Managing the aging of equipment and facilities

Deploy action plans and monitoring strategies for productivity, quality, and regulatory compliance, leaveraging study methodologies and expertise in equipment durability.
    • In the design phase:
      • Select critical materials and associated recommendations,
      • Define equipment and systems requiring adapted designs to facilitate maintenance and change throughout the facility life cycle
    • In the operational phase:
      • Design and deploy monitoring plans anticipating complex aging of facilities innacessible to humans,
      • Anticipate and target key maintenance interventions
    • Ensure alignment between investments, operating costs, future industrial operations and regulatory compliance
        • Conduct functional analyses to select support materials, guide equipment design, and optimize processes
        • Optimize and qualify your solutions through R&D programs (definition/monitoring studies and calculations)
        • Obtain targeted monitoring plans and expert expertise/diagnostics on your critical points thanks to:
          • Technology watch,
          • More than 50 years of experience in monitoring operating facilities (coupons and test specimens, non-destructive testing),
          • Work conducted in partnership with other industrials and/or research centers,
          • Consolidated experience through control and monitoring proposals for equipment from design phase
