The Challenge: Service teams have a compelling need to trace and understand product configurations as they evolve into as-maintained asset configurations, Service teams are expected to minimize the turnaround time, minimize MRO costs, maximize operational availability and productivity.
Teamcenter for Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) is the answer. By providing the digital backbone between engineering and the point-of-service thru a Service Data Management solution, Teamcenter’s rich source of knowledge helps Service teams plan for optimal efficiency and productivity – such as determining what parts and materials are necessary to carry out an operation in their part of the world, what their local sources of supply are and what the valid alternates and substitutes parts are.
Teamcenter for MRO includes the following solutions:
- In-Service provides service organizations with total visibility to an entire base of capital assets, including access to configuration knowledge that comprehensively describes each asset in its in-service or operational state.
- Maintenance Planning enables service organizations to perform maintenance planning for capital assets ranging from components to entire fleets through the definition of maintenance and repair requirements, frequency of requirements, and work cards (procedures) and associated resource requirements.
- Maintenance Execution enables service organizations to execute an auditable maintenance process while retaining event histories that can be easily retrieved and reviewed on demand.
- Material Management enables enterprises to track and manage all of the parts, tools and equipment inventories used to maintain, repair and overhaul their assets.
The benefits:
- Configuration-driven MRO.
Configuration-driven MRO puts the in-service product or asset at the center of MRO functions – bridging the gap between the Logistics, Maintenance and Engineering communities, providing service teams with insight to what a product’s configuration is, what it should be and what maintenance operations, resources and materials are necessary to maintain its effective operation. Teamcenter enables you to establish feedback loops that bring the service concerns of field technicians to the designers and service engineers who develop your assets.
- Marketplace success and experience.
Teamcenter for MRO and its configuration-driven philosophy has helped customers achieve results from product/asset support systems across many industries and segments. As manufacturers prepare to deliver their complex long life products to the market place they are planning the service and support element of the business with Teamcenter as a core to support the identification, planning, and delivery of services. Proven PLM platform. Teamcenter-driven PLM solutions manage the majority of intellectual capital that defines today’s most complex assets before they reach the in-service stage. As a result, Teamcenter is uniquely positioned to link existing product and engineering data into your maintenance and material improvement programs.
- Scalability and openness.
Teamcenter provides modular and highly scalable solutions that enable you to address your highest business priorities first. You can deploy Teamcenter one step at a time and as your needs grow or you can extend your PLM environment in seamless increments. |
