Standardized approach over the life-cycle of the agreement.
A structured process for maintenance outsourcing mitigates risks
ABB has a structured and world class methodology for maintenance, energy efficiency and sustainable plant performance improvement. Our global network supported by efficient execution centers will ensure adaptation of general and industry specific methodologies and tools. Our well defined processes with tough and supportive assessment will ensure safety, reliability and operational excellence.
Professional approach for both existing and new plants
To find solution to existing plants the Full Service approach is based on historical data and world class benchmark information. The starting point of our concept is customer’s strategy and future needs, followed by a flexible but controlled customization of processes and development of a maintenance management master plan.
For new plants ABB has developed a cradle to grave solution. In ABB Full Service® Greenfield, ABB takes a strong development role right from the beginning of the design phase. It will ensure that finalized maintenance plans, and a maintainable plant, are available at the moment production starts, while achieving the fastest possible ramp-up of production to high and sustainable level.
Partnership throughout the life-cycle of outsourcing
ABB understands that our customer’s strategies change and therefore our approach includes the process for the next steps after the outsourcing solution is implemented. At the end of the agreement term partners can together decide which maintenance solution will support the best customer's future business targets. Our solution enables continuation of the full outsourcing, a maintenance management model, strategic service agreements or termination for convenience. Each step is handled in a controlled and professional way, guaranteeing the best business case, and business fit, for the two partners going forward.
