In a recent interview with CHEManager, Michiel van den Boomen, Vice President at EFESO Management Consultants; shared insights on how EFESO helps chemical companies redefine their maintenance strategies to balance cost reduction and value creation.
Michiel highlighted that while reducing maintenance costs is essential, it’s equally important to maintain a value-creation perspective. Companies need to redefine what 'value' means for their business—whether that’s improving asset availability, reducing risk, or supporting sustainability goals.
He further explained EFESO’s approach, which involves aligning stakeholders around a clear vision for the future, combining short-term cost optimization with long-term capability development. EFESO focuses on system and process optimization, leveraging new technologies, and supporting leaders and the workforce in adopting these changes. This holistic approach integrates all aspects of asset care effectively.
