AVR Duiven | Professional Services | 459 | $383M | Netherlands | IFS | IFS Ultimo EAM | Enterprise Asset Management | 2020 |
In 2020, AVR Duiven enhanced its IFS Ultimo EAM with consultancy support from MaxGrip to improve maintenance management at the Duiven waste to energy plant. AVR Duiven is a waste to energy facility that produces renewable energy and supplies 60,000 tons of CO2 to surrounding horticulture, and the initiative focused on optimizing the Enterprise Asset Management implementation to support uptime, availability, and budget substantiation.
The engagement concentrated on IFS Ultimo EAM configuration and preventive maintenance models, refining the PM strategy to add and improve PM plans which increased planning accuracy and execution flexibility. The IFS Ultimo EAM environment was cleaned up and standardized, with data cleansing to ensure key asset attributes such as throughput time, preferred contractors, materials, activities, and PID information are captured in the system. Work instructions and standardized processes were codified in Ultimo so execution is tracked and reported consistently.
Operational scope centered on the maintenance department and contracted service providers, aligning day to day execution with the EAM driven PM models and reporting requirements. The PM setup in IFS Ultimo EAM became the baseline for multi year budgeting, enabling the maintenance manager to substantiate costs and spread work to reduce peaks, and reporting from Ultimo supports proving compliancy to governmental guidelines.
Governance and ways of working were adjusted through role alignment and process standardization, reducing reliance on single employees or contractors and creating transparency across teams. MaxGrip provided a holistic consultant role, driving the configuration, data consistency, and process change that resulted in a more efficient maintenance team, increased transparency for compliance, and improved long term budgeting and predictability within the Enterprise Asset Management program.

Cogas Groep | Utilities | 206 | $35M | Netherlands | IFS | IFS Ultimo EAM | Enterprise Asset Management | 2012 |
In 2012 Cogas Groep implemented IFS Ultimo EAM as its Enterprise Asset Management solution, establishing a centralized platform for maintenance and asset oversight across the organization. In 2022 Cogas engaged MaxGrip to optimize Ultimo usage, broaden system adoption, and strengthen integrations with business critical systems, evolving the effort from ad hoc support into a long term advisory and technical partnership.
The implementation expanded beyond initial users in Infra and Media to include the Sustainability team, aligning IFS Ultimo EAM configuration to department specific processes such as smart meter and energy transition project workflows. MaxGrip and Cogas jointly implemented tighter process automation, configurable smart dependencies, and standardized work order and maintenance planning practices, with a roadmap to increase Ultimo Mobile utilization for field execution.
Integrations were a primary focus, MaxGrip collaborated with Cogas and external partners to enhance data exchange with customer communication platforms, geographic information systems, and third party systems required for government reporting. Technical work emphasized automated routing of incidents to field engineers, elimination of manual planner handoffs where appropriate, and push button generation of audit and compliance reports, creating more reliable system to system flows.
Governance and operational rollout were structured around co creation between MaxGrip consultants and Cogas application managers, combining periodic on site support with strategic advisory engagement. This governance model promoted a uniform way of working, transfer of routine administration to internal teams, and a pragmatic escalation path for complex configurations and integration challenges.
Outcomes reported include higher efficiency through automated workflows, reduced human error via smart dependencies and optimized configurations, improved integrations that meet external reporting requirements, faster audit and compliance reporting, and consistent use of Ultimo across technical departments. Cogas and MaxGrip plan continued collaboration to further optimize mobile execution and incremental system improvements.

Renewi | Professional Services | 6641 | $2.1B | United Kingdom | IFS | IFS Ultimo E-Learning | Learning and Development | 2024 |
In 2024 Renewi implemented IFS Ultimo E-Learning as part of a coordinated Learning and Development initiative to standardize training for technical and maintenance staff supporting its Enterprise Asset Management program. IFS Ultimo E-Learning was deployed across a multi-site footprint in the United Kingdom covering Wakefield, Barnsley Doncaster and Rotherham BDR, Cumbria and East London ELWA, with MaxGrip engaged to run project management and change management for the rollout.
During the blueprinting phase the implementation was organized into two primary workstreams, business process design and detailed functional design. Workshops with key users defined uniform maintenance processes to be adopted across all sites, while detailed functional design established configuration requirements, acceptance criteria, and a technical blueprint subject to regular design reviews to ensure viability and alignment with operational needs.
The realization and build phase focused on data collection, cleansing and migration, using standardized data collection templates aligned to the functional blueprint, with MaxGrip executing the migration into Ultimo. Configuration and functional setup followed the blueprint and were validated against a predefined test plan, key users conducted functional tests and Renewi site teams performed User Acceptance Testing, and the system build and configuration were documented for ongoing maintenance. Training combined the IFS Ultimo E-Learning platform with on site hands on sessions delivered by certified MaxGrip consultants who remained available for follow up.
Go-live and post implementation included formal launch, a hyper care period with on site MaxGrip support providing coaching, Q&A and walk in help, and operational monitoring to stabilize use. The program has completed implementation at two of five sites and retained a six day implementation cadence per site, delivering quick time to value, a strong emphasis on data governance through cleansing and migration, introduction of the mobile Ultimo Go app to boost user engagement, and rapid user adoption that strengthened Renewi UKs data management and operational capability for future scalability.
