Equipment Monitoring for Municipalities
Operators waste time every year attempting to manually track all of their assets on paper, or, if they’re lucky, a confusing and messy Excel file that rarely is completely up-to-date. Because of this, we had clients reach out to Data-Command asking to see if we could develop a simple interface that is easy to use from anywhere that they can access the internet. We accepted this challenge and developed Argus: the leading Asset Management solution for municipal water treatment and wastewater treatment industry.
Ease of Use
We offer a solution that allows our clients to take a few quick photos, enter a few key metrics, and within seconds have information for that piece of equipment available to you from anywhere that you can access the internet, 24/7. The information is integrated with your Info-Portal system so that you can maintain real time monitoring, giving you up-to-date alerts on system maintenance.
Reduced Equipment Downtime
By using Data-Command’s suite of cloud based solutions, you can increase your plant’s overall efficiency by decreasing downtime and associated costs. Our system alerts you to your upcoming maintenance needs and lets your team better manage breakdowns by allowing you to see any past issues, giving you a better idea of how to budget for capital improvements.
Argus Real-Time Pump Monitoring
Argus is integrated into the Data-Command solution for real-time pump operation monitoring. However, with Argus, you only pay for the assets and equipment you track, rather than paying for a whole software package. Data-command is cloud based, so any improvements to the platform are automatically delivered straight to you, at no additional charge. If you have used our Info-Portal, you have seen this firsthand. Other asset management programs can be cost-prohibitive, but our cloud based solution allows us to pass the cost saving directly onto you with scalability to benefit small to medium sized plants.
Stop Using Spreadsheets to Track Maintenance
Are you currently using an Excel spreadsheet that is difficult to update and is not always at hand? Our Argus Asset Management delivers this information to you through our cloud based solution, providing access anywhere you have an internet connection. Update your maintenance records on-site immediately after completion and make sure your records have all of the details! By utilizing our cloud based solution you can be assured that you don’t have to worry about losing your records.
If you don’t want to lose this information, our import feature allows you to transfer the information from your old spreadsheet to our system.

If you decide to set it up on your own, you will find our interface to be extremely user friendly.
