Efficient Maintenance for Sustainable Transport Solutions - EMATS

Vehicle maintenance and the workshop are both a part of the transport solution. This means that the maintenance solution is a subset of the transport solution. New technologies create conditions for new business solutions and vice versa. With new types of vehicles with advanced powertrains and fuel systems, the need for advanced maintenance and maintenance planning of the vehicles has increased. In EMATS we wanted to adapt the workshop solutions to one vehicle fleet consisting of electric vehicles, vehicles with alternative fuels and autonomous vehicles. An efficient transport solution requires an efficient maintenance solution where all stakeholders are integrated. In this project, we have looked at a comprehensive solution for the workshop and how the workshop processes can be integrated into the transport solution. The overall objective of the EMATS project was to develop aftermarket concepts for sustainable transport solutions with a holistic approach, and how can we ensure vehicle maintenance in the transport chain, linked to everything from the haulage's planning to the technician’s work environment.
