Mergers and acquisitions have become increasingly common across the energy sector, as companies seek to overcome the pressures which have emerged in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and growing environmental concerns. 

In a world of growing environmental concerns, the pursuit of sustainable practices is spreading across various industries and areas, including materials management. Faced with finite resources, growing amounts of waste, and increasing emissions caused by production methods, there has become an urgent need to reevaluate and redefine the way we handle materials across their lifecycle.

In today's rapidly evolving landscape, it is crucial to implement effective and efficient maintenance practices to ensure the durability and dependability of assets through a time of tightening budgets and a drive for increased output. The intricacies of maintenance often give rise to numerous questions when it comes to creating a fully optimized strategy - like which approach to take and how to measure your strategy’s effectiveness.

In order to gain a greater understanding and insight into the challenges faced by Maintenance Managers across the globe, we conducted an extensive report calling upon experts in the field of maintenance to share their knowledge and experience. The results of our report uncovered multiple challenges noted by professionals, providing the industry with valuable information on how maintenance operations can be tackled efficiently and effectively. 

Materials management can be described as the process of planning, organizing and controlling the flow of materials, from the initial purchasing of raw materials to the final point of delivery - and everything in between.

Following a maintenance strategy is a crucial component of optimizing performance and maximizing production in any business. Failing to conduct proper maintenance can lead to inefficiencies, breakdowns and unexpected downtime - all of which can cost a business significant amounts of money.

Asset integrity management (AIM) is the process of ensuring that an organisation’s physical assets and people are operating as intended and are fit for purpose. This includes both the maintenance and upkeep of any assets, along with the identification of any risks that may impact their performance.
