Cruise company Carnival Corporation has signed a new global service contract with Evac Group for preventive annual maintenance and lifecycle services covering Evac systems installed across the company’s eight cruise subsidiaries.
The agreement follows a proactive, fleet-level approach extending the lifetime of Evac systems and improving reliability, efficiency and cost predictability. By planning maintenance in advance, harmonising ways of working across cruise lines and including onboard crew training during annual visits, the service agreement aims to reduce the risk of unplanned outages and support Carnival Corporation’s decarbonisation efforts.
Vera Lannek, VP, Sourcing and Machinery Lifecycle Management, Carnival Corporation, said: “This agreement marks an important step in our strategy to safeguard the performance of our environmental systems while driving efficient operations. By partnering with Evac as the original equipment supplier, we can leverage technology for a more proactive fleet-level approach that supports our operational and decarbonisation objectives efficiently and also helps ensure a smoother, more reliable onboard experience for our guests by reducing the chance of system-related disruptions.”
With this proactive approach, Evac believes it demonstrates a commitment to advancing a future with no waste by helping cruise operators improve the performance, efficiency and sustainability of their onboard environmental systems through advanced maintenance concepts and services.
