Allied Reliability and Octave Selected to Implement Reliability Program at Westervelt, Including Asset Performance Management Solution
Houston, TX — March 24, 2026 — Allied Reliability, a leading provider of reliability and asset management solutions, announced today that it has been selected by The Westervelt Company to implement a comprehensive reliability improvement program supported by the Asset Performance Management (APM) solution from Octave, the potential software spin-off from Hexagon AB.
The engagement will focus on strengthening The Westervelt Company’s asset management and maintenance practices through the development of structured reliability strategies, improved risk-based decision-making, and enhanced visibility into asset health and performance. Allied Reliability will lead the program design and implementation, leveraging its expertise in reliability engineering, maintenance optimization, and change management, while Octave Attune APM (formerly HxGN APM) will enable scalable, data-driven execution.
“This initiative represents a strategic investment in reliability and operational excellence,” said Bryan Martin, Manufacturing Director of The Westervelt Company. “By combining Allied Reliability’s proven methodologies with Attune APM’s technology, we expect to create a foundation that supports safer operations, improved asset performance and long-term sustainability.”
As part of the program, Allied Reliability will support initiatives including asset hierarchy improvement, asset criticality ranking, maintenance plan development, risk-based maintenance strategies, and reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) workflows. The Attune APM solution will serve as the system of record to ensure consistency, traceability, performance visibility, and continuous improvement across reliability activities.
“Allied Reliability’s role is to help organizations translate reliability strategy into business value,” said Gary Johnston, Vice President of Sales of Allied Reliability. “Working alongside Westervelt and Octave, we are focused on building a reliability program that delivers measurable value today while remaining adaptable as operating conditions and business priorities evolve supporting sustained value delivery.”
