A Logical Expansion of the Industrial Giant: Offering Total O&M Solutions

BHEL has demonstrated, time and again, its expertise in timely manufacture, supply and commissioning of power plants on EPC basis, that includes O&M (till handing over) and providing life-long after-sales support services. In addition, limited O&M services were provided for specific contracts. Hence, in its drive to explore new business opportunities, it becomes only logical for BHEL to expand its core competencies and provide Total O&M Services for Power Plants, to deliver the maximum return to Owners of the power plants.

Being an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), the O&M services from BHEL would offer the following advantages to the power plant Owners:

	Direct access to BHEL’s expert knowledge.
	Ability of BHEL to mobilize experts and train local engineers quickly, leading to reliable operation without delay.
	Fast communication between the Operator and the OEM.
	Assured and timely availability of spares for long periods.
	Equipment Operation and Maintenance assured to be in line with the OEM's recommendations.

These advantages would translate into higher availability and increased service life of the power plant equipment, at reduced cost for Owners of the power plants.
