A Bentley Case Study
Itafos Conda, the Conda phosphate fertilizer facility in Soda Springs, Idaho, needed to modernize asset management across a 54‑year‑old plant with more than 9,000 active assets to support safety, environmental stewardship, and retention of its OSHA VPP Star status. To address inconsistent, paper‑based records and scattered historical data, Itafos Conda engaged Bentley and its AssetWise Asset Reliability solution to standardize and digitalize asset care and maintenance practices.
Bentley implemented AssetWise to replace paper check sheets with tablet‑based inspections, alarmed indicators, and customized templates, and integrated the platform with Itafos’s CMMS to link asset information, failure modes, and work management. The digital program enabled asset prioritization and standardized care plans, verifying that over 95% of the highest‑critical assets have appropriate plans, reduced data collection from days to minutes, and saved roughly four minutes per identified issue; with ~450 check sheets per week and 220 users, the team expects over 23,000 checks annually. Bentley’s solution streamlined workflows, improved regulatory reporting, and strengthened long‑term reliability and sustainability at the Conda site.
