Asset Integrity Management System (AIMS)
Keep critical assets safe, compliant, and ready to operate through RBI, inspections, and barrier governance
Rayterton AIMS unifies asset registers, risk-based inspections (RBI), corrosion monitoring, defect registries, integrity barriers, and compliance reporting. The focus is to reduce asset failure risk, prevent unplanned shutdowns, and keep audit packs ready at all times.
What management wants to see
Are critical assets controlled? What are the top risks? What is overdue? What is the evidence of compliance?
Why AIMS is the best "insurance" for operations
Many organizations have inspection and corrosion documents scattered across systems, not connected to risk, and struggle to answer: which assets are most critical, when the next inspections are due, what is overdue, and what compliance evidence is ready for audits. AIMS closes these gaps with structured processes.
Risks are visible and prioritized
Risk scores by asset or segment, with drivers and recommended actions.
Inspections become strategy, not routine
RBI directs inspections to the areas that matter most.
Compliance packs are always ready
Documents, approvals, changes, and evidence are organized and traceable.
Core capabilities
Suitable for refineries, terminals, pipelines, rotating equipment, pressure vessels, heat exchangers, tanks, and other critical assets.
Asset Register + Criticality
An asset register is more than a list: it includes hierarchy, criticality, and clear boundaries.
- ✓Hierarchy: site to unit to system to equipment
- ✓Criticality: safety, environment, production, cost impact
- ✓Design and operating envelope (optional): limits, materials, codes
- ✓Document repository: drawings, datasheets, inspection history
Risk-Based Inspection (RBI) + Planning
RBI helps set inspection priorities based on risk and degradation mechanisms.
- ✓Risk scoring (optional): likelihood times consequence
- ✓Degradation mechanisms: corrosion, erosion, fatigue, cracking (optional)
- ✓Inspection interval recommendations with approval workflows
- !Overdue tracker: alerts and escalations for critical assets
Corrosion Monitoring + Thickness Trending
Consistent thickness data management, corrosion rates, and clear remaining life forecasts.
- ✓Thickness measurement points and UT readings history
- ✓Corrosion rate trends and remaining life (optional)
- ✓Corrosion circuit concept (optional) for grouping and analysis
- ✓Recommendation logs: repairs, monitoring, re-rating (optional)
Defect and Anomaly Registry + Action Tracking
Inspection findings and anomalies must turn into measurable actions, not just reports.
- ✓Defect records: locations, severity, evidence, classifications
- ✓Action workflows: assign owners, SLAs, escalations, closure evidence
- ✓Link defects to risk and inspection plans
- !Management views: overdue actions and recurring issue trends
AIMS modules (modular and scalable)
Start with asset registers and inspection planners, then expand into RBI, corrosion, barriers, and compliance packs.
Asset Register and Document Control
Asset hierarchies, tags, datasheets, drawings, vendor docs, and change histories.
- ✓Tagging and hierarchies
- ✓Document repositories with versioning
- ✓Document audit trails
Inspection Planning and Scheduling
Inspection plans per asset, intervals, scopes, methods, and execution tracking.
- ✓Inspection plans and checklists
- ✓Calendars and reminders
- ✓Execution logs and findings
RBI Engine (Optional)
Risk scoring, degradation mechanisms, and auditable interval recommendations.
- ✓Likelihood and consequence models
- ✓Risk rankings and approvals
- ✓Scenario evaluations (optional)
Corrosion and Thickness Monitoring
Thickness data, corrosion rates, remaining life, and follow-up recommendations.
- ✓Measurement points and readings
- ✓Trends and thresholds
- ✓Fast-drop alerts
Defect and Anomaly Registry
Inspection findings database (NDT/ILI/visual) with severity and evidence tracking.
- ✓Severity classifications
- ✓Repair recommendation tracking
- ✓Closure evidence
Integrity Barriers and Critical Controls (Optional)
Barrier governance: what the barriers are, how they perform, and who owns them.
- ✓Barrier registers and performance checks
- !Barrier degradation alerts
- ✓Management summaries for critical controls
Management of Change (MOC) Links (Optional)
Design and operational changes link to risk, inspection plans, and supporting documentation.
- ✓MOC requests and approvals
- ✓Impact assessments (optional)
- ✓Closure verifications
Compliance and Audit Packs
Audit-ready reports: inspection statuses, RBI summaries, defect lists, overdue actions, approvals.
- ✓PDF and Excel exports
- ✓Approval logs and change logs
- ✓Scheduled reporting (optional)
Executive Integrity Cockpit
Management summaries: top risks, overdue items, barrier statuses, and action backlogs.
- ✓Top risk assets
- ✓Overdue inspections and actions
- ✓Integrity trends over time
Example "wow" screens for executives and auditors
Placeholders for screenshots/mockups. Focus areas: top risks, overdue items, defect severity, and barrier health.
Executive Integrity Cockpit
Top risks, overdue inspections, and action backlogs with owners and SLAs.
Inspection Planner
Inspection calendars, scopes, checklists, execution statuses, and results.
Corrosion Trending
Thickness trends, corrosion rates, remaining life, and threshold alerts.
Defect Registry and Actions
Severity, locations, evidence, recommendations, and action progress through closure.
Integration and governance
AIMS can integrate with CMMS/ERP for work orders and internal document repositories. All changes are tracked with a full audit trail.
CMMS and Work Order Integration
Actions from defects or inspections can become maintenance work orders (optional).
Document Integration
Document repositories with versioning and role-based access control.
Approvals and Audit Trails
Who changed what, when, and why is fully recorded for audits.
Phased implementation that delivers value fast
Typically starts with asset registers and inspection planners for overdue control, then expands into defect registries and management dashboards.
Phase 1: Register + Planner + Overdue Control
Build core discipline: assets are registered, inspections are scheduled, and overdue items are visible.
- ✓Asset registers and document repositories
- ✓Inspection plans and scheduling
- ✓Overdue tracker and executive cockpit
Phase 2: Defects, Corrosion, RBI, Barriers
Add risk-based workflows, corrosion trending, defect actions, and barrier governance.
- ✓Defect registries and actions
- ✓Corrosion trending and alerts
- ✓RBI engines and barrier modules (optional)
