Case Study: Sitech achieves $2.4M/year revenue gain and rapid analytics with TrendMiner

How TrendMiner’s self-service industrial analytics software helps Sitech’s customers and stakeholders at Chemelot achieve maximum plant performance and cost-effectiveness

Sitech, a technology partner for companies at the Chemelot chemical campus, faced challenges turning large volumes of process data into actionable insights to avoid unplanned downtime and improve asset performance. Engineers were spending too much time on data preparation in Excel, analytics skills were scarce, and management needed a clear business case, so Sitech chose TrendMiner’s self-service industrial analytics software to put analytics in the hands of process and control engineers.

TrendMiner’s solution let Sitech perform descriptive, diagnostic and predictive analytics directly on historian data, enabling fast root-cause analysis, automated notifications and APC/6sigma data cleaning. The deployment produced measurable gains: a $2.4 million/year benefit from a 5% revenue increase on one unit, a 1%+ revenue improvement across a production line from better heat-exchanger maintenance, five years of data insight available in minutes, reduced manual labor and improved process stability — all enabled by TrendMiner’s self-service analytics.
