    Abstract: Provided is an upgrade evaluation device for calculating cost in relation to the introduction effects of an upgrade menu. The present invention has: a performance data acquisition step for acquiring the performance data of an apparatus; and an effect calculation step for calculating, on the basis of the performance data, introduction effects based on a difference in performance when an improvement function for improving the performance of the apparatus is introduced and when the improvement function is not introduced; the introduction effects being calculated for each of a plurality of points in time in a prescribed period in the effect calculation step. There may also be calculated a cost exchanged between an improvement-function-supply side and the supplied side, the cost being based on the introduction effects calculated in the effect calculation step.

    Abstract: Techniques are provided that include receiving sensor data from sensors of the machine, service history data, previous dealership data, and owner input data. The techniques include generating a state of the machine and a state of each of individual components by processing such data. Some of such data are processed to generate the measure of projected productivity of the machine and the estimate of projected maintained life cycle and costs. The generated data are input to the machine optimization module to generate the optimal performance level of the machine and data indicative of the optimal performance level of the machine, which are processed to generate productivity data of the machine, which are transmitted to a customer-facing application for display or post-processing.
