TRUSTED BY MAINTENANCE AND RELIABILITY TEAMS AT:
UNPLANNED DOWNTIME ISN'T A MAINTENANCE PROBLEM.
IT'S A P&L PROBLEM.
One failed bearing on a critical asset can cost six figures in lost production, expedited parts, and overtime, while your team is stuck firefighting instead of preventing.
Every emergency repair is hours of lost production and unplanned spend.
A dashboard full of waveforms doesn’t tell you what to fix or when.
They don't need more noise, they need prescriptive guidance they can trust.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT WAITES
How long does it take to install?
Installation depends on how many assets are being monitored and the types of conditions. Most pilots are installed and up and running in days. Waites sensors are wireless and attached to your assets with industrial epoxy or stud-mounted so they can endure any environment.
Do I need IT involvement?
No. Sensors connect to our mesh network via a Waites cellular gateway. Your IT team doesn’t need to provision anything.
What kind of machines can I monitor?
Any rotating equipment: motors, pumps, fans, gearboxes, compressors, blowers, and more. If it rotates, we can monitor it.
How is Waites different from buying sensors from a traditional hardware vendor?
Most hardware vendors sell you the sensor that might not meet your needs and walk away. Waites is a complete service: sensors configured to your environments, monitoring platform, and dedicated analysts who review your data and deliver findings in plain language. You don’t just get readings; you get answers.
How quickly will I see ROI?
Most customers see payback in under 12 months, sometimes with the first failure caught.
What's the pricing model?
Waites has multiple flexible pricing models to fit your facility’s needs. Hardware, platform access, and 24/7 dedicated analysts monitoring are all included as a part of the Waites system. Most engagements begin with a focused pilot on 10–25 critical assets and scale from there. Investment varies by asset count and plant complexity, but customers typically see payback within the first 12 months.
Can I start with a pilot?
Yes. Most engagements begin with a pilot on your highest-priority assets to prove value before scaling.
What if my team has a vibration analyst already?
Great! We work alongside in-house experts. Many customers use Waites to extend coverage or handle continuous monitoring while their team focuses on diagnostics and projects.
