Case Studies: how we help our clients achieve results

MaxGrip's risk based inspection (RBI) revalidation safeguards integrity and improves availability and reliability of equipment longer-term.

MaxGrip’s assessment projected over $270,000 in net savings through asset management optimization within the first year.

To support the business and operational processes, and maximize asset availability at optimal cost, MaxGrip helped to set up the Maintenance, Reliability and Turnarounds (MRTA) Tools & Data Program.

MaxGrip optimized maintenance productivity in two stages. First we fixed the basics and optimized PM routines. In the second stage we optimized the maintenance build in CMMS. This saved thousands of man-hours worth over $ 1.75 million year on year.

Heijmans Infrastructure division uses predictive analytics to extend lifespan of roads and lower costs.

MaxGrip’s experience in Oil and Gas and good cooperation with the client, provided effective solutions for cost control and more condition-based maintenance, yielding a Hands on Tool Time reduction of 10,000 hours every year.

For subcontractors, MaxGrip performed a Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) study for a major refinery expansion project. Speed was of the essence, and MaxGrip provided rapid EAM deployment.

MaxGrip’s commitment to get things done in the simplest manner made a big difference. Using our own database as a bridging tool, we were able to create the Bill of Materials (BoM’s) and Spares files for a new FPSO in a matter of months.

A German Oil and Gas producer is expanding its asset base and activities. In two pilot projects, MaxGrip laid the foundations for global asset management by standardising the asset management and risk mitigation methods.

MaxGrip developed a strategic blueprint for the maintenance organization and deployment model for the global roll-out.
