Power Generation & Distribution 

Increase the Safety and Reliability of your Power Generation Assets 

Your electricity assets are a huge investment and they also pose a significant risk to community safety if not well maintained, so having an effective maintenance strategy makes good business sense.  When we recently conducted a review of the low voltage asset maintenance processes with one of Victoria’s power distributors, we were able to identify a host of improvement opportunities. 

What we can do for you 

  • We can deploy a Lean-Six Sigma expert to review your processes, identify improvement opportunity, plan improvement projects and provide mentoring support as changes are implemented 

  • Establish 5S and Visual Management Systems 

  • Improve spare parts inventory management 

  • Improve plant reliability through total productive maintenance techniques 

Some of our projects include: 

  • 5S Training for maintenance staff at GE Renewable Energy sites 

  • Review of maintenance processes for distribution assets for Jemena 

Water / Waste Water 

Your water management assets represent a large infrastructure investment and inherently include some risk to community safety if not well maintained, so having an effective maintenance strategy makes good business sense.   

What we can do for you: 

  • We can deploy a Lean-Six Sigma expert to review your processes, identify improvement opportunity, plan improvement projects and provide mentoring support as changes are implemented 

  • Establish 5S and Visual Management Systems 

  • Improve plant reliability through total productive maintenance techniques 

Our work includes training staff at TasWater in the principles and application of 5S 

Recycling 

Recycling plants incorporate significant electrical and mechanical assets and are working in an environment of increasing output quality requirements, so having effective quality and maintenance strategies is essential. 

What we can do for you: 

  • We can review your existing processes, identify improvement opportunity, plan improvement projects and provide mentoring support as changes are implemented 

  • Establish 5S and Visual Management Systems in your yards and sheds 

  • Improve Yard layout and workflow
