Introduction

Outsourcing Maintenance or In-house Maintenance? Who will win?

  • Is contract maintenance the best value as compared to in house maintenance?
  • Are your practices supporting maintenance contractors with a total team effort?
  • Are you truly measuring performance and getting maximum productivity from contractors?

This interactive Master Class is to help both Maintenance Contractors and those who manage Contract Maintenance. Both sides will benefit. Pete Peters, your facilitator has seen the good, bad and really ugly side of Contract Maintenance.

“You can not assume contractors bring best practices as part of the deal.”

This Master Class was developed as result of consulting projects where contractors were not customer-centered and the organizational managers of contractors were not getting maximum value. As more and more maintenance leaders become victims of outsourcing there is a desperate need for this important topic. This Master Class is about building a strong team with contractors while holding them more accountable for cost, productivity and customer-service.

Benefits of Attending

This Master Class will help you be the true leader of a Contracted work force or to be a better manager of contractors. Attending this event will also help you make a difference in the total operations success of your organization. Top Leaders must clearly understand the consequences of gambling with Contractor Maintenance costs.
