Smart Meters: predictive maintenance with condition monitoring
Understanding Condition Monitoring:
Condition monitoring (CM) is a maintenance strategy that predicts machine functioning and safety by combining machine sensor data that measures vibration and other parameters (in real-time) with innovative machine monitoring software. This approach allows plant maintenance technicians to remotely monitor the functioning of each piece of machinery while also providing a comprehensive view of mechanical operations. When a change in machine health is detected, condition monitoring software sends an alert, allowing your maintenance technicians to assess the situation and determine whether corrective action is needed immediately.
Tеchnologiеs usеd in condition monitoring:
Condition monitoring is a key component of predictive maintenance, as it allows you to detect and diagnose faults in your equipment before they lead to failures or downtime. Using various methods and technologies, you can collect and analyze data on your assets' performance, health, and condition, and take proactive actions to optimize their efficiency and reliability.
IoT:
One of the primary driving forces behind condition monitoring is the advancement and proliferation of IoT devices, which allow you to collect and transmit data from your equipment in real time. IoT devices can measure various parameters, including vibration, temperature, pressure, humidity, sound, and more, to provide insights into your assets' operating conditions and potential issues. These IoT devices can be connected to wireless networks, cloud platforms, and edge computing, allowing you to store, process, and access data remotely and securely.
Data analytics and AI:
Data analytics and AI allow you to extract meaningful information and patterns from your data and make better decisions based on it. This helps you perform a variety of tasks, including data cleansing, feature extraction, anomaly detection, fault diagnosis, root cause analysis, and predictive modeling, while also providing you with actionable recommendations and alerts. Furthermore, data analytics and AI can take advantage of machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks, allowing you to learn from your data and continuously improve your models.
Cloud computing:
Cloud computing is fundamentally changing how we approach condition monitoring. Instead of being confined to on-site servers and limited processing power, cloud storage allows vast amounts of data to be securely stored and accessed from anywhere with an internet connection. This flexibility empowers real-time monitoring and analysis, regardless of location. These cloud-based solutions unlock the potential of advanced analytics and artificial intelligence. By integrating data with other sources and platforms in the cloud, businesses can leverage powerful algorithms to gain deeper insights into equipment health and predict potential issues before they become critical failures.
Machine learning:
Machine learning is transforming the way we monitor the condition of machinery. By collecting data from sensors and measuring vibration and temperature, we can analyze this information to forecast potential equipment issues before they lead to expensive breakdowns. This proactive approach allows us to shift from reactive maintenance, where we only fix things after they've broken to preventive maintenance, where we address problems before they escalate. This not only saves money but also ensures that operations run smoothly without unexpected interruptions.
Building a Condition Monitoring Solution with Smart Meters:
Data Acquisition and Preparation:
The first step involves gathering high-frequency energy usage data from smart meters installed throughout your facility. This data should capture information at both the equipment and facility levels. To create a comprehensive data pool for analysis, this smart meter data needs to be seamlessly integrated with existing data sources such as equipment records and historical maintenance logs. Once collected, data quality is ensured by addressing missing values, outliers, and inconsistencies. Preprocessing involves data transformation, normalization, and feature engineering to prepare it for use in predictive analytics models.

Making of Monday
This week I offer up a deleted scene from Pining in Preschool chapter 30, where Obi-Wan and Anakin come back home again after reconciling at Qui-Gon’s after their big fight.
I had a major habit of throwing SO MUCH into every chapter of PiP. Part of it was I did want them going through a lot, it was what pushed them to work through their collective baggage to arrive in a much better place. BUT a lot of it was I was new to writing and figuring out pacing and crammed in a ton, worried about showing the downtimes when big things weren’t happening.
This scene got cut because it was leading to Anakin being sick - he was going to wake up in the morning super sick and Obi-Wan was going to take care of the kids and take care of everything work on rebuilding trust and showing the kids he wasn’t going anywhere.
Too much.
[edited to add: ALSO I can’t really remember but I think i had previously cut or at least significantly reduced the interaction between Anakin and Quin when he asked him to come take care of Boga so he and the kids could flee the Obi-Wanless house go camping for a few days]
I instead ended chapter 30 on a positive note at Qui-Gon’s cabin, and then had chapter 31 be the family camping trip where they have family time and solid communication and rebuild that trust all together.
