset Health Score
  • Anomaly detection and failure-risk assessment
  • Remaining useful life inputs
  • Maintenance recommendations
  • Risk prioritisation and warranty intelligence
4

Smart Asset Portfolio

Fleet-level management and recurring revenue

  • Fleet-level dashboard
  • Installed-base visibility
  • Customer portal
  • Lifecycle analytics and replacement planning
  • SaaS services and recurring digital revenue
Digital Passport

Turn fragmented documentation into a structured digital asset record

Every transformer and substation gets a persistent, structured record that travels with the asset from factory to field — and through every ownership transfer.

QR code on physical asset → web portal

No custom app required. Field technicians scan the asset and access full documentation instantly — including offline-compatible formats.

Passport follows the asset through ownership transfers

Passport contains

  • Technical specifications and drawings
  • Factory test records and certificates
  • Warranty and ownership tracking
  • Complete service and maintenance history
  • Multi-stakeholder access control
  • GIS location and site context
Digital Twin

Live virtual model of every transformer in your fleet

A persistent, structured virtual representation that evolves with the asset over its entire lifecycle.

Asset identity and configuration

Full nameplate data, ratings, topology and configuration — structured and queryable.

Complete change and service history

Every intervention, modification and inspection timestamped and attributed.

Live telemetry state (when connected)

Real-time and historical operating data merged with the static asset model.

Technical relationships

Protection relay assignments, busbar connections, bay and substation topology.

Lifecycle simulation and replacement planning

Project asset health trajectories and plan capital expenditure with confidence.

No rip-and-replace

Digital Twins work independently of connectivity. Start with a static twin and enrich it with telemetry as your deployment matures.

AI Care

Asset health intelligence

Health Score (0–100 composite)

Synthesises thermal history, loading profile, age, oil condition, maintenance record and environmental stress into a single actionable score per asset.

Anomaly detection

Continuously monitors thermal, electrical and vibration signatures to surface deviations before they escalate into failures.

Predictive maintenance

Proactive, condition-based service recommendations delivered before failure — reducing unplanned outages and emergency response costs.

Service prioritisation

Rank your entire fleet by risk and urgency so field teams focus on the assets that matter most, not the loudest alarm.

Portal

Customer and service portal

A single branded destination for every stakeholder — from end customers to field engineers to asset managers.

White-label deployment

Deployed under the manufacturer's own brand and domain. Customers interact with your identity throughout — Navigato powers it invisibly.

Portal features

  • Customer access and self-service
  • Service requests and ticket management
  • Warranty management and claims
  • Technical documents and drawings
  • Spare parts catalogue and ordering
  • Maintenance history and upcoming tasks
  • Installed-base map and GIS view
  • Fleet overview and health dashboard
White-Label Platform

Launch under your own brand

Brand ownership

The manufacturer's identity, logo and domain appear throughout every customer touchpoint. No Navigato branding visible to your customers.

Data sovereignty

A contractually defined data ownership model ensures that your customer data and operational intelligence remain yours — always.

Deployment flexibility

Deploy on public cloud, private cloud or a hybrid model to meet your data residency, compliance and infrastructure requirements.

Ownership & Data Model

Your brand. Your data. Your terms.

01

Manufacturer brand remains primary

All customer-facing surfaces carry the manufacturer identity. Navigato is an invisible infrastructure layer.

02

Customer data ownership is contractually defined

Ownership, access rights and data retention policies are established in the partnership agreement before deployment.

03

Deployment may be cloud, private cloud or hybrid

Flexible deployment architecture to satisfy regulatory, compliance and data-residency requirements in any jurisdiction.

04

Access is role-based and all changes are auditable

Full audit trail for every record change, access event and configuration update — across every stakeholder role.

Deployment Roadmap
