Challenge

Fleet operators were reacting to failures rather than preventing them, resulting in costly unplanned downtime and expedited parts procurement.

Solution

  • CAN/J1939 telemetry ingestion at 1 Hz per asset.
  • Feature engineering: rolling statistics, fault-code frequency, duty-cycle patterns.
  • Gradient-boosted survival model predicting failure probability over a 30-day horizon.
  • Alert dashboard with maintenance scheduling integration.

Results

  • Unplanned downtime: −18%
  • Maintenance cost per unit: −11%
  • Model precision at 7-day horizon: 84%
