Diversified maintenance plans strategies to support you at all times

Our maintenance plans strategies are made to support your machinery long term, which means not only offering aid when there’s a problem, but catching problems before they even come up.

Preventative maintenance:

We visit and look over your equipment to identify early signs of wear and tear and replace parts in order to avoid corrective maintenance needs later, optimize costs and uptime, and increase output. Our experts have defined over year the best suiting maintenance strategies that balances both, work to be done to keep the equipment running reliable and besides the effort to spend on site.

Corrective maintenance:

If an issue arises, we provide quick support to get you up and running again, either through field personnel or through SIG Remote Services. Our quick reaction times help shorten downtimes and save money by getting your equipment going as soon as possible.

SIG Smart Maintenance - From reactive to proactive maintenance

For us, maintenance isn’t just a service we offer, but a process we’re always working to improve and optimize. Our aim is to catch issues before they arise so that our customer can concentrate to run their equipment. This is why we are striving to increase the amount of proactive service.

We’ve implemented digital tools that help us on that journey. We call this SIG Smart Maintenance.

 

We’re the first in the industry which integrated a Field Service Management and Asset Performance Management software to improve the way maintenance is being done. Our Field Service teams are equipped with tools and software that help them planning their actions and support them during their work on site. Digital documentation helps us to build a better understanding of challenges in the field and how to prevent issues for future.

Our Asset Performance Management software is a digital solution utilizing connectivity, cloud computing, and analytics to synchronize information from your filling machine and the work done on site to shift maintenance solutions from preventative to proactive (see also SIG Asset Health Monitoring).

 

We offer services globally and operate four reliability centers (in Brazil, Thailand, Germany, and Dubai) where we transform data into insights for our customers. By analyzing data, we can offer higher Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), higher first-time fix rates, and proactive solutions to your maintenance concerns.