Read below the cut for the deleted scene
***
Luke’s head rolls to the side as Anakin lifts him from his car seat. Both twins had fallen asleep on the ride home shortly after leaving Qui-Gon’s cabin in the woods, as soon as they were convinced that Obi-Wan was coming as well. He arrives to ease Leia into his arms, snoring softly.
“What is Quinlan doing here?” Obi-Wan sounds mystified as he eyes the extra car in the driveway as they pass by.
“Oh, I asked him to stop by and feed Boga while we were camping.” Anakin grunts as he shifts Luke to one side to open the door. From the entryway they can just see Quin sprawled on the floor with the ginger tabby kneading his stomach. “Make yourself at home, why don’t you,” he calls out.
“Excuse me for spending a couple minutes looking after this precious thing, like you asked.” Quin rolls his eyes as he stands. “You look like shit, Obes,” he frowns as he looks him over. “Uhhh you too, kid. Is everything -”
“I don’t think we like camping,” Anakin mumbles in his direction. Now that he’s home everything must be catching up to him, he feels leaden as he moves to take Leia from Obi-Wan. “Take your time and hang with Quin if you want, inspect the damage. I’ll put these guys down and then pass out myself. I’m dead tired.”
“I’ll bring her up first,” Obi-Wan attempts to protest, but Anakin ignores him and shifts her out of his arms with ease of practice. “I don’t know how you do that,” Obi-Wan smiles softly as he watches him adjust one child on each hip and move to the stairs.
“It’s my workout. Got to maintain my dad bod,” Anakin purses his lips in an air kiss as he walks away.
“Oh love, you do not have a dad bod,” Obi-Wan corrects, mostly to himself. Quinlan snorts and scoops up the cat as he plops down on the couch with a scrutinizing look. “Go on then,” Obi-Wan sighs, sinking down with exhaustion. “Get on with it.” He figures he’d rather just get the inquisition over with, he wants to get upstairs to bed. To Anakin.
“Come on Obes, don’t be like that. You look like you’ve been on a bender.”
“I was not,” Obi-Wan snaps, his eyes flashing. “And I’m alright, Quinlan, just exhausted. Thank you for looking in on Boga.”
Quin narrows his eyes. “Why did he ask me?”
“Hmm?” Obi-Wan asks distractedly as Boga lands in his lap and he pets her absently behind the ears glancing wistfully at the stairway.
“Why did your boy toy, who avoids contact with me at all costs, craft a cryptic message worthy of the CIA to ask me to take care of your cat? It’s not like you to take off on an unplanned camping trip. And you just returned in separate vehicles looking like you’ve come home from war. ”
Obi-Wan holds the cat to his chest gently in stark contrast to the rock hard stare he turns onto Quinlan. “He is NOT my boy toy.” He grits his teeth and seems unwilling to address the rest of his friend’s astute observations.
Quin seems to pick up as much and softens his stance. “I just want to make sure you’re alright.”
“Yes! Your concern is noted, but I can take care of myself, thank you. Secondly, I am fine. Just very tired at the moment.”
“Okay, okay, I can take a hint,” Quin rolls his eyes as he makes for the door.
Obi-Wan snorts in disagreement. “That would be a first” and
“That reminds me: I’m pretty sure you guys owe me a favor now so I’ll let you know when I’m ready to cash in on that: I have a couple of ideas in mind -“
“Goodnight, Quinlan!” Obi-Wan shoves him toward the door without any heat behind it. He’s just glad he can finally head upstairs to join Anakin. He doubts he would have slept very well the last few nights by himself, even if it hadn’t been for the mess of emotions that was absolutely impossible to keep at bay in the quiet of night; he’s become too used to sleeping with the weight of Anakin in his arms, snoring lightly into his chest.
Boga leaps out of his arms when he peeks into Leia’s room, a relief because he doesn’t know that Anakin would tolerate anything coming in between the two of them in bed this evening. He spends a few minutes lingering in each room, readjusting blankets and watching the rise and fall of chests through peaceful rest.
He’s overwhelmed with the realization that he could have lost this. All of this. He’s not sure at what point after seeing Anakin breathless and on his knees at Rex’s garage, red faced and stammering and perfectly disheveled, he started to imagine a future where he might not just find love but a whole family.
