Brightly Software, a Siemens company, will demonstrate how manufacturers can bridge the gap between shop floor operations & maintenance and top floor management with Asset Essentials on Stand J46 at Maintec 2026. Maintec 2026 forms part of Smart Manufacturing Week 2026 and takes place at the NEC Birmingham from 3-5 June 2026.
The event marks one of the first major UK industry showcases for Asset Essentials as Brightly expands its presence in the UK manufacturing sector.
At Stand J46, there will be live demonstrations of Asset Essentials, showcasing how it can transform maintenance strategy from reactive to predictive. This enables organisations to understand how real-time machine data can automate maintenance workflows, trigger work orders, support planning and scheduling, and improve visibility across maintenance, engineering, and operations.
About Asset Essentials
Asset Essentials gives manufacturers one platform to control asset management, work orders, asset lifecycles, spare parts inventory & purchasing, compliance, analytics and reporting. It also connects older and previously disconnected assets through smart IoT-enabled technology. This technology allows its users to easily identify and maintain poorly performing assets before they become a major problem. If assets do fail, automatically generated work reports ensure you minimise downtime, saving users time, money and resources.
As a Siemens company, Brightly Software brings together enterprise asset management (EAM) and computerised maintenance management system (CMMS) capabilities with direct integration to Siemens industrial automation technologies, including WinCC SCADA and Siemens PLCs.
Tom Reames, Account Director, Brightly Software, comments: “Maintec provides a great opportunity for us to introduce Asset Essentials to the UK manufacturing market. Our mobile-first CMMS and Asset Management is built for modern operations, and at the event, we will be demonstrating how connected maintenance can help manufacturers improve uptime, visibility, and operational efficiency. Asset Essentials connects maintenance technicians, assets, and work orders in one intuitive platform with AI Insights. As a Siemens company, we understand that many maintenance teams are running inconsistently because their software is disconnected from their machines. In utilising Asset Essentials, manufacturers can move beyond reactive maintenance by linking machine data directly into maintenance workflows and asset management processes. We look forward to welcoming visitors to our stand and sharing insights.”
