Performance management system for multi-machine worksite
First Claim
1. A performance management system for use with a plurality of machines operating at a common worksite, the performance management system comprising:
- at least one data acquisition module configured to monitor performance of the plurality of machines; and
a controller in communication with the at least one data acquisition module and being configured to;
collect machine performance data from the at least one data acquisition module;
detect a performance irregularity based on the collected machine performance data;
analyze the collected machine performance data; and
determine which of a machine condition, an operator condition, or a site condition is the predominant cause of the performance irregularity based on the analysis.

Abstract
A performance management system for use a plurality of machines operating at a common worksite is disclosed. The performance management system may have at least one data acquisition module configured to monitor performance of the plurality of machines, and a controller in communication with the at least one data acquisition module. The controller may be configured to collect machine performance data from the at least one data acquisition module, and detect a performance irregularity based on the collected machine performance data. The controller may be further configured to analyze the collected machine performance data, and determine which of a machine condition, an operator condition, and a site condition is the predominant cause of the performance irregularity based on the comparison.

15. A performance management system, comprising:
-
a plurality of machines co-located at a common worksite;
a plurality of data acquisition modules located onboard the plurality of machines to monitor machine performance; anda controller in communication with each of the plurality of data acquisition modules and being configured to; collect machine performance data from each of the plurality of data acquisition modules; detect low productivity based on the collected machine performance data; index the collected machine performance data according to at least a machine identification and an operator identification; and determine which of a machine condition, an operator condition, or a site condition is the predominant cause of the low productivity based on the indexing. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17)
