Sentient Science

Sentient Science, a trusted third party to operators, provides material science and data science-based life prediction and life extension actions for major systems and critical components in the wind energy, aerospace and transportation markets. Sentient's DigitalClone Software helps equipment owners/operators and their suppliers reduce costs by a goal of 13% of revenues. The forward visibility that comes from material science-based digitalization creates new opportunities to extend asset life and increase profitability. The Operator network receives long, mid-term and short-term life predictions of each wind turbine in the fleet. Life extension actions are provided for each asset on the "3-D" watch list to prevent unplanned maintenance events, optimize supply chains and reduce insurance costs on healthy assets. Suppliers use DigitalClone Live to digitalize their offerings so operators can Buy on Life and price. The software helps OEMs understand opportunities in the marketplace. Sentient's "Content Factory" product is used to design new products and create an e-catalogue of offerings to reduce sales cycles and improve supply chain efficiencies. Sentient Science has competitively won more than $30 million in SBIR and STTR grants from the U.S. Government. The technology was validated by NASA in 2010 and has since been recognized by the White House in 2014 with the Tibbetts Award, Bloomberg New Energy Finance with the Pioneers Award in 2016, and Frost & Sullivan in 2017 with the New Product Innovations Award for Wind Prognostics.
