Client Overview

The client is a leading transformer transmission manufacturer operating in the UAE, responsible for managing high-voltage assets across key urban districts, including Deira, Dubai. Their infrastructure serves tens of thousands of residential and commercial customers, making uptime and reliability a mission-critical priority. With a growing asset base and increasing regulatory scrutiny, the client requires a smarter and more proactive approach to infrastructure maintenance.

Business Challenges

1

No Unified Monitoring Platform

No unified monitoring platform to track asset health, project KPIs, or field risks in real time.

2

Manual, Labour-Intensive Reporting

Manual, labour-intensive reporting that made timely insights nearly impossible.

3

Siloed Departmental Systems

Siloed departments with no integration between OP, ERM, IPMS, and PPMS systems.

4

High Emergency Dispatch Costs

High emergency dispatch costs because unplanned outages often went undetected until failure occurred.

Our Solutions

We introduced MuleSoft as the central integration and orchestration layer. This connected all backend systems and enabled AI-powered predictive maintenance without replacing the existing infrastructure.

API-Led Connectivity

System APIs connected to OP, ERM, IPMS, and PPMS backends. Process APIs aggregated and transformed data, while Experience APIs delivered unified dashboards and real-time reporting.

AI-Powered Predictive Maintenance

Three years of asset data trained AI agents that achieved 87% accuracy in predicting asset failures. Priority-1 tickets are automatically raised in SAP before any human alert is triggered.

Real-Time Asset Telemetry

SCADA sensors send telemetry every 60 seconds through MuleSoft System APIs. Partial-discharge readings, oil temperature, and load variance are monitored continuously in real time.

Hybrid Deployment Architecture

Cloud deployment supports scalable workloads, while on-premises deployment protects sensitive financial ERP data. Centralized API governance is maintained across both environments.

Key Takeaway

By introducing MuleSoft as the central integration and orchestration layer, Netsmartz moved the client from reactive maintenance to a proactive, AI-driven operating model without replacing existing infrastructure. Real-time telemetry, predictive scoring, and automated orchestration across SAP and field teams now identify failures up to 72 hours in advance. This has reduced emergency dispatches, protected more than 14,000 customers from disruption, and maintained a fully auditable record for regulatory compliance.
