The Utilisation Report allows Users to observe how much particular Assets have been used in comparison to their availability based off of real-time Data.
Note: This Utilisation Report currently works off of 24 hours.
To begin, select the "ANALYTICS" drop down and select "UTILISATION"
The date range at the top of the page, will autofill from the start of month to the start tomorrows shift.

The bar graph shows the Asset Availability in blue, and the Asset Utilisation in green.
The horizontal dashed line is the industry standard of Asset Availability. This standard typically sits between 85-90%. Any availability above 90% is an indication that Assets are not being maintained appropriately, or Servicing Data is not being added into VIPER.
The availability of an Asset is determined by the down time logged in Events. For more information on how to create Events, please see the article below.
The Utilisation of an Asset is determined by the Data received from daily Prestarts. For more information on Prestarts, please see the articles below.
The next section breaks down the bar graph into numeric figures for each Asset.
On the left, the Asset will be listed.
The following column displays the SMU readings at the start and end of the selected date range. This information is then used to calculate the total hours utilised during this period, including the average daily usage.
The next column has Hire information. The first number is the amount of minimum hours within the filtered date. The bottom number is how many hours over or under the Asset has completed within this date range.
If there are any instances of downtime Events occurring during this period, the report will include both the cumulative hours of downtime and the average daily downtime hours.
The next three columns indicate the availability, Utilisation and the Utilisation verse Expected Utilisation.
Green indicates a good percentage, yellow indicates an average percentage, and red indicates a poor percentage.
The final section shows Events that have been newly created, are currently active, or have been closed within the specified time frame.

FAQ:
Q) We can only use this machine for 10hrs, can we make this Utilisation report based on 10 hours?
A) No, as you will be unable to compare between projects. 24hr Availability and Utilisation allows you to compare projects based off of the same numbers. If one site loses 2 hours driving to and from site, we need to know so we can factor that into costs when quoting for future projects.
