Managing battery warranties from suppliers is no different. Many integrators offer their own software tools to assist with warranty monitoring, and while these can be helpful, they often lack one important element: independence. Relying solely on their perspective is like skipping the home inspection and taking the sellers at their word.

That’s where independent third-party insights come in, offering a transparent, unbiased approach to warranty compliance and enforcement that puts asset owners and operators in control.

Why Independence Matters

A third-party predictive battery analytics provider acts like the home inspector, offering an unbiased view of the facts (the data) while providing expert human support when needed. An independent platform enables you to have a clear understanding of your system’s compliance with warranty terms. Here’s the advantage this gives you:

1. Consolidated Visibility Across Multiple Suppliers

For operators managing mixed asset fleets, one of the greatest challenges is navigating the differing—and sometimes contradictory—warranty parameters set by multiple suppliers. A predictive analytics platform like ACCURE consolidates all of those conditions into a single, intuitive platform. This eliminates the hassle of juggling multiple contracts and gives you a clear, unified picture of compliance across your entire fleet.

2. Continuous Monitoring with Preventative Alerts

While a BMS monitors individual battery conditions, it operates in isolation. A third-party platform continuously tracks operating conditions—such as State of Charge (SOC), Depth of Discharge (DOD), and temperature—across your entire fleet and compares them to warranty parameters. Preventative alerts flag issues like sensor malfunctions or operational trends long before they escalate into warranty violations, giving you time to take preventative action.

3. Neutral, Third-Party Data for Dispute Resolution

Supplier tools may provide data, but there is a clear conflict of interest, especially when a dispute arises. A third-party platform like ACCURE offers neutral, expert-validated insights that hold up during disputes. Again, acting as the home inspector, the platform provides objective evidence to support your claims, ensuring faster resolution. 

4. Confidence to Operate Aggressively

With unbiased insights, you can push your assets to peak performance without risking compliance. Instead of conservative operating strategies, you can maximize output, capture more revenue opportunities, and meet demand spikes—all while staying within warranty parameters.

How ACCURE Enables Transparent Warranty Management

Our predictive battery analytics platform, including the Warranty Tracker™ feature, is built to equip asset owners with the transparency they need to manage warranties effectively with:

  • Unified Compliance Management: Consolidate and monitor your compliance with warranty terms from multiple suppliers in one platform.
  • Proactive Continuous Monitoring: Stay ahead of breaches with preventative alerts and actionable insights.
  • Neutral Validation: Protect your investment in your assets with objective data that supports compliance and claims.

By offering an independent, third-party perspective, ACCURE fosters trust and transparency between asset owners, operators, and suppliers.

Key Takeaways

Just like you wouldn’t buy a home without an independent inspection, you shouldn’t rely solely on the supplier’s tools to manage your warranty compliance and enforcement. A third-party predictive analytics platform gives you the clarity and control you need to navigate complex conditions from multiple suppliers with confidence.
