Mainsaver Selected For State-Of-The-Art Waste Treatment Plants
Spidex Software has announced that Global Renewables, an innovative resource recovery specialist, has selected Spidex’s Mainsaver CMMS solution to manage engineering maintenance at its two newly-built state-of -the-art waste treatment facilities in Lancashire.
The new waste processing sites are the centrepiece of a 25-year, £2bn PFI project which has the capacity to process up to 600,000 tonnes of household waste per year, reclaiming the maximum amount of recyclables and converting the remaining organic fraction into renewable energy and compost.
“Mainsaver will give us a complete overview of how the heart of this facility is operating” said Gordon MacDougall, Project Director. “Unlike most waste-processing plants, the two new Lancashire facilities will have limited hours of operation – that means it is even more vital that our engineering strategy minimises operating time lost through machine breakdown.”
“Developing and maintaining such a strategy requires maintenance data that is reliable, accurate and freely available, so that we can address any issues that arise as quickly as possible.”
“Of all the CMMS systems we examined, Spidex’s Mainsaver solution was the option we were most comfortable with – it’s straightforward to use and supports technologies such as mobile working, bar-coding and RFID which is exactly the way we want to operate.”
The selection process was greatly assisted by the fact that Global Renewables’ site engineers took an instant liking to Mainsaver. Gary Burke, Regional Maintenance (Engineering) Manager had used a number of different CMMS systems previously and was in little doubt that he was looking at the right solution.
He explained; “I’ve been running engineering teams for most of my working life, so I know exactly what day-to-day information I need. To get that information, it’s crucial that the maintenance software we install is logical and straightforward for the engineers to use. Mainsaver ticked all the boxes.”
