Predictive Maintenance

Instead of relying on periodic inspections, ML can analyse trends and anomalies to predict leaks before they happen, reducing unplanned downtime

• Automation & Efficiency – Paragon’s ML models automate leak detection using advanced inspection data, reducing reliance on subjective manual inspections such as visual and gauging whilst improving response time
• Integration with Digital Twins – ML enhanced leak prediction can be linked with digital twin models to simulate system performance and failure risks.
• Cost reduction – lower operational costs through better resource utilisation.
• Improved Safety – reduce hazardous tasks for workers.

By feeding sensor data into an ML model Paragon ranks leak risks dynamically these can then be linked to SAP, Maximo, or CMMS for automated alerts and maintenance scheduling.

Benefits in New Build

• Early Detection of Defects – Prevents costly rework by catching errors before commissioning.
• Enhanced Construction Quality Control – Ensures fittings and connections are assembled correctly.
• Risk-Based Testing Prioritization – Focuses testing efforts on high-risk areas, saving time and resources.
• Long-Term Reliability Prediction – Helps owners and operators anticipate future maintenance needs.

Typical Challenges of Industry 4.0

High Initial Investment: Upgrading to Industry 4.0 usually requires significant capital.

Paragon’s systems can be leased for a particular project or work scope allowing access to advanced technology without significant upfront investment.

Key Benefits of Leasing

• Lower Upfront Costs – avoid large CAPEX investments.
• Faster Adoption – deploy immediately without waiting for budget approvals.
• Predictable Costs – Fixed leasing fees make budgeting easier
• Technology Upgrades – regular upgrades to newer versions, ensuring customers
  always have the latest technology.
• Risk Reduction – no worry about equipment obsolescence or depreciation.
• Service & Maintenance Packages – calibration, maintenance, software updates, and technical support are included in the lease agreement, ensuring ongoing reliability.

Paragon Training & Certification

Paragon provides training and certification for our inspection systems helping to close
the skills gap and ensuring customers get the most out of the technology.

• Provides confidence the workforce can use the technology effectively.
• Reduces Errors & Misuse – effective training minimises false positives/negatives in
  inspections, extends equipment lifespan and avoids unnecessary system openings.
• Supports Industry 4.0 Transition – Paragon can help bridge the gap with
  digitilisation.
