Maintenance Director Master Plan (MDM)

Shaking hands

The Maintenance Director Master Plan provides port operators with the means to plan the necessary maintenance and/or inspection to meet their operational requirements (taking account of their evolution). In particular, it enables the anticipation and handling of a possible increase in the port’s receiving capacity (tonnage, availability, cargo types…), while simultaneously considering the ageing of structural assets (quays, pontoons, transport network, locks, dykes…).

With the support of Oxand, we created and formalised our maintenance strategy, allowing the healthy management of our infrastructure. It enables us to objectively establish our priorities and to improve our efficiency.

Working with numerous ports over the world for the definition and practical application of their Maintenance Director Master Plan has allowed Oxand to capitalise on an international experience feedback in the form of an innovative numerical tool: SIMEO™ PORT.
