Why the Port Invested in APM Training (World‑Class Goals)
To sustain world‑class berth productivity and equipment availability, the port needed consistent skills, common work standards, and reliable closeout data across maintenance teams.
“The port was experiencing continuous equipment breakdowns which delays ship loading, causing turnaround time to be highly variable,” confirms Larry Olson, Nexus Global Managing Director. “This can potentially lead to lost profits/penalties due to missed loading time agreements. With proper Asset Performance Management (APM) training, we can optimize their current maintenance utilization and execution to improve asset management and maintenance decision-making. As a result, the client will see increased efficiency and faster vessel turnarounds.”
What the Program Covers
Role‑Based Curricula (Planners, Supervisors, Technicians)
- Structured paths with prerequisites and role outcomes
Blended Learning (Classroom, eLearning, OJT Coaching)
-
Cohort sessions + self‑paced modules + on‑the‑job reinforcement
Maintenance Measures & CMMS Closeout Discipline

Expected Outcomes for Ports & Transshipment Hubs
Participants gain common language and tools; leaders see better schedule adherence, clearer KPIs, and faster time‑to‑competency—forming a foundation for world‑class performance.
Olson concludes, “By removing the “fat” from the process and the non-value-adding activities, we can concentrate on real value and return. Our training program will equip the maintenance team to accurately identify and mitigate failure modes and create the detailed job plans necessary for quality repairs. The client can expect to see minimized equipment downtime, reduced maintenance repairs cost, and improved asset reliability and availability."
