Delivery model

Start with a bounded pilot. Scale into the client Equipment Core.

Lucenox delivers each Equipment Core through a controlled programme with defined outputs, joint responsibilities, formal decision gates and deployment choices suited to the client's operating and security model.

01 Discover

Map the equipment ecosystem

Identify facilities, equipment classes, source systems, vendor data, current pain points, target use cases and security constraints.

02 Model

Design the client data model

Define equipment identity, hierarchy, functional-location model, metadata standards, governance roles and master-record rules.

03 Ingest

Build the data pipeline

Extract from PDF, Excel, work orders, engineering diagrams, CMMS, ERP, IoT sources and vendor packs.

04 Govern

Clean and validate

Standardise, classify, deduplicate, match, approve, score confidence and create lineage across records.

05 Activate

Unlock priority use cases

Deploy search, dashboards, maintenance visibility, IoT overlays, hierarchy navigation and analytics.

06 Operate

Support and improve

Embed stewardship, monitoring, enhancements, new data sources and additional use cases over time.

Pilot options

Low-risk starting points.

The first engagement should be specific enough to prove value and broad enough to test the equipment model.

One facility pilot

Build an Equipment Core for one platform, vessel, refinery unit or processing area.

One asset class pilot

Start with pumps, compressors, valves, instruments or safety-critical equipment.

One use-case pilot

Focus on maintenance visibility, equipment search, vendor pack consolidation or IoT-state attachment.

What the client receives

Every phase produces a concrete operating asset.

The delivery model is designed so that each stage leaves the client with reusable artefacts, decisions and governed capability—not just workshop notes.

Joint operating model

The Equipment Core is built with the client, not around the client.

Lucenox provides the architecture, engineering and governance capability. The client provides authoritative asset knowledge, data access, security decisions and operational validation.

Client contribution

Authoritative operational knowledge

  • Asset and facility SMEs
  • Data-source access and ownership decisions
  • Engineering taxonomy and naming conventions
  • Security, hosting and integration approvals
  • Validation of equipment identity and relationships
×

Shared delivery rhythm, backlog, validation sessions and decision gates.

Lucenox contribution

Equipment Core design and delivery

  • Discovery and target operating model
  • Data engineering, extraction and pipeline build
  • Equipment modelling and governance design
  • Integration, validation tooling and activation
  • Operational handover and improvement roadmap
Decision gates

Controlled progression from pilot to enterprise scale.

Each decision gate ensures the client can inspect evidence before expanding scope, adding sources or moving into operational use.

Gate 1Pilot scope approved
Gate 2Target model approved
Gate 3Migration quality accepted
Gate 4Use case validated
Gate 5Operational readiness approved
Gate 6Scale decision

Gate evidence

Each gate uses agreed evidence such as source inventory, model sign-off, quality thresholds, exception lists, security readiness and user validation.

Gate owners

Ownership can include engineering data leads, maintenance owners, IT/security, asset operations, product owner and Lucenox delivery leadership.

Gate outcomes

Proceed, refine, hold, rescope or expand. The model is designed to create confidence before enterprise roll-out.

Deployment options

Designed around data sensitivity and operational constraints.

Each client Equipment Core can be deployed within a model that aligns to security, data-residency, OT connectivity and operating requirements.

Client cloud

Azure or AWS tenant

Deployed inside the client's cloud estate with customer-owned controls and integration patterns.

Dedicated managed

Separate client environment

A managed deployment dedicated to one client, never a shared equipment database.

Hybrid

Controlled OT integration

Operational sources remain protected while approved feeds publish governed context into the Equipment Core.

On-premises

High-control environment

For clients with strict security, sovereignty or operational constraints that require local deployment.

Scale path

From pilot proof to enterprise equipment truth.

The pilot is not a throwaway prototype. It becomes the first governed slice of the client's wider Equipment Core.

Connection to Field Live Stream

Live operations need governed equipment context.

Lucenox does not replace SCADA, DCS, historians or CMMS/EAM systems. The Equipment Core links approved live telemetry and operational event sources to trusted equipment identities, hierarchy, maintenance context and data lineage—turning raw signals into governed operational context.
