OPCSA technical director Carlos Rodriguez said: “We made the decision to consolidate our maintenance activities under one service provider in order to enhance safety, performance and productivity as well as cost-efficiency.
“Kalmar’s track record in comprehensive maintenance provision for leading terminals speaks for itself, and it was a natural step for us to continue our relationship since we already rely on Kalmar equipment across virtually every area of our operations.”
The contract will be effective from the beginning of the first quarter of next year.
Complete Care is designed to combine Kalmar’s entire maintenance and material-management operations with the customer’s processes.