He can’t resist the pull of Anakin any longer. He enters the bedroom and immediately wraps the younger man in his arms. It would seem Anakin had face planted onto the bed directly after his shower, his hair and upper body soaking Obi-Wan’s clothes, his hips still wrapped in a towel. “Ugh, love, you didn’t dry off. You’ll get the pillows wet.” Obi-Wan complains without moving away, in fact, he hugs the wet body to his side even tighter.
“Too tired,” Anakin mumbles into the mattress. He lets out a small whine of protest, still unmoving, when Obi-Wan presses a chaste kiss to a damp shoulder and eases off the bed. He returns only moments later with sleep pants, which he maneuvers onto a supremely unhelpful Anakin after freeing him of the towel and gently patting him dry.
“I try to avoid saying this as a matter of policy, but Quinlan was right. You look terrible,” Obi-Wan murmurs, taking in the bags under Anakin’s eyes as he rolls him onto the pillow. Anakin spares a critical glance that lets Obi-Wan know he hasn’t missed the swollen eyes, gaunt cheeks, and unkempt hair and beard on the face looking down with him in concern.
“ ‘M better already,” Anakin slurs sleepily, and Obi-Wan didn’t think his heart could melt any further until an arm reached up for him. “Hold me tonight?” There isn’t a single night that Anakin doesn’t end up chasing Obi-Wan across any space that manages to move between them during the night, closing the distance and tangling their bodies together even in his sleep, but the request is endearing and Obi-Wan is happy to oblige.

IBM Maximo AWS Deployment Strategies
The Business Value of IBM Maximo, a recent IDC report that surveyed 9 companies with an average of 8,500 employees, found that adopting IBM Maximo resulted in a business benefit of USD 14.6 million per year per organization, 43% less unplanned downtime, and USD 8.6 million in total equipment cost avoidances.
One comprehensive, cloud-based application platform for asset monitoring, management, predictive maintenance, and reliability planning is IBM Maximo Application Suite (MAS). Maximo optimizes performance, extends asset lifecycles, and reduces downtime and costs for high-value assets using AI and analytics. Hosting Maximo on a scalable infrastructure maximizes performance, hence the current tendency is to shift it to the cloud. In this trip, MAS migration and deployment on AWS Cloud are gaining popularity.
The growing demand for Maximo AWS Cloud migration
Migrating to cloud helps enterprises improve operational resilience and dependability while updating software with minimal effort and infrastructure constraints. Due to the growing demand for data-driven asset management, firms must aggregate data from diverse departments to identify trends, generate predictions, and make better asset management decisions.
Last April, IBM said Maximo 7.6 and add-on support would stop in September 2025. All Maximo EAM customers must upgrade to the latest cloud-based MAS. Maximo migration and modernization are become increasingly significant to clients.
IBM has released new containerized versions of Maximo Application Suite as a Service (MAS SaaS) on AWS Marketplace with Bring Your Own License (BYOL) to assist Maximo migration to AWS. MAS SaaS on AWS is another milestone in Maximo’s integration of Monitor, Health, and Visual Inspection into a unified suite.
What makes MAS SaaS distinct
IBM Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) specialists use best practices to continuously maintain and administer MAS SaaS, a subscription-based AWS service. This partnership gives customers an industry-leading IBM asset management system underpinned by AWS’s size, agility, and cost-efficiency.
Upgrades and migrations to MAS 8 are possible with MAS SaaS. The data update is similar to prior upgrades, but ROSA and other dependencies require architecture changes. The migration is comparable to how clients transitioned from on-premise to Maximo EAM SaaS Flex, but with MAS changes. Perpetual on-premises customers would stop paying Service & Support (S&S) and purchase a SaaS subscription, on-premises Subscription License customers would start a new subscription, and existing MAS Flex and MAS Managed Service customers would start a new subscription to migrate to MAS SaaS.
Our IBM Consulting Cloud Accelerator (ICCA) technology lets firms plan migration and upgrade strategies before investing.
Maximo migration strategy of a global energy firm
IBM worked closely with an energy company confronting the following challenges:
Infrastructure needed for latest Maximo version takes longer.
WebSphere, Maximo’s core, experienced high-availability and performance difficulties.
Lack of data fabric and integration layer hinders cross-application data interchange.
Complex setup, failures, and security with manual end-to-end deployment.
