IMS FCM: Flange Connection Management
Manage critical flanges with a strict guided maintenance protocol, based on tool usage, tension & torque, and joint integrity calculations.
Flange connections are still one of the biggest sources of leaks in the industry. IMS FCM helps you manage critical flanges with a strict guided maintenance protocol, based on tool usage, tension & torque, and joint integrity calculations. Our dedicated field app software, IMS4Field, enables users to perform and document field tasks offline, which aids in digitalizing processes and improves workflow efficiency.

With IMS FCM you can…
- Register all your relevant flange data in one central location.
- Conduct transparent tension & torque, and joint integrity calculations.
- Define jobs for blind list/spade off list definitions.
- Identify bad actors and critical flanges based on proper history recording with dynamic checklists
- Carry out a clear and structured approach to the assembly and dismantling of (critical) flanges
The Benefits
Proper flange management will reduce leaks by 35%. The costs associated per leak can be anywhere from €100K to €100M.
- Use your data to create a uniform protocol.
- Use a detailed checklist for the execution of the work needed.
- Details recorded for each job are properly recorded and signed off. Following this, dashboards can then be used to highlight exceptions, bad actors, and issues.
- Smoothly bridge the work done by your Mechanical Engineers and the Equipment Integrity department.
