SITA rolls out Mainsaver CMMS to support best practice maintenance

Spidex Software has announced that SITA UK, the recycling and resource management specialists, will be extending use of Mainsaver CMMS across two additional energy-from-waste (EfW) power plants during the first half of 2012.

Mainsaver has been used successfully by the engineering team at SITA’s Tees Valley site for a number of years but as UK demand for Energy-from-Waste increases, the company is looking to roll out standardised maintenance procedures across its existing and forthcoming new-build facilities.

SITA’s Energy-From-Waste plants convert ordinary household and business waste into electricity as part of a multi-site energy recovery operation that collectively produces more than one million megawatt-hours every year.

“Energy-from-Waste is the future” says SITA’s EfW Regional Manager Cliff Matthews, “and we need to ensure that our ongoing investment in new facilities is fully supported by robust maintenance procedures.”

“SITA has already won waste industry awards for operations and maintenance excellence, but we can still improve knowledge-sharing within the business. Our aim is to define, refine and standardise maintenance best practice and thereby compare performance between sites to improve output.”

“In order to do this we need consistent, easy-to-analyse management information, which is what Mainsaver provides. We will be making good use of all the technology advantages that Mainsaver offers, including touchscreen operation, mobile working and barcode scanning.”

The existing facilities included in the initial Mainsaver rollout will be the EfW plants on the Isle of Man and at Kirklees, Yorkshire.  SITA UK’s new-build programme is already under way, and Mainsaver is included in the original build & commission specification at sites in Cornwall and Suffolk. Each new site will have Mainsaver already installed when its first day of operation arrives.
