A method of remotely reducing downtime of an operational system includes directly accessing information from the operational system by a diagnostic computer, the information accessed from at least one prime mover controller, a user interface computer, at least one switch, at least one networking connection, and at least one sensor configured to sense and capture a measurable parameter of the operational system; transmitting the information from the diagnostic computer to an off-site operations center; using the information at the off-site operations center to monitor, review or improve status and performance of components within the operational system; using the information at the off-site operations center to assess communication status and connectivity issues of connections between the components of the operational system; and, communicating issues with the operational system from the off-site operations center to the operational system.

Method of and system for remote diagnostics of an operational system

An operation, communication, and executions facilitation system includes at least one modular system device including at least one onsite fixed-base camera configurable at an onsite location directed at job equipment for remote live operation viewing by at least one offsite actor. At least one onsite hand-held camera directable by at least one onsite actor at selected equipment for remote live viewing of custom images by the at least one offsite actor. At least one audio communication device usable by the at least one onsite actor, and at least one personal computer configurable to receive data from onsite equipment. A secured or dedicated network connected to one or more of the at least one modular system device. A data center in communication with the secured or dedicated network; and, at least one operations center at an offsite location configured to be manned by the at least one offsite actor and configured to receive data via the data center from the at least one modular system device. Wherein two-way communication between the at least one offsite actor and the at least one onsite actor is accomplished through one or more of the at least one onsite hand-held camera, the at least one audio communication device, and the at least one personal computer. A method of providing and facilitating real-time equipment maintenance, trouble-shooting, and targeted remote operational process assurance of an operation.
