Specialty chemical producer selects Siveco China to implement a CMMS for its largest and most technologically-advanced plant worldwide

The specialty chemical subsidiary of one of the world's largest integrated oil and gas companies has selected Siveco to implement a CMMS in its new Chinese plant. The plant, currently under construction in the Changshu Economic Development Zone, is the group's most technologically advanced. Upon completion by the end of 2012, it will also be the group's largest.

Siveco has pioneered the concept of implementing maintenance systems during the construction of a plant, thus supporting start-up and enforcing good preventive maintenance habits from day one. The CMMS will cover the entire maintenance management scope: equipment structures and technical documentation, corrective maintenance, preventive maintenance and inspections, stock and purchasing, as well as management dashboard and reporting.

For this project, Siveco was strongly recommended by existing chemical industry customers in the Changshu area. This new reference further strengthens Siveco's presence in the Chinese chemical market, where traditional "EAM" suppliers have a long history of failed projects. Key Siveco customers in this industry also include Arkema, Bayer, BBCA & Galactic, Evonik, Hanwha, Sichuan Lutianhua, etc.

Siveco is the largest maintenance consultancy in China. Based on a long experience of "maintenance with Chinese characteristics", Siveco has developed a unique approach to address the needs of plants, facilities and infrastructures owners in China through the utilization of technological tools. While the market has historically been plagued by IT suppliers without understanding of industrial reality, Siveco is run by maintenance people for maintenance people, focusing on obtaining rapid and sustainable improvement.

Siveco supports best practices in maintenance, facility management and risk prevention through a range of services including assessment, maintenance engineering, CMMS implementation, etc. Siveco provides a suite of very intuitive mobile solutions "for the worker of tomorrow", known as bluebee^®, running on its own cloud computing platform and compatible with any back-office maintenance system (COSWIN, Maximo, SAP PM, Datastream, etc.).

Siveco has over 60 customers across more than 500 sites in China, including ABB, Alstom, ArjoWiggins, Arkema, Beijing Oriental Plaza, Brose, Carrefour China, Changcheng Property Group, CNEEC, Danfoss, Expo 2010 pavilions, GDF Suez, IKEA, International Paper, Kerneos, Nokia, Saint-Gobain, Sichuan Lutianhua, Sogefi, State Grid, ZF, etc.
