Siveco has been working with us at the Recycling & Recovering division of Suez for over a decade now, starting with the construction of our first waste treatment plant in mainland China, one of the world’s largest hazardous waste-to-energy plants, which started operations in Shanghai Chemical Industry Park in 2006. Siveco helped establish the maintenance management system for the plant and has supported us ever since as we developed our China business.

bluebee® now allows GSN to systematize all its maintenance processes. Centralizing the information in a closed system, by creating a database of the equipment, and combining it with the VDMA guidelines guarantees that all maintenance operations are planned and performed timely. By granting its client an access to the system, GSN offers them an unrivalled level of transparency.

Welcome to the Summer 2017 edition of our “Maintenance in China” newsletter! As usual we wanted to take it easy during summertime, so we chose to collect some of our most popular articles. I would especially like to highlight the Reliability piece A practical bluebee®-driven PAS 55 / ISO 55000 implementation. As many of our readers already know, since May 1, 2017, ISO 55000 has become effective in China as a local standard GB/T 33172.

On July 14, Siveco China held its mid-term management meeting at the Pan Pacific Hotel in Suzhou. July being an extremely busy month, team members flew in from Hong Kong, Zhongshan and Beijing, in addition to Shanghai. The exchange session proved to be very fruitful with many improvement ideas, which will be put into practice into daily operation.

July 14th is the day French people celebrate for their Revolution. As per our tradition, the Siveco team held a party at the Shanghai office. Led by Bruno Lhopiteau, our General Manager, we sang the French national anthem and various revolutionary songs together and enjoyed cheese and champagne! In this joyful atmosphere, may the Sino-French friendship last forever!
