Who are AIS?

James Fisher Asset Information Services (AIS) are a small, highly effective, and committed team of software professionals.

With proven leading-edge technology, we help clients achieve their ‘digital twin’ ambitions – that is digitising their complex industrial assets to allow them to be better managed, with software tools allowing for improved remote operations. But we don’t approach client problems with a piece of software. Instead, most of our time is invested listening to our clients’ challenges, understanding what pressures they face, what dreams they have, and then working diligently to make sure our approach will help them achieve their objectives – not ours.

Our core software, R2S brings powerful digital twin capability to teams tasked with managing assets and project lifecycles; presenting any site data in real-world context to plan better and make decisions faster - saving money, saving time, improving safety, and enhancing collaboration. We’re helping asset owners overcome challenges where technical complexity, remoteness, dispersed teams, high risk, and critical infrastructure feature.

The work we do isn’t easy. In fact, it’s very challenging. We have a fast-moving technology landscape, a set of clients transitioning from delivering traditional energy products to renewable ones, and of course the general theme of digital disruption in nearly every industry. It is a fun market to work in – if you like change and serious, real-world digital challenges.

What will you be doing?

• Responding to support requests and incidents reported by users and working to resolve requests for support in accordance with agreed service levels.
• Responding efficiently to all support queries via email, telephone and video conferencing.
• Working with an established team in a dynamic, hybrid working environment.
