Case Study: Global Cement Manufacturer Minimizes Downtime with C3 AI

Global Cement Manufacturing Company cuts false positives by 96% with C3.ai

The global cement manufacturing company faced significant challenges with unplanned equipment downtime in its highly interconnected production process. Its previous in-house predictive maintenance solution generated excessive false alarms and failed to scale. To address this, the company partnered with C3.ai to implement the C3 AI Reliability application.

C3.ai configured and deployed its solution to monitor critical vertical roller mills, utilizing a multivariate approach that reduced false positive alerts by 96%. The implementation successfully predicted 100% of asset failures and generated an annual economic benefit of $10 million. C3.ai also enabled the customer to scale the application globally by training its data scientists to deploy new models rapidly.
