ISS In service support
Say stop to production shutdowns
Today, with manufacturers' rapid renewal of their equipment lines, electronic systems become obsolete faster than ever. In case of a breakdown, companies can't always find the necessary spare parts. They then have to cope with forced production shutdowns that can cause major cost overruns or, worse, a lost contract.
Together, we can implement a veritable continuity strategy
To provide in service support for your facilities,
COFIEM offers you 3 types of complementary continuity strategies :
Our skills, know-how and view of European markets let us help you find viable and measured solutions that are perfectly suited to your specific needs.
The key steps to implement your strategy
1- List
Identify all of the electronic equipment comprising your production lines, includind brands, part numbers and quantities
2 - Identify
Identify the components considered as essential, hazardous or strategic on your machines(by yourself or with COFIEM's assistance).
3 - Inquire
Find out the availability of this equipment on the European or world market and study the criticality of these components when they become obsolete
4 - Decide
Meet together and decide to act by implementing continuity strategies
Did you know ?
7 out of 10 breakdowns on a production line are caused by the failure of one of its electronic components that has become obsolete
Obscolescence management
Increase the useful life of your production facilities
At each technological change, you have to reprogram your equipment, train your teams and constitute a new strategic stock. You have to cope with numerous production shutdowns and therefore significant financial losses. Consequently, whenever possible, it is better to perpetuate your production facilities.
How does obsolescence management work?
Our experts study your needs, map your facility, identify the sensitive and vital components and plan a strategic source of supply. Relatively easy and fast to implement, this approach helps you more accurately identify your medium and long-term needs. It represents a concrete and sustainable alternative to the constraints of never-ending technological and product line changes.
Outsourced Stock
Your personalised storage solution
Until now, to cope with a hardware failure, you had three solutions: constitute a strategic stock, live on existing stocks or work just-in-time without stock. Today, COFIEM offers you an alternative solution: outsourced and shared storage.
With outsourced and share storage, you rent an annual right of access to refurbished equipment maintained in operating condition. This way, when a failure occurs, you benefit immediately from equipment in the form of a standard exchange and your production can resume quickly. In the medium-term, you minimise the operating and storage costs.
The advantages of outsourced and shared storage
- Strategic products are always available
- Refurbished and warranted equipment
- Storage costs minimised in the medium-term
Preventive and ISS actions
Strengthen the reliability of your stored equipment
If it is impossible to completely avoid the occurrence of breakdowns, it is possible to get prepared for them. COFIEM helps you create a stock of spare parts, available immediately and operational..
Everything to anticipate breakdowns
Based on a schedule defined with you, COFIEM performs on the stored equipment the different maintenance actions necessary to provide their In Service Support. Specifically, they are tested regularly and refurbished by changing the ageing components and then repackaged in packaging suited to storage and warranted 12 months from their shipment.
