Mean-time-between-failure means nothing if the asset is not critical. Nexus Criticality scores every asset on mission-impact, redundancy, and replacement difficulty then propagates that scoring into PM frequency, work-order priority, and capital planning.
Four scoring dimensions blend into one criticality score per asset.
What breaks if this asset fails? Tenant comfort, life safety, production line, or just convenience? Per-site weighting.
Is there an N+1 backup? Auto-failover? Or is this a single point of failure? Reduces effective criticality where redundancy exists.
Lead time, install complexity, regulatory hurdles, and cost. A long-lead-time asset gets higher criticality even if redundant.
A degrading asset gets a temporary criticality bump until repaired. Auto-propagates into work-order priority.
A criticality-9 chiller gets monthly PMs, vibration monitoring, and same-day SLA on corrective work. A criticality-3 lobby fan coil gets quarterly PMs and best-effort dispatch. Criticality is the lever that aligns PM spend, vendor contracts, and capital prioritization.
On-premise by default. Cloud-deployable when required. Your facility data never leaves your network.
TLS everywhere, secrets in vault, row-level security on every query. Containerized and isolated so one service going down never takes the rest with it.

Engineer and operator questions on this capability.
No. Nexus seeds criticality from asset type and location, then refines with your inputs.
Yes every reclassification is logged. Site reorganizations, lease changes, and process line changes all warrant rescoring.
Configurable. Most clients tier PM frequency by criticality bands so high-crit assets get more attention without manually editing every PM.
Yes. Score vs. mission-readiness for federal, vs. tenant-impact for commercial, vs. line-uptime for industrial.
Each Nexus module is sharper paired with the next.
