Rolling Stock Manufacturers
AN OVERVIEW
Driving results for Rolling Stock Manufacturers
OXplus understands that management and support are vital in the warranty period after delivery of the manufactured Rolling Stock. After final commissioning by the client, the warranty clock begins to tick. That is where OXplus supports Manufacturers to make sure you can deliver and exceed expectations on the operational years warranty, resulting in bonuses instead of penalties. We maximize availability and deliver continuous support using the latest technology with high quality systems that can be used throughout the entire contract period (until long after the warranty period).
When the maintenance is eventually turned over to the Operator, OXplus can continue the support for the Operator’s Organization. That way they can use the same system with the same support and quality, aimed at enhancing/optimizing the Asset Lifecycle. This results in a smooth transition from one party to another, based on a proven track record.
