When one of the world’s largest pulp and paper manufacturers realized their preventive maintenance (PM) strategy needed improvement, they turned to Nexus Global for support. At a specialty paper mill in North America, the client sought a reliable partner to develop and execute a complete PM route program that would be both robust and cost-effective.
This initiative marked the first mill in the organization to have all PM routes fully developed, scheduled, and executed with a plan for continuous optimization. Facing limited resources and a demanding timeline, the challenge was clear: create a sustainable program that strengthened the client’s reliability and asset care strategies while ensuring on-time delivery.
Nexus Global leveraged its Strategy Optimizer platform combined with onsite coaching to guide the client’s team through the process. The result was not only the successful implementation of the PM Optimization (PMO) program but also delivery ahead of schedule—demonstrating the value of structured methodologies and expert support.
This case study showcases how Nexus Global can help asset-intensive organizations across manufacturing, pulp & paper, energy, and utilities industries achieve measurable improvements in maintenance effectiveness, cost savings, and long-term operational resilience.
Download the case study to discover how a proven approach to PM Optimization delivered results faster than expected and set the foundation for reliability success.
A preventive maintenance (PM) route organizes multiple inspection, maintenance, or asset-care activities into an efficient sequence. Well-designed PM routes help technicians complete recurring maintenance work consistently while improving resource utilization and reducing unnecessary travel or delays.
