Siemens Origin is cloud-based software for tracking maintenance work and asset health, planning maintenance projects, and allocating funds across fiscal years. It analyzes historical maintenance and asset behavior to inform decisions about maintaining, upgrading, or replacing assets. Siemens says Origin can add more than 20 years of historical and benchmarked asset and maintenance data to an asset register. Risk rankings help teams prioritize repairs, replacements, and inspections based on risk and the operational effects of failure. Visual metrics and AI-enhanced models support funding requests and forecasts of the financial impact of delayed investment. Users can update facility condition assessments from mobile devices after maintenance is completed. Origin exchanges assets and work orders with Asset Essentials, while Origin preventive maintenance schedules sync back to that system; setup requires choosing Asset Essentials as the CMMS in Settings. Users can import desktop asset data and export formats including CSV, Excel, and images. Siemens identifies asset managers, operations professionals, and facility leaders in manufacturing, healthcare, senior living, education, and government as potential users. Pricing is on request.
