In this way, the predictive algorithm of the artificial intelligence self-learns and continuously improves its ability to assess data and parameters which are sensitive for maintenance, making the predictive maintenance increasingly accurate and timely and reducing the number of interventions and the related costs of the maintenance department for the user of the plant or machinery.<\/p>\n<p>More precisely, the benefits of the predictive maintenance systems consist in the reduction of labour costs related to the maintenance; in the reduction of production downtime; and in the reduction of the costs related to replacement of the machinery.\u00a0Predictive maintenance also improves the worker safety conditions, with the reduction of the risk of accidents and a better regulatory compliance. Just as it allows the supplier to sell a maintenance service alongside the machinery or plant.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The responsibilities connected with the use of predictive maintenance and the protections to be adopted<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>But such a digitalization of the business processes entails wide responsibilities of both the supplier and the user of the machinery, which must be supported with the adoption of policies appropriate to, and consistent with, the laws and regulations in force.<br \/>\nFirst of all, it is necessary to introduce, within the companies, appropriate regulations on the use of these technologies, with implementation of all the security measures aimed at avoiding the risk of data theft, serious liability and heavy sanctions.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the acquisition, the knowledge and the management of a large quantity of data, by the supplier, to organize and calibrate the maintenance interventions mean that the same:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>will become aware of the data relating to the production processes and the sales volumes, with the associated implications with regards to civil and fiscal liability;<\/li>\n<li>will adopt decisions on the maintenance timings and modalities to be carried on the machinery, with the related implications on the workplace health and safety\u00a0matter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>How will these liability implications be regulated?<br \/>\nCan the user of the machinery exempt himself from liability, passing it on to the supplier which carries out remote maintenance?<br \/>\nOr will both be jointly liable?<br \/>\nWhat about criminal liability?<br \/>\nWhat about liability under the Italian Legislative Decree 231\/2001?<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"display: block !important;
