Long-term collaboration to optimize maintenance costs and process availability with outsourcing agreements for existing pulp mills

In the case of existing maintenance operations, an outsourcing process starts with a maintenance audit that covers both financial and operational aspects of the current maintenance operations. This study reveals the realistic development potential of the mill in terms of maintenance costs and process availability.

The typical scope of an outsourcing agreement covers:

  • Daily maintenance and shutdowns
  • Maintenance development
  • Maintenance materials management
  • Maintenance supplier network management

Establishment of maintenance for new pulp mills

For new mills, the service scope includes setting up the organization and maintenance processes. This is always an extensive project and related planning should start already at the pre-engineering stage. The following issues need to be addressed before start-up:

  • Collection of required technical data and documentation
  • Creation of preventive and predictive maintenance plans
  • Implementation of a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS)
  • Recruitment and training of maintenance personnel
  • Set up of maintenance supplier network
  • Set up of maintenance facilities, such as workshops and storage
  • Strategy for roll maintenance equipment, such as a roll grinder
  • Purchase of maintenance tools and equipment
  • Spare parts selection and procurement
