A leading organization recognized the need to improve plant availability, reduce product waste, and shift away from a reactive maintenance culture. To meet these goals, they partnered with Nexus Global to conduct a comprehensive strategy review.
The initiative began with a focused pilot study at one site, chosen for its readiness to embrace change. During this initial review, data, such as preventive maintenance schedules, operator rounds, and failure history were collected and analyzed. An experienced cross-functional team, including operations staff, trade groups, and reliability engineers, participated in intensive workshops designed to align practices and set a new standard for maintenance excellence.
The workshops focused on several key areas:
Embedding all maintenance work into the CMMS to ensure full visibility and accountability.
Training
teams to identify value-adding and non-value-adding tasks and propose practical alternatives.
Recognizing existing skills, identifying gaps, and addressing upskilling needs across the organization.
Developing management KPIs and leadership targets to align maintenance and operations.
Preparing the business for standardized planning practices and long-term strategy management.
Following the success of the initial review, the same structured approach was rolled out across nine sites. High-intensity, short-duration workshops allowed teams to standardize practices while building ownership at every level of the organization. This comprehensive review enabled the company to break away from quick fixes and firefighting, establishing a culture rooted in proactive maintenance and continuous improvement.
