Challenge

A global marine ports operator required the collection and standardization of asset master data across worldwide terminals to support a global ERP implementation, a task complicated by pandemic-related travel constraints and limited asset downtime.

Results

ALLSERV successfully collected 98,291 data points from 2,966 assets across 31 terminals in 20 countries, enabling a seamless data migration and global compatibility.

The Challenge

A leading marine ports operator was going through a global ERP implementation and had a need to collect, validate and standardize asset master data across their terminals worldwide. The customer collaborated with ALLSERV on this initiative which aimed to drive global standardization and adoption of asset master data. By partnering with the customer, ALLSERV was able to establish processes and methodologies that align with international standards, enabling efficient data collection, global compatibility, and a seamless ERP data migration.

The Solution

ALLSERV's dedicated techno-functional team focused on understanding the requirement and all potential challenges.

We then customized our proprietary asset data management tools for efficient asset data collection. ALLSERV's global pool of subject matter experts used the tool to collect and validate the asset data.

A performance monitoring dashboard was also used to monitor the real-time progress of the project. ALLSERV had a team of data management experts who performed quality control of the collected data.

Our approach to asset management included the following steps:

  • Finalize Standard for Assets in Scope
  • Configure and Stage Custom Application
  • Collect and Validate Asset Data
  • Standardize and Deliver Validated Data


The Results

Though the mobilization of ALLSERV's resources was heavily constrained by the pandemic compounded by the limited availability of the asset downtime, the team successfully:

  • Completed onsite data collection at 31 terminals in 20 countries
  • Collected a total of 98,291 data points from 2,966 assets
