Aggreko: Improving fleet reliability through data insight

Glasgow-based Aggreko, Scotland’s 10th largest company, wanted to monitor and be able to predict and react to any potential generator maintenance issues to ensure it continues to deliver uninterrupted and reliable power to its global customers.

The Data Lab partnered Aggreko with the University of Strathclyde who delivered academic insight and data science support using the latest machine-learning techniques.

Our partnership with Data Lab and University of Strathclyde has transformed our capability as an organisation. Machine Learning and Advanced Analytics have helped us improve reliability, prevent equipment damage and improve customer service. It’s been an invaluable project, and we are very grateful for the support.

– Steven Faull, Head of Software and Analytics, Aggreko
