The future of asset maintenance at Siemens Mobility in Graz

Logo Siemens Mobility Austria GmbH
The plant and facilities of Siemens Mobility GmbH in Graz comprise 9,500 assets. Among them are 1,000 small machines and 90 key plants. Approximately 2,000 maintenance jobs are performed on the assets per month. The technical system is highly complex and requires power-ful maintenance software due to the high availability requirements. Since 2016, BOOM MAINTENANCE MANAGER (BMM) has been in use — an IT system that comprehensively supports the planning, organization, execution and control of maintenance activities.

Risk-based maintenance as a crucial competitive advantage

Siemens Mobility GmbH produces technically complex, highly safety-critical products at the World Competence Center for chassis in Graz. Due to the high demands on reliability, availability, maintainability and safety of all components in the system, the identification, evaluation and elimination of risks are among the most important tasks. The CRITICALITY ASSET PRIORITY module is used to determine the criticality of the systems from the perspective of production, work preparation and maintenance. The criticality index helps to reduce gut feeling decisions and to support the decisions made with solid facts. In addition, it promotes transparency by providing comprehensible and well-documented information on the basis of the evaluation for the departments.
