Maintenance Excellence Transformation

2E helps you understand your facility’s current stage of maintenance excellence. Our team works with you to identify priorities and tailor your transformation to the needs of your operation, its systems, data, and people.

Maintenance Excellence Transformation: six stages connected by foundation, standardization, optimization, intelligence, and autonomy.

Digital Transformation Consulting

Current-state assessment, target architecture, use-case selection, transformation roadmaps, implementation governance, and acceptance criteria.

  • Current-state assessment across systems, data, workflows, roles, and controls
  • Target architecture across CMMS/EAM, ERP, condition data, documents, automation, and AI
  • Use-case selection against operating value, feasibility, risk, and data readiness
  • Transformation roadmaps with system, data, process, and workforce dependencies
  • Implementation governance, decision rights, acceptance criteria, and transition controls
  • Software and infrastructure option evaluation without dependence on one vendor

System Setup, Migration & Data Modernization

CMMS and EAM setup and migration, system integration, data governance, cutover, validation, and maintenance-data modernization.

  • CMMS and EAM configuration, data mapping, migration, cutover, and validation
  • Integration across maintenance, purchasing, ERP, document, and condition systems
  • Data ownership, governance rules, exception handling, and controlled write-back
  • Asset Register Development from reconciled drawings, equipment lists, and system records
  • Item Master, materials, and BOM modernization to a governed cataloguing standard
  • PM Strategy Optimization through criticality, task selection, interval justification, and work packaging

AI Enablement, Automation & Predictive Maintenance

Enterprise AI environments, workflow automation, predictive maintenance, governance controls, custom skills, training, and private infrastructure.

  • Enterprise AI data integration with role-based access, audit history, and source traceability
  • Governance infrastructure, evaluation gates, human approvals, and data and AI safety controls
  • Control-center and agent-dashboard bring-up for workflow, risk, and performance oversight
  • Custom agent harnesses, organizational skills, prompts, and maintenance procedures
  • Condition-data integration, predictive-maintenance workflows, and failure-pattern analysis
  • Employee training in tool use, prompt engineering, skill maintenance, and safe review
  • On-premises AI clusters where the organization requires full data sovereignty

Custom Software & AI Bring-up

Role-specific oil and gas applications and AI workflows, integrations, interfaces, validation, deployment, documentation, and lifecycle support.

  • Workflow and system requirements defined with the people who own the operating decisions
  • Role-specific oil and gas applications for maintenance, reliability, and operations work
  • APIs, connectors, data pipelines, and interfaces to systems already in place
  • Prototype, test, validation, deployment, and controlled production transition
  • Performance, observability, access, audit, and failure-handling requirements
  • Operating documentation, training, change control, and lifecycle support

2E AI Suite

Customizable AI Empowered Workflows

The following previews introduce three 2E AI Suite workflows developed in-house for maintenance and enterprise work. Each can be configured around an organization's systems, data, permissions, and operating model.

Maintenance foundation

The existing system has to support the transformation.

AI cannot correct missing equipment records, duplicate materials, incomplete bills of material, or inconsistent failure history by itself.

Anyone who says AI can be installed on an existing operation without first assessing whether its data and workflows can support it is either naive about oil and gas systems or lying about the work that will be required.

Where the foundation needs work, 2E modernizes the maintenance records and controls before a migration, automation, or AI workflow depends on them.

Read why automated systems need cleaner data
  • Asset Register Development

    Functional-location hierarchy design, source reconciliation, naming standards, criticality, parent-child structure, and duplicate-record control.

  • Item Master & Materials Management

    Manufacturer and OEM part numbers, vendor cross-references, specification data, BOM-to-asset linkage, catalog governance, and stocking strategy.

  • PM Strategy Optimization

    Criticality assessment, RCM-based task selection, interval justification, task rationalization, work packaging, and material requirements.