Since Maximo Application Suite 8 (MAS8) tackles industry issues like failure risk, escalating maintenance costs, sustainability, and compliance laws, the customer chose it. The client chose AWS Cloud for its deployment flexibility, scalability, high availability, and secure architecture.
Approach to solution
This is how IBM accelerated the energy company’s Maximo move to AWS:
Used Infra as a code to upgrade Maximo from 7.6.0.9 to 7.6.1.2.
IaC allowed instance spin-up for auto scaling. This automation reduces the time to spin up and execute the new environment and addresses multi-AWS availability zone deployment latency.
Used AWS DMS for data migration and schema conversion.
IaC spun the DR environment on demand to reduce database replication (DR) infrastructure and expense. DR capabilities update data in availability zone and DR area.
Achieved data exchange across applications using IBM Cloud Pak for Data and standardized integration using IBM Cloud Pak for Integration components.
Solution components
Maximum Enterprise Application Management (EAM) has a 3-tier design with these components:
HTTP/Web Tier and Application Tier using IBM WebSphere and HIS installed EC2 instance under private subnet for application security.
Database Tier uses AWS Oracle RDS with replication for DR under private subnet.
AWS best practices were used to configure VPC with public and private subnets.
Application servers and deployment manager were autoscaled by Auto Scaling Group.
Maximum web-based UI resolution for external access using AWS Route 53.
WAF was the initial line of defense against web exploits.
Integration of Terraform and CFT IaC scripts provided autoscaling architecture.
AWS Reference Architecture
Max on RedHat OpenShift Service on AWS (ROSA) helps clients
Containerized MAS 8.0 runs on RedHat OpenShift. AWS, IBM, and RedHat developed an IBM MAS on ROSA reference architecture to help customers inexperienced with production containerization. ROSA, a fully managed, turnkey application platform, supports IBM MAS configuration and offloads cluster lifecycle management to RedHat and AWS, allowing organizations to focus on application deployment and innovation. This means IBM MAS clients don’t need to develop, administer, or maintain RedHat OpenShift clusters.
Operating Model and Maximo Migration
Top 3 Maximo AWS migration accelerators
Clients can migrate to the cloud using three IBM MAS deployment methods on AWS Cloud:
ROSA-powered MAS SaaS on AWS
ROSA-powered AWS MAS
Customer-hosted ROSA
Why use customer-hosted ROSA
The customer-hosted ROSA option for hosting IBM MAS in a customer’s VPC with ROSA is powerful. ROSA is perfect for MAS deployments because it seamlessly deploys, scales, and manages containerized applications.
The benefits of this choice are enormous. Full control over the infrastructure while still subject to the organization’s monitoring, controls, and governance standards allows businesses to customize and adjust the environment to their needs. This control includes adding MAS integrations and enforcing cloud security and governance requirements. ROSA charges are combined into one AWS bill and drawn from any AWS enterprise agreement, simplifying financial management.
AWS enterprise agreements and Compute Savings Plans offer infrastructure savings for MAS implementations. Because the ROSA cluster operates under the customer’s AWS account, customers can buy upfront ROSA contracts and get a one-year or three-year ROSA service charge discount.
Why IBM for Maximo AWS migration?
Any modernization effort must include cloud migration. Cloud migration is not a one-size-fits-all method, and each organization faces unique cloud adoption difficulties.
IBM Consulting’s Application Modernization offering helps clients migrate and modernize AWS applications faster, cheaper, and more efficiently, reducing technical debt and accelerating digital initiatives while minimizing business risk and improving business agility.
IBM offers unique cloud migration services to accelerate customer application migration to AWS:
Cloud migration factory capabilities including proven frameworks and processes, automation, migrating templates, security policies, and AWS-specific migration squads speed up delivery.
IBM Garage Methodology, IBM’s cloud services delivery capabilities, ROSA, and AWS Migration tools and accelerators accelerate migration and cloud adoption.
ICCA, IBM’s proprietary framework for migration and modernization, reduces risk. ICCA for AWS Cloud automates various modernization procedures, simplifying and speeding up company agility. Before investing, businesses can plan migration and modernization strategies. Discover IBM Consulting Cloud Accelerator for AWS Cloud.
Our well-defined pattern-based migration methodology includes re-factor, re-platform, and containerization using AWS managed services and industry-leading tools to remove and optimize technical debt.
