CLIENTS & PAST PROJECTS
Stellantis Group
France
In 2015, the Stellantis Group, one of the principal automotive manufacturers worldwide, wished to delegate the management of their operational maintenance of its R&D test facilities for the whole of France.
In order to respond to this need, P2M intervened as maintenance manager for nearly 3,000 resources on the Group’s research and development sites, in Carrières-sous-Poissy, Poissy, Vélizy-Villacoublay and Sochaux.
In preventive maintenance, our aims are to guarantee compliance with schedules, maintenance task lists, regulations and metrological quality.
In remedial maintenance, our task is to reach the objectives of availability of test facilities by using operational maintenance facilitation methods and by applying methodological means to optimise stoppage times and recurrence of breakdowns.
The setting up of maintenance indicators allows us in particular to work on the reliability of equipment, the management of spare parts and solutions regarding the obsolescence of equipment functions.
We integrate maintenance from the setting up of new projects or during the renovation of trial benches as being guarantees for taking correct account of needs during the design and carrying out of test facilities.
Throughout the year, we ensure that commitments to their external service providers’ maintenance contracts are complied with, ensuring that they are in keeping with their objectives of maintainability, the optimisation of their spare parts pool and that of any scheduled maintenance.
The Group Stellantis therefore generates a large income thanks to the reliability of its test facilities and control of investment costs in relation to everyday management.
Renault Group
France
With the aim of improving its performance, in 2021 the Renault Group entrusted P2M with the steering and co-ordinating of the operational maintenance of its test facilities.
These facilities are spread over four technical centres in France: Aubevoye, Lardy, Le Mans and the Technocentre in Guyancourt.
The management perimetre represents around 1,200 test facilities and 15,000 references of metrological equipment which requires the checking of around 600 captors and measurement chains.
With the help of our client, we have reworked the steering processes and the co-ordinating of the corrective and preventive maintenance, then defined together their objectives and performance indicators in order to improve co-ordination between the various maintenance technicians and those using the test facilities.
Supported by our “methods” cell, our operational follow-up team covers four sections. The first concerns the realisation or improvement of the Group’s processes and standards.
Then comes the reliability study which allows breakdowns to be eliminated at the root or to minimise their impact, then the study of obsolescence and the maintainability of the test facilities.
Finally, we have put in place solutions for the integration of maintenance at design in order to take into account maintenance constraints over the whole lifetime of the test facilities.
Our expertise has allowed the brand to benefit immediately from large savings in the first two years.
We have therefore accelerated the processing of HSE nonconformity which has a direct impact on he Renault Group’s accident rate and administered a precise, rigorous CMMS giving a clear view of the whole maintenance activity.
We have obtained fast feedback on the monitoring objectives of metrological nonconformity and a satisfaction rate close to 100% in the processing of customer requests for captors or measurement chains.
We have eradicated the root causes, allowing the improvement of operational maintenance results or not to downgrade them, in spite of a large increase in the test load.
And finally, we have supported the Renault Group in the implementation of new or refurbished facilities responding to maintenance performances expected at the end of guarantee.
Voies Navigables de France (VNF)
Chalons sur Saône
A national operator designed to promote logistics by river, play a part in land development and ensure overall water management, the maintenance team in the sector of Chalon-sur-Saône needed to create maintenance schedules and associated lines for their locks and dams.
The P2M solution consisted of the carrying out of a study of their installations in the field, in close collaboration with the maintenance teams. This allowed us to understand all their activities and to determine what the criticality of their installations could be. We then developed maintenance plans and ranges taking into account the technicality of their trade.
VNF has now adopted our maintenance plans in the daily management of their installations.
GEODIS
France
A world leader in transport and logistics, in the factory setting GEODIS assembles components for the manufacturing of vehicles by the Stellantis Group. As maintenance was not at the heart of its principal activities, the company had to confront a need for support in setting-up a maintenance strategy.
After carrying out a full audit of their installations, a study of the past history of breakdowns and the gathering of feedback on the experience of production operators, our P2M teams were able to define which solutions to put in place regarding preventive and remedial maintenance.
This allowed us to create maintenance schedules for all the production posts, taking into account their productivity criteria. The main objective was not to have a production stoppage which could lead to penalties.
We optimised internal management by equipping the company with Computer-assisted Maintenance Management (CMMS) system. The full identification of their perimetre allowed us to configure the software and then to train colleagues to use it.
As the maintenance was managed by an external service provider, we supported GEODIS in choosing a qualified external management partner, in preparing their specifications and the operational setting up and steering of the teams.
The definition of indicators to be followed allowed us to support our client regarding the overall monitoring of its activities by co-ordinating the monthly results.
The arrangement of storage zones for spare parts also allowed it to increase reactivity and better organise its stock and related costs.
Store audits were carried out to ensure correct stock keeping by the service provider, as well as reliability studies of the means of production in order to reach the objectives we had fixed together.
The company now benefits from total control and a clear view of its maintenance, thanks too to the enhanced reliability of its installations.
