Define the loss
Choose a recurring, measurable operational problem with a meaningful cost or capacity consequence.
WEYSENS Pilot ProgrammeStart with one problem.
Start with one problem.
Prove whether the value is real.
The pilot structure is designed to reduce commercial and technical risk before a wider deployment. One bounded loss mechanism, explicit assumptions, traceable evidence and a clear decision gate — before any wider rollout is considered.
Pilot structure
A disciplined route from problem to proof.
The exact scope depends on data access and operational context. This is the proposed engagement structure for a future pilot, not a claim that a standard commercial programme is already generally available.
Agree the economics
Document the value model, data quality, assumptions and what “recovered” will mean.
Build the case
Connect operating signals, events and context into an inspectable evidence chain.
Test intervention
Prioritise the engineering action while keeping expert judgement in control.
Measure the outcome
Compare before and after, distinguish correlation from stronger evidence and quantify the observed change.
Scale, iterate or stop
Use the result to make a rational next-step decision rather than assuming rollout.
Good pilot candidates
Where a first WEYSENS case should be strongest.
✓Recurring problemNot a one-off anomaly.
✓Measurable consequenceDowntime, throughput, quality, energy, labour or capacity.
✓Available evidenceEnough operational data or records to test a hypothesis.
✓Engineering ownershipSomeone can challenge assumptions and act on the result.
✓Decision valueThe outcome would change a maintenance, process or investment decision.
Decision gate
The pilot succeeds when it improves the decision — not when it merely produces a dashboard.
Expected outputs are a documented evidence chain, explicit confidence and assumptions, an agreed value model, a prioritised action and a before/after verification route.
