Registration for this event is closed.

The thirteenth edition of this year’s WCM Summer School will take place from Monday 29 July to Friday 2 August and will once again be organised at the Generaal-Majoor Kootkazerne in Stroe.

Over a week, participants will be presented with the very latest maintenance knowledge by professors from various Dutch universities and will think in groups about a real practical case, this year brought in by Royal Schiphol Group.

On Friday, the various solutions will be presented and an online vote (app via smartphone) will determine which team has the best solution.

We cordially invite you to attend this final presentation – English spoken – in Stroe, each year full of fresh insights. The maximum number of people is limited so register quickly.

Case

Royal Schiphol Group will provide a real business case on asset management at a major airport. Royal Schiphol Group has a considerable project portfolio with both expansion projects and major renovation projects. The main question and challenge for the participants during the summer school is to think about how Royal Schiphol Group can optimise its asset management processes for its renovation projects. These improvements should help to accelerate the maintenance and modernisation of Schiphol while keeping the airport in operation. The results of the WCM Summer School will help Royal Schiphol Group to create maximum value for its stakeholders.
