ShireSystem

Ibstock Brick, the UK’s leading brickmaker and supplier of brick products, is transitioning from a reactive to a planned preventative maintenance model by managing its assets through ShireSystem CMMS software.

ShireSystem’s key achievements:

  • Increased OEE by 10% in five months
  • Increased asset availability by 13% in five months
  • Standardised processes and captured the knowledge of experienced engineers
  • Centralised asset data so Ibstock can implement best practices at group level
  • Improved the management of health and safety documentation
  • Created intuitive processes for new recruits
