In 2001, Meniscus and
Paques BV entered into a partnering contract to enable Process Engineers at Paques to
remotely monitor the treatment performance of an installation
anywhere in the world using IPMS. This ensures timely adjustment of
the installation, correct maintenance and operators can be advised
on the optimal method to manage the installation. The most important
advantages of this service are reduced short and long- term
operational costs, the minimisation of possible operational risks,
an extended operational life of the installation and improved
customer service by remaining in regular contact with the customer
post installation.
