Refining and industrial processing facilities depend on accurate results and informed decisions to maintain operations and safety. Equity Software is pleased to introduce PlantManager SAGE®, combining fitness-for-service (FFS) rigor, enterprise scalability, and over 30 years of development into an integrated, cloud-native platform.
This complete collection of mechanical engineering tools leverages the latest API 579-1/ASME FFS-1 codes alongside the functionality of SagePlus™ to deliver new and alternative analytical FFS assessment results for in-service equipment.
“PlantManager SAGE represents the culmination of decades of fitness-for-service innovation,” said Valerie Magyari, Executive Vice President of Equity. “When we originally created SagePlus, we wanted to help owner-operators make informed decisions to reduce downtime and enhance safety. Today, PlantManager SAGE reflects our company’s ongoing commitment to advancing asset integrity through practical technology that performs in the most demanding industrial environments.”
Why This Release Matters
Maintenance and reliability teams operate under tight schedules, constrained resources, and evolving regulatory expectations. Too often these teams are siloed within a facility, making it difficult to share data and reports. PlantManager SAGE aligns mechanical integrity, inspection, and operations teams with shared visibility and clear handoffs. Teams can collaborate on the same data set, accelerate turnaround planning, and standardize best practices across sites, all without sacrificing technical rigor.
PlantManager SAGE is purpose-built to:
- Operationalize FFS across sites with standard methods and traceable workflows
- Improve inspection planning and resource allocation with data-driven insights
- Reduce unplanned outages via early identification of degradation mechanisms
- Streamline compliance with auditable, automated documentation
Cloud-Native by Design
Cloud-native platforms deliver operational and efficiency benefits that surpass traditional desktop software capabilities. By embracing the future of cloud technology, PlantManager SAGE is built for distributed operations and cross-functional teams.
- Anywhere, anytime access: Enable engineering, inspection, and maintenance teams to work from a single source of truth
- Secure, scalable architecture: Support multi-site deployment and future growth without infrastructure overhead
- Unified data model: Centralize digital asset records, inspection histories, and FFS evaluations for consistent decision-making
- Integrated reporting: Generate standardized, regulator-ready documentation in minutes
Fitness-for-Service at the Core
PlantManager SAGE integrates the depth and discipline of SagePlus into daily operations:
- Structured FFS evaluations aligned to proven methodologies
- Remaining life quantification and risk-based prioritization
- Degradation mechanism identification to inform inspection scope and frequency
- Decision support that translates analysis into actionable maintenance plans
By embedding validated approaches into the workflow, PlantManager SAGE helps teams make confident, defensible calls that protect safety and throughput.
Three Decades of Development, Now Accelerated
The new version brings forward more than 30 years of FFS engineering and software evolution, re-architected for collaboration and performance in the cloud. What began as a powerful desktop capability is now an enterprise platform that scales with your facilities, eliminates version drift, and ensures consistent application of standards across the organization.
