Asset Performance Management (APM) Software
Optimizing the performance of assets to increase reliability and availability, minimize costs, and reduce operational risks.
What is GE SmartSignal?
SmartSignal helps detect, diagnose, forecast and prevent emerging equipment failures. Powered by unique Digital Twin analytics, SmartSignal’s early detection and time-to-action forecasting drive improved reliability with maximum O&M efficiency.
SmartSignal is available as on-premises software or cloud subscription and as an integrated component of the GE Digital APM application suite.
Featuring Time-to-Action Forecast Analytics
“The time-to-action analytic adds a new dimension to GE Digital’s APM capabilities... Adding a time factor to problem diagnosis provides an important benefit toward optimizing maintenance activities while avoiding downtime.”
- Joe Perino, LNS Research Analyst

"We chose SmartSignal to anticipate critical equipment failure before production disruption occurred because we knew it could scale to meet our needs and the visualization made it easy to see what actions we needed to take."
Matias Palacios - Rotating Equipment Engineer, Total EP
Since implementing SmartSignal in 2013, Total EP has had zero unanticipated failures on monitored assets.
Drive results with smart maintenance
Predict, diagnose and forecast future issues
Effective predictive maintenance centers on advanced analytics, and GE Digital is a leader in machine learning analytics for a wide array of equipment classes across OEM providers.
SmartSignal Digital Twins provide automated surveillance to discover developing issues, diagnostic guidance for causal analysis and actions, and time-to-action forecasting intelligence to ensure remediation is scheduled prior to any failure.
Visualize, analyze and act to prevent failures
SmartSignal’s rich visualization, analysis and case management tools coupled with analytics intelligence provide a full closed-loop solution for predictive maintenance and asset reliability management.
Reliability and maintenance engineers can investigate alerts, perform root cause analysis, determine immediate and long-term maintenance strategies, and track ultimate success.
Analytics at work
SmartSignal Digital Twins are built on years of GE expertise in industrial manufacturing, operations, service, and software. The growing Digital Twin catalog covers more than 330 common industrial assets, providing predictive, diagnostic, and forecasting analytics.
Standard analytic blueprints for rotating, fixed, electrical and mobile equipment classes are rapidly trained to create accurate machine learning analytics tailored for each monitored asset. These analytics leverage a wealth of asset class intelligence including known failure modes, instrumentation inputs, operating context, engineering specifications and GE subject matter expertise.
