Lifetime Support: Long-term service and maintenance agreements for I&C systems
Product support for maximum profitability throughout the entire life cycle
The ability to plan reliably for all power plant assets is vital in the face of ever tougher competition. The expected useful life of major mechanical items is generally greater than that of I&C systems, which are subject to shorter innovation cycles. Strategic lifetime support for I&C technology is thus essential if optimal use is to be made of the systems in place over the long term.
A system manufacturer itself, Siemens offers tailored long-term service and system maintenance contracts providing lifetime support for your I&C systems throughout the life of your plant so that you can permanently maximize your profitability. All long-term agreements are always individually matched to the relevant market situation and the specific remaining life of your plant.
