Abstract
Following a systematic review of the existing literature and
the development of a model, the research methodology involves the use of
structured questionnaires and semi-structured interviews – a mixed-methods
approach based on operational data on the asset's functionality. The findings
from the asset data suggest that the adoption of blockchain and digital twin
technologies substantially enhances the effective functionality of assets
installed in telecoms-based stations. However, the intricacy of integrating
these 4IR technologies with conventional assets, as well as evidence from
questionnaires and interviews, further suggests that they provide a foundation
for the digitalisation of maintenance methods, resulting in substantial
improvements in operational and maintenance effectiveness and efficiency. The
blockchain and digital twin technologies accelerate a predictive maintenance method
by proactively identifying unexpected asset failures, thereby lowering
mean-time-to-repair and operating expenditures.
