Mainnovation
About us
Mainnovation is a leading consulting firm specialised in Maintenance & Asset Management.
Founded in 2000, we help asset-intensive companies transform their technical departments into value-creating business functions. Through our innovative VDMxl methodology (Value Driven Maintenance & Asset Management), maintenance evolves from a traditional cost center into a strategic contributor to business success.
With a team of over 50 expert consultants and offices in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, the UK and the USA, we carry out projects around the world. Our approach combines more than 25 years of international experience with sector-specific best practices, proven tools and cutting-edge insights.
Our mission is clear: to help asset-intensive companies remain competitive despite an aging asset base. VDMXL empowers organisations to make well-founded, value-driven decisions—resulting in increased uptime, reduced costs, improved safety and extended asset lifetimes. More than 1,000 companies have already implemented VDMxl—with tangible and lasting results.
Become part of the movement that sees maintenance and asset management not as a cost, but as a source of value creation.
Products & services
SAPA
Due to assets aging, the need for replacements is increasing. However, an unstable economy means there is less CAPEX budget available. This forces us to make choices. Aging assets, what is your CAPEX strategy? To read more, follow the link.
VDMxl Control Panel
Companies that focus on economic added value are obliged to continuously monitor their performance. Within VDMxl, this is done with the help of the VDMxl Control Panel; a fully automated KPI dashboard for Maintenance & Asset Management organizations. The VDMxl Control Panel was developed with the use of Modern Business Intelligence software and is integrated into the company’s EAM system.
AMprover Software
AMprover is user-friendly software that helps to determine the right equilibrium for any asset or installation. It is an all-in-one Asset Performance Management solution for all your reliability analyses. AMprover imports the object structure from your EAM and helps to determine the most critical elements and the most important failure mechanisms. You then weigh the risks and you can calculate the various alternatives with AMprover. This gives insight in which quantity and which form of preventive and predictive maintenance creates the most value. Finally, AMprover helps you to export the improved maintenance plan to your EAM.
myVDMxl.com Online Benchmarking Platform
MyVDXL.com is an online benchmarking platform that supports the VDMxl strategy assessment process and helps companies to identify and quantify their improvement potential. Mainnovation has a benchmark database with data from more than 1,000 companies, that relates to the twelve most important KPIs within Maintenance and Asset Management. With these KPIs, it is not only possible to measure how your own organization is doing, but also where the organization stands in relation to others. By comparing results with (anonymous) companies in the same industry, you’ll get a realistic picture of the improvement potential.
VDMxl Process Map
The VDMxl Process Map is a digital collection of best practice Maintenance & Asset Management work processes. It visualizes over 60 work processes that together cover all aspects of a Maintenance & Asset Management organisation. You can easily drill down to individual processes, steps and even detailed work instructions. The VDMxl Process Map can be modified to meet the organization’s specific needs.
