Utilities

A Utility generally maintains the infrastructure for a public service, such as water treatment plants, waste management facilities, and gas or electricity plants. We will help you maintain these types of utilities through the use of Preventative Maintenance plans. These plans will increase your Utility uptime using proven breakdown prevention practices.

Using MEX you can quickly and easily organise your maintenance plans whilst;

• Preventing equipment breakdowns and scheduling maintenance tasks
• Complying with Occupational Health and Safety standards
• Control liability requirements

MEX will work alongside your utility’s business processes, providing performance metrics and reports to support, assist and improve your bottom line.

Facilities

"Facilities" can be defined as buildings, properties and major infrastructure. They are also referred to ,within the Facility Management industry, as the "built environment".

The primary function of Facility Management (FM) is to manage and maintain the efficient operation of this "built environment".

The Facilities Industry is also responsible for:

• Ensuring that services are delivered in a way that contributes to the productivity and profitability of those people who utilise a facility.
• Reducing the impact Facilities can have on the environment.
• Minimising operational life cycle costs of facilities, repairs and maintenance, security and cleaning as well as more highly technical services required for the efficient operation of a facility.

MEX can effectively manage your facility operations whilst;

• Identifying all your facilities assets
• Allowing for project planning and scheduling

"We would not know what to do if we didn't have MEX,"

"Whenever the computer systems go down we realise how dependant we are on MEX to keep us functioning on a daily basis," says Allan Pollock, Facilities Manager of the Sydney Olympic Park Sports Centre.

Sydney Olympic Park Sports Centre has been using MEX since 2001. Since then they have progressed their maintenance department forward to an almost paperless operation that runs very efficiently. They currently use MEX, MEX Mobile and MEX Ops which has helped to produce an effective maintenance operation.

"Since Casella Wines implemented MEX in April 2007 we have enjoyed continuous improvement in our bottling lines uptime, and also in the general control of our maintenance procedures," said Harvey Higgins - Maintenance Systems Engineer

In light of this, in pre-vintage 2008/09, Casella Wines set up a MEX preventative maintenance program, encompassing all areas of the process and crush.

"This preventative maintenance program of lubrication schedules and inspections, together with our ongoing continuous improvement philosophy gave us our best result of machine reliability during vintage to date," continued Harvey.

"Casella Wines has received fantastic loyal support from MEX and is sure this will continue with the integration of MEX into the overall plant maintenance," said Matt Boudreau - Engineering Manager
