MAG Maintenance Technologies has been awarded a purchasing agreement by Lockheed Martin that covers global service and support of its manufacturing equipment. This new agreement en-ables lean efficiencies and economies and provides a schedule of discounts to Lockheed Martin as the volume of work increases. “The program, effective earlier this year, is global in two respects”, said Gary Finney, Director of Sales North America for MAG Main-tenance Technologies.
First, it covers service and support of all manufacturing equipment at major Lockheed Martin locations around the world. Second, the agreement is global in scope of products and services offered. It includes interactive diagnostic help, preventive maintenance, field service, training, replacement and spare parts, productivity im-provements, machine rebuilding and even machine and system relocation and setup. The agreement assures Lockheed Martin of world-class maintenance expertise and coverage, while offering economies of scale.
MAG Maintenance Technologies has service centers in the North America, South America, Europe and Asia, with over 250 service engineers strategically located worldwide to service Lockheed Martin’s major facilities.
The agreement covers the full range of machine tools produced by MAG’s family of companies, including over 50 different ma-chine tool legacy brands. It also covers Lockheed Martin’s large installed base of specialised MAG Cincinnati aerospace machin-ing and composites fabrication equipment. The agreement is not limited to MAG equipment. MAG Maintenance Technologies has demonstrated its ability to take on complete project responsibility, involving machine tool brands outside the MAG family.
Integration of the program into Lockheed Martin’s global sourcing system allows easy access to everything from discounted parts and consumables such as tooling to comprehensive repair and relocation services. “This is a key breakthrough. Any Lockheed Martin facility can now order service simply by checking off a cou-ple boxes on a one-page form. This can save substantial time and costs at the operating level over lengthy supplier evaluation and bid processes,” said Finney.
“Manufacturers of all sizes, not just global giants like Lockheed Martin, are finding that they cannot afford – and in many cases cannot find – the maintenance staffing and expertise needed to achieve world-class productivity and competitiveness. Thanks to its unique combination of high expertise in specialised areas and the backup of a global enterprise, MAG Maintenance Technolo-gies can provide tailored solutions for a great variety of enter-prises,” concludes Finney.
