Quality

Mantena provides maintenance services that meet or exceed our relevant stakeholders’ requirements and expectations.

We do this by systematically improving our business systems and adapting our processes. Our ambition is to create long-term customer relationships.
This means that we must have continuous dialogue with customers, enabling us to adapt the content and scope of our services in line with their needs. We must also ensure that employees have access to the most effective tools and methods.

Mantena’s focus:

– Insight into deliveries at all levels 
– Improved data quality 
– Active use of target figures and CPI 
– Skills development 
– Continuous improvement of procedures and processes 
– Increased awareness

We have established and measurable quality goals that are regularly monitored and revised. The business system meets the requirements of ISO 9001: 2015.

Environment

More and more stringent environmental requirements are being set by the market and trains are a climate-friendly transport method – both for goods and passengers. 
 
As a major maintenance supplier in the Nordic region, Mantena has the goal of zero damage to the external environment.
For Mantena, environmental awareness and energy saving at all levels of the organization is an important goal. Several measures have been implemented – including saving energy, reducing the use of chemicals and, not least, environmental education among our employees.
 
There are still rail sections that are not electrified where diesel engines are used. Mantena has a high level of expertise and some of the best equipment for fine tuning diesel engines – both in terms of consumption and emissions.


Since the environment is central to a modern railway business, we in Mantena are always updated in this area.
 Through our own environmental report and participation in various environmental projects, we always have full overview and continuous focus on this work.

Mantena is certified in accordance with NS-EN ISO 14001:2015. Annual assessments of the company’s environmental measures are carried out and significant environmental aspects are carried out, as a basis for the company’s environmental work.
