Sharing Responsibility
Outsourcing is a cost-effective way to allow you to focus more on business development
A sensible division of responsibility
In order to work effectively with outsourcing, it is important to clearly define expectations and responsibilities upfront. At FLSmidth, we have no ambitions to become the plant owners. As such, we take no financial stake or holdings in the plants we operate. Our contribution and scope of responsibility is contained to the efficient running and professional upkeep of a facility. By limiting our role to operational and maintenance support, we also ensure there is no conflict of interest between our customers and ourselves. We encourage plant owners to retain control of fundamental supply issues relating to, for example, power, water, fuel and raw materials. In addition, all capital investments in machinery and property are the responsibility of the plant owner. However, we help define specifications and make recommendations where and when necessary.
FLSmidth provides
- Total optimisation of plant processes and performance
- Preventative maintenance programme
- Best-practice policies, procedures and know-how
- Computerised Maintenance Management System
- Working procedures – a blueprint of operation and maintenance
The table above gives an example of the possible breakdown of duties and responsibilities to obtain the best results.
