For planning your maintenance strategy, Lifecycle Information Services periodically provide you with detailed information on the product life cycle of the utilized components.

The Lifecycle Information Services have a modular structure so that you need only request information that you actually require. Each of the following three methods returns a plant-specific report as result. You can decide for yourself how comprehensive you want this report to be.

• Basic Information
  Product Lifecycle Status focusing on analysis of functional obsolescence
• Extended Analysis
  "Basic Information" module and analysis of product-related statistical mean time between failures (MTBF)
• Comprehensive Operation
  "Extended" module supplemented with plant-specific information on updates/upgrades and general recommendations
