1. A method of improving reliability of an industrial asset, the method comprising:
collecting process variables associated with the industrial asset including one or more process variables selected from pressure, temperature, flow, position, level, speed, load, and differential pressure;
generating a list of statistical anomalies from;
filtering the statistical anomalies generated to operational activities or equipment performance;
identifying patterns which may lead to corrective maintenance from said statistical anomalies generated by equipment whose performance is deteriorating;
calculating a baseline using a time-weighted average over a standard average calculation;
producing a color-coded scalable visualization of the industrial asset;
collecting one or more real-time process variables and dividing by the time-weighted average for said process variable to provide a comparable value;
placing the comparable value on the color-coded scalable visualization of the industrial asset;
providing an aggregate single view that is scalable across the range of process variables of the industrial asset, wherein the aggregate single view visually represents all of the industrial asset; and
identifying instrument failures in real-time.
