The project between Worcester Polytechnic Institute and Intel came out of a need by Intel Costa Rica for an improved sustainable equipment replacement plan. In order to remain competitive, it was important to create cost effective, efficient models for equipment replacement. The model, used with infrared and vibration analysis, will further reduce operating costs. We also investigated and made recommendations on the development of additional local suppliers.
