1 Cloud Technology Solutions

2 Control and Monitoring Anywhere Anytime Today, managing assets and information in the field is at a premium. Protecting your investments and getting critical data in a cost effective manner has never been more important. Creating more efficient work processes that save time and money are critical. Control and monitoring (SCADA systems) have traditionally been expensive and complicated to configure and manage. AMI has changed the rules of the game and has a system that is both simple to use AND cost effective. AMI is a cloud technology company. AMI provides cloud infrastructure for communication, hardware, software, data storage and servers. Market segments include water management, agriculture, turf irrigation, pumping solutions, oil and gas, mining, lighting as well as other industrial processes. The company specializes in cloud based solutions that allow customers to manage, monitor and troubleshoot a variety of field based assets via any web enabled device while storing data in a cloud based data warehouse. Solutions from pumping systems to VFDs (variable frequency drives) and much more are now available in a simple, easy to use and cost effective package.

3 AMI understands the challenges of today s business climate. Doing more with less has become a way of life. The problem is how do we manage our time and resources better? How do we manage our assets and get information from the field better? How do we manage our resources (water and power) better? And how can we do this in a simple, cost effective method? Imagine better asset and resource management that actually saves time and money. Fewer man hours visiting sites, fewer associated costs (gas) and less wasted resources such as water and power. And imagine a system simple enough for a novice but with the technical capabilities to please the seasoned engineer. AMI provides proven technology and superior service to make all of this a reality. The AMI Vapor allows for remote cloud based management, alerting, scheduling, reporting and more for a variety of field based assets all from any device; desktop, laptop, cell phone, tablet.
