PLANT RELIABILITY.

Equipment Faults + Process Anomalies

Southern Province Cement Company—one of Saudi Arabia’s leading cement producers—didn’t just digitize its operations. It closed the loop: from raw sensor signal to prescribed action to user-validated production outcome. Here’s what 9X ROI looks like in under 6 months.

What's inside

FROM NOISE
TO OUTCOMES.

Mechanical Faults
Vibration, wear &
bearing degradation

Physics + AI models detect gear mesh anomalies, bearing defects, and lubrication failure across Kiln Main Drives and VRM systems before they cascade into unplanned downtime.

Electrical Faults
Motor overheating &
drive anomalies

Temperature trend analysis at motor bearings surfaces cooling failures and load imbalances before they trip the Clinker Cooler Fans or Cement Mill drives.

Process Induced Faults
Parameter drift &
quality deviation

Continuous monitoring across Raw Material Handling, Raw Mill, Pyro, and Cement Mill stages detects process shifts before they cost tons of clinker.

01

193 sensors. 6 areas. One Single Source of Truth.

How SPCC unified its Tahama plant — 38 critical assets across Raw Material, Raw Mill, Pyro, and Cement Mill sections — into a single contextualized source of truth.

Physics + AI: precision that predictions can't match

PlantOS™ doesn't flag anomalies. It traces root cause — across mechanical, electrical, and process domains — with 100% prediction accuracy and zero missed faults.

Intelligence layer
03

Diagnostic → Recommendation → Action

6 prescriptions acted upon. Real Diagnostic Reports with specific corrective steps — not dashboards, not alerts. Work orders that close.

Outcomes the plant's own engineers signed off on

56 hours of unplanned downtime recovered. 27,814 tons of production saved. 9X ROI in under 6 months. All figures from SPCC's own Reliability & Operations team.

Validated outcomes

Prediction

Outcomes.

Most AI deployments stop at the alert. They predict. They visualize. They dashboard. But prediction without a closed loop is just a more expensive alarm bell.

SPCC’s deployment with PlantOS™ proves the gap isn’t in the model — it’s in the mile between insight and action. The 99% Trust Loop™ is what bridges it.

We are not just looking for a tool; we are seeking a partnership. Our team is no longer running from one breakdown to the next. We now start our day with a prioritized list from the system, telling us which machine needs attention. The system is amazing.