Finally, IBM offers customizable t-shirt-sized price models for small, medium, and large migration sizes, ensuring clients’ migration scope is obvious.
IBM helps clients migrate applications, like Maximo to AWS Cloud

Receive the Benefits From Preventative Maintenance
Air Solutions Canada believes in preventative maintenance programs.
Neglecting to maintain equipment can lead to it breaking down. The most expensive repairs are usually caused by neglect. It doesn't even take into consideration the costs of your plant going down, or the rental equipment needed during repairs.
We encourage clients to think about preventative maintenance as they do vehicle maintenance.
Do you change your tires when they start to wear or wait until you have an accident on the highway to do so? Do you change your oil every 5,000 kilometers or wait until you have a car that is leaking blue smoke?
However, nobody enjoys having to pay for something they don't really need. This is what we understand. Sometimes maintenance plans can seem expensive and unneeded. Even if your machine is running well, why invest in it?
Air Solutions Canada is a provider of turnkey industrial compressed-air solutions since 1997. Since 1997, we have provided turnkey industrial compressed air solutions to thousands of customers in the GTA as well as throughout Southwestern Ontario. Regular preventative maintenance has many benefits. Neglecting to maintain your system can lead to serious problems.
How can I save money on my company's preventative maintenance program?
You can save money when preventative maintenance is done on time and by qualified staff using quality parts, lubricants, or air tools in Canada. While you may need to spend some money on labour and parts, this is a reasonable investment that will reduce downtime, which can often be exponentially more costly.
Here are some specific results from an air compressor break down:
Lost production
Compressor rental fees (including hook up)
Inconvenience
Refuelling
Rush shipping
Emergency repair costs
Fast decision making
Catastrophic failure that goes beyond economic repair
Unplanned or unbudgeted replacement costs
Panic and Stress
Although it is difficult to place a dollar value on them, you are well aware of the toll they can take.
Is there technology to predict maintenance issues?
We are authorized to sell and install Kaeser's Sigma Air Manager 4.0 system (SAM) as a Kaeser dealer. SAM integrates all the components of your compressed gas system, monitors and analyzes performance in real time and provides alarms and warnings.
Remote diagnostics combined with need-based preventative management ensures maximum reliability in compressed air supply. Permanent availability of compressed system process data and the resulting analysis makes it possible to determine the best time for your compressed air system to be maintained and serviced.
What specific businesses preventative maintenance plans work well for?
Preventative maintenance plans are available for any customer, no matter how large or small. No matter how small the company is, it doesn't really matter whether they are a 1-person operation with a 3HP piston compressor, or a 1,000 person plant with a 5k HP compressor.
Our customers include all industries that use compressed air, including food, beverage, dairy, pharmaceuticals, automotive, paper, electronic, etc.

Why Regular Maintenance of CCTV Systems is Crucial
CCTV systems remain a popular means of security in today’s world, protecting homes, businesses, and public spaces. Slightly, just the installation of the CCTV system does not guarantee lasting safety and efficiency. Maintenance of such a system is important as it may present specific problems that could affect the functionality of the system and compromise its security. Working with the best CCTV company ensures that your system is regularly maintained and operating at its peak performance. Now, let’s discuss its importance and how the regular maintenance of your CCTV system is beneficial for the users – for more information, pay a visit to this link.
1. Ensures Optimal Performance
Like most physical equipment, CCTV systems are known to develop some kinds of wear and tear issues at certain times or periods. This is because their performance may be affected by dust, environmental conditions, or even if the programs were old, they’re operated on old programs. Daily checks need to be made on every part to guarantee that the cameras, the recording devices, and the storage devices are in their best form. Technicians can also check on the images taken such as focus, sharpness and resolution in order to check if the images taken can be used whenever the situation arises.
2. Minimizes System Downtime
Maintenance deferred is one of the greatest risks to face an organization since it exposes the system to the danger of an unplanned downtime. An ineffective camouflaged CCTV is the same as having no CCTV at all because there is always a weak link within the security system which makes your property open to vandals, theft or any criminal. Preventative regular checkups enable the foreman to discover problems yet at an early stage, thus reducing the threat of a significant failure.
