Expert guidance, real results

We’re here to partner with you throughout the entire lifecycle of your equipment to help you see real improvements in safety, productivity, sustainability and lifecycle costs. Deep industry knowledge and process understanding combined with data analysis from the hundreds of thousands of assets of all makes and models that we service each year helps us provide insights to guide maintenance decisions and optimize your operations.

Our comprehensive technical training and certification programs for inspectors and technicians are supported by a global network of experts. And with the largest service network in the industry, you benefit from local experts with access to a wealth of knowledge from around the globe.

Connecting with customers on a personal basis

Our consultative approach can help guide your decision making. We don’t just drop off a report on the way out. We take time to meet with you one-on-one and share our findings, provide recommendations based on our industry-leading expertise and discuss how each action impacts your operations and the entire health of your business.

Inspection and preventive maintenance services include several key consultations including:

Once a year or as needed, we’ll conduct a Business Review at our customer’s management level. This is an in-depth review of our service relationship—looking at progress, feedback and documented value. We’ll discuss recommendations and plan jointly. The Business Review will be performed using data on yourKONECRANES.com.

Assessing risks and providing recommendations

Our proprietary Risk and Recommendation Method is the basis of our inspection and preventive maintenance processes. No matter what service is being performed, Konecranes Risk and Recommendation Method drives our evaluations and consultative processes, giving you a safety and production advantage. 

  1. A component is inspected in order to ascertain its condition 
  2. The component is either in acceptable condition or it needs attention  
  3. Exceptions (failures, deficiencies, violations) are documented
  4. Each exception is assigned one of three risk types (safety risk, production risk, undetermined condition)
  5. In addition to exceptions, improvement opportunities are identified
  6. Recommended actions are provided for each exception and improvement opportunity

Risks and recommendations are highlighted in your Service Report and noted on the yourKONECRANES customer portal to help you prioritize maintenance actions and take advantage of improvement opportunities.

Safety Risk

Indicates an unsafe condition. Failure to remedy such condition before continued operation of the identified asset may result in personal injury, including death, or property damage. 

Production Risk

Undetermined Condition
