Overview
How each tool is described
Dingo
What is DINGO?
DINGO is a predictive maintenance and asset-health platform for mining and other asset-intensive industries, centered on its Trakka software and Condition Intelligence services. Trakka consolidates equipment-condition data, applies predictive analytics, identifies developing problems, recommends maintenance actions, and tracks issues through resolution.
- Asset health workflow: Trakka combines data from sources including onboard sensors, machine operating data, oil and fluid analysis, vibration, thermography, visual inspections, ERP work history, and other condition-monitoring systems. Identified issues can then be prioritized, assigned corrective actions, and followed from detection through resolution.
- Predictive intelligence: proprietary analytics and machine-learning models help detect abnormal equipment behavior and emerging failure risks. DINGO combines these models with Condition Intelligence specialists who validate findings, interpret equipment context, prioritize recommendations, and help prescribe corrective maintenance rather than relying on automated predictions alone.
- Operational fit: Trakka connects with condition-monitoring systems, ERP platforms, CMMS software, and mobile or field devices. Corrective maintenance identified in Trakka can flow into existing work-order processes, while the mobile Trakka tools let technicians capture inspection data and teams review asset health away from the desktop.
- Commercial considerations: DINGO uses a consultation and demo-led enterprise sales process rather than publishing standard Trakka subscription tiers. Buyers should assess fleet size, equipment mix, condition-data sources, ERP/CMMS integration, implementation scope, mobile inspection requirements, and whether ongoing Condition Intelligence expert support is required.
DINGO is particularly relevant to mining and heavy-equipment operators that want condition monitoring converted into prioritized maintenance actions and tracked through resolution instead of receiving isolated equipment-health alerts.
Hitachi Lumada
What is Hitachi Lumada?
Hitachi Lumada is Hitachi’s digital transformation framework and operating model for combining data, IT, operational technology (OT), physical products, AI, and industry expertise. Rather than being one standalone software application, Lumada encompasses co-creation services, digital engineering, industry solutions, and technology used across Hitachi’s businesses.
- Co-creation and digital engineering: Lumada’s Customer Co-creation Framework brings together domain specialists, data scientists, designers, and engineers to define business problems and develop solutions. Engagements can extend from solution design and system integration to connected products and managed services.
- Operational applications: the Lumada ecosystem includes solutions for asset performance management, enterprise asset management, field service, industrial analytics, infrastructure inspection, monitoring, and other data-intensive operational workflows. These offerings use information from business systems, equipment, sensors, and other operational sources rather than relying on a single universal Lumada application.
- Lumada 3.0 and HMAX: Hitachi’s current Lumada 3.0 strategy places greater emphasis on AI applied to mission-critical and physical operations. HMAX by Hitachi is a next-generation solution portfolio that embodies this strategy, combining physical and digital asset data with domain knowledge and perception, generative, agentic, and Physical AI across Mobility, Energy, and Industry.
- Commercial and implementation model: Lumada is not sold as one standardized SaaS subscription with a single public feature or pricing structure. Buyers instead need to identify the relevant Hitachi, Lumada, or HMAX solution and scope the required data sources, OT and IT systems, integration work, operational environment, and supporting engineering or managed services.
Hitachi Lumada is most relevant to large organizations tackling complex digital transformation or operational challenges where enterprise data, physical assets, industrial systems, and AI need to be combined through a solution-specific implementation rather than a packaged point application.