3. Enhances Security Coverage
A weak surveillance system, for instance one that has not undergone proper maintenance could have lacks or substandard cameras that do not even record incidences as they happen. Maintenance checks can help confirm that every single camera is well positioned and that no structures or objects obstruct their view, and the areas they capture are the ones intended. Technicians are also able to bend certain angles, change some parts or even reset systems to achieve maximum security results.
4. Prolongs Equipment Lifespan
Purchasing a CCTV system is not cheap, and many times, replacing systems that have been neglected will not be cheap. Service does not only involve putting the system into the optimal state but also in improving its longevity. Cleaning the lenses, tightening the connections that are loose, calibrating the software eliminates the need for repairing or replacement of the lenses and your device in the future.
5. Ensures Compliance with Regulations
In many industries most of which are in the commercial and public sector there is a legal requirement set to ensure there is a functional CCTV system. Maintenance is important as it conforms to the country’s laws and best practices in the sector. It also includes documentation of the different maintenance activities carried out, this may be crucial during the different audits or even during investigations.
6. Cybersecurity Threats Identification and Mitigation
Most of the currently used CCTV systems can use network connections to transmit data, and as is known, such systems can be hacked. During regular maintenance sessions provided by the best CCTV company, updates for both the software and firmware can be implemented, as they are critical in patching common vulnerabilities. The technicians can also review password policies, firewall settings, and encryption options to protect the system against cybercriminals effectively.
7. It also ensures Storage and Backup Systems.
Security footage storage is an important determinant in any CCTV installation, especially for the business entity, which must retain its footage for some time. Maintenance involves confirming storage space and backup functionality as well as reviewing the situation where key footage has been overwritten or simply eliminated. This also proves useful if you need recordings at some point.
8. Reduces Emergency Repair Costs
It leads to reduced expenses on the emergency repairs of structures that have been weakened by heavyEquipment also decreases the likelihood of structural failure and resultant extensive costly repair services.
Emergency types can be rather expensive and inconvenient. Routine maintenance means you are able to identify problems that are small and put them right before they grow into bigger issues. This way, there are no unexpected outages, and the total cost is still cheaper besides enhancing security constantly.
9. Stays Afloat with Modern Technology
The security industry is in a constant state of flux since enhancements in features and solutions enhance the operation of the CCTV systems. Maintenance checks are excellent when it comes to enhancing the part of the system, implementing new functionalities or features or even switching into smarter systems such as AI video surveillance systems. The only way to make certain is to cease adopting any of the modern trends of the system that is already outdated.
10. Creates Confidence with Security Practices
To be sure, your CCTV system is in good condition and working efficiently gives a certain level of reassurance. Whether it regards a house with your family or a store with your investments, a reliable system gives confidence in how you secure your interests. It is usually easier for employees, customers and any other stakeholder to feel secure within a given setting if they see that surveillance systems are actually in operation.
Best Practices for CCTV Maintenance
To ensure your CCTV system remains in top condition, follow these best practices:
Schedule Regular Inspections: Perform annual or even monthly, system checkups by certified technicians who will determine the health of the system.
Clean Components: The camera lens, the connections can also be obstructed by dust and debris therefore regularly clean these parts.
Test the System: Monitor tapes frequently and practice with the alarms, motion sensors, or recording options.
Upgrade Software: Make sure that firmware and software are always the latest and, and the newest so that there is no conflict and the lowest risk of security threats.
Maintain Documentation: Note all maintenance practices with a view of later using the records as references and ensure compliance has been met.
Partner with Experts for Reliable Maintenance
CCTV maintenance can be technically complicated and time-consuming, hence it requires dealing with experienced technicians. The best CCTV installation company in Saudi Arabia and other leading providers supply maintenance plans tailored to your specific requirements. They can discover issues that may not be readily seen during visual inspections and provide quick fixes to ensure the system's properties are preserved. Not only that, but hiring professional maintenance through the best CCTV company ensures you get a well-functioning CCTV system, along with expert advice on improving your security. These professionals offer warranties, provide ongoing support, and assist you in getting the best performance from your system.
Conclusion
Preventive servicing of CCTV systems is not only advisable – it is mandatory. In general, the advantages are obvious – from achieving optimal performance and avoiding any kind of system failure to protecting against cyber risks and increasing the life cycle of the given system. Regardless of whether you are a house owner or a commercial entity owner, embracing maintenance protects your property, properties, and your goodwill.
