Digitize Your Services with APM Studio
The Low-Code Platform to Accelerate Industrial App Development & Deployment
Trusted by lighthouse OEMs and Asset Owners for Digital Servitization, APM Studio accelerates time to market with branded, IP-protected solutions that can run anywhere.
What is APM Studio?
APM Studio is a low-code platform for OEMs, asset owners, and service providers to quickly build and deploy industrial applications. It combines real-time data, analytics (ML, Bowtie, logic), and semantic models in one environment—letting you digitize expertise and deliver branded, IP-protected solutions.
Deploy on embedded devices, on-prem, or in the cloud, with consistent diagnostics and predictive insights across all setups.
Data Connectivity Made Easy
APM Studio offers standard interfaces to connect with control systems, PLCs, historians, databases, enterprise systems, and cloud platforms—supporting both real-time and historical data flows for seamless integration.
Build for Scale
APM Studio uses Classes and Objects to standardize data across assets, making it easy to replicate applications and scale deployments consistently across multiple locations.
Process & React
Integrate AI, logic, and FMECA-linked Bowtie models into one workflow to assess risk, detect issues in real time, and support smarter maintenance and operations.
Visualize in Web-Based Real-Time Dashboards
Create role-specific dashboards with real-time data, trends, and reports, or integrate with tools like Power BI using the REST API for centralized performance insights.
Run Anywhere On-Premises or in the Cloud
Built with containers and platform-agnostic design, APM Studio runs diagnostics and analytics reliably on embedded devices, edge setups, or in the cloud.
Built-in Security
APM Studio safeguards your data, system access, and intellectual property with built-in industrial-grade security to ensure safe and reliable application deployment.
Its low-code environment has drastically reduced our development time, while still giving us the flexibility and depth we need.
For six years, we’ve been using the embedded version of APM Studio on our device. Within APM, we develop all diagnostic and control functionalities. One of the new features we made in APM is on-the-spot report generation for real-time trend analysis and insights.
Beyond embedded use, we also apply APM Studio in parts of our production automation. The built-in dashboards and solid I/O handling of several external systems with various communication protocols make it a reliable choice there too.
With regular software updates, APM continues to evolve alongside our needs. It’s a powerful and flexible platform.

FOCUS-ON x APM Studio
In Q3-2019, FOCUS-ON partnered with UReason to co-develop an embedded valve control, diagnostic, and prognostic solution. By Q1-2020, the ARM32-based FOCUS-1 device was live, running algorithms for real-time control, abnormality detection, and fail-over capabilities. The solution, developed in APM Studio, connects to multiple sensor data streams and is deployed as a Docker image.
Value to FOCUS-ON:
- Full control over solution updates and development
- Reduced reliance on external development teams
- Empowered in-house R&D teams to manage and maintain the solution
- Adopted by major customers like Nobian, Total, and ArcelorMittal
- APM Studio supports ongoing product enhancements, calibration processes, and automated testing
FOCUS-ON x APM Studio
In Q1-2023, Serafima partnered with UReason to develop a Reliability as a Service solution for monitoring rotating equipment. By Q3-2023, the system was live, leveraging IO-Link sensors and LTE gateways to transmit data to the Serafima Cloud, where APM Studio processes it. The solution provides early warnings via email and SMS, enabling timely recommendations for specialists and customers.
Value to Serafima:
- Full control over solution updates and development
- Empowered internal IT teams to manage and enhance the solution
- Introduced remote monitoring services, boosting customer value
- Reduced travel time for rotation specialists
- Enabled ongoing product development and insights with APM Studio and UReason’s support
Control Valve App developed by APM Studio
UReason launched the development of a vendor-agnostic Control Valve App, delivering its first customer deployment by the next quarter. The plug-and-play solution uses data from process historians to diagnose issues such as packing wear, stiction, and positioner calibration, enabling actionable insights into valve health, performance, and remaining useful life.
Value to the user:
- Reduced inspection times and prevented valve failures
- Enabled proactive, condition-based maintenance strategies
- Improved planning for plant turnarounds
- Scaled as a plug-and-play solution, extending market reach
- Adopted by leading companies like BASF, Evonik and Huntsman
APM Studio is unique because we co-develop your digital solutions with you where needed.

How to Start?
1
Define Your Needs
We begin by understanding your requirements. Together, we’ll outline objectives, create UI mock-ups, and prepare test data sets—establishing clear, measurable success criteria for the Proof of Concept (PoC).
2
Plan for Success
A focused plan is key to success, and we’ll ensure the PoC is completed within a streamlined 6-week timeline. Collaborating closely with you and your stakeholders, we’ll design a roadmap that aligns with your vision and goals.
3
Execute and Optimize
Our dedicated teams will bring the PoC to life, executing the plan and delivering results. Along the way, we’ll review progress, align it with our objectives, and make necessary adjustments to stay on track and deliver value.

What Is Asset Performance Management?
Gartner defines Asset Performance Management (APM) as a market of software tools and applications designed to improve the reliability and availability of physical assets (such as plants, systems of equipment, and infrastructure) essential to the operation of an enterprise. It is an umbrella term for all the technologies focused on improving the performance of a physical asset.
How Do I Get Started?
Usually, we follow a simple process consisting of 4 steps:
- Data Scan – we conduct a 2-3-day asset data scan on your critical assets to evaluate the organisation’s data quality, availability and completeness;
- Business Case – we then work together and assess if there is an opportunity for a business case within the organisation;
- (optional) Organisation Readiness – we assess whether the company has a clear strategic commitment towards entering Industry 4.0 and the right resources and processes to take immediate action;
- Proof of Concept – we then work together in order to create a proof of concept for a tailored solution within the company.
If you have more questions regarding the process, feel free to contact us.
Do I Own the Data?
Generally, the owner of the asset is also the owner of the data. In case you want to create additional services based on the asset data, more detailed agreements will be made for the data ownership.
Is My Data Safe?
In most cases, we provide our software on premise running on a server of the customer or a private cloud. Our customers take care of the data security and we support the requirements. In case of a cloud offering, we are also using different security protocols including advanced encryption and hiding, amongst others.
How Long Does the Implementation Take?
The length of implementation is dependent on the urgency of the transformation and the available resources. Apart from that, the quality, availability and completeness of the current asset data is also important. Fast implementation can be finished within weeks but larger and more complex projects could take more time.
Where Can I Deploy the Software?
Our APM software can be deployed on a large variety of hierarchical levels:
- On a chip in a device;
- On edge computers managing different devices;
- On a server, both on-premise or in the cloud.
