JCCBI manages five road links in the southern part of the metropolitan region: the Jacques-Cartier Bridge (inaugurated in 1930), the Estacade (1965), the Nuns’ Island bypass bridge, the federal sections of the Bonaventure Expressway (1967) and the Honor\u00e9-Mercier Bridge (1934), as well as the Melocheville Tunnel (1957) near Beauharnois. These infrastructures include three major structures crossing the St. Lawrence River between Montreal and the South Shore. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These essential links require responsiveness and a long-term vision, in collaboration with other stakeholders.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Aware of its role, the company is actively engaged in proactive asset management, integrating technologies such as computerized sensors on its key structures, and modeling to have digital twins of the bridges.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Since<\/span> 2016, <\/span>Norda<\/span> Stelo<\/span> has been <\/span>accompanying<\/span> JCCBI on <\/span>its<\/span> asset management <\/span>journey<\/span>, <\/span>starting<\/span> with<\/span> a <\/span>maturity<\/span> analysis<\/span> based<\/span> on IAM (Institute of Asset Management) <\/span>criteria<\/span>. Even for an <\/span>organization<\/span> already<\/span> invested<\/span> in asset management, <\/span>such<\/span> a <\/span>maturity<\/span> analysis<\/span> remains<\/span> crucial, and <\/span>covers<\/span> some<\/span> forty<\/span> aspects <\/span>defined<\/span> by the IAM. It <\/span>helps<\/span> to balance <\/span>interdependent<\/span> aspects, <\/span>maximize<\/span> strengths<\/span> and <\/span>target<\/span> improvements<\/span>.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This analysis revealed crucial improvements for JCCBI, essential for improving decision-making and effective asset management. Responding positively to these issues will enable the Corporation to enhance the safety and reliability of its infrastructure. As part of this mandate, a new maturity analysis will be carried out to identify the next areas for improvement.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

Following the initial maturity analysis conducted by Norda Stelo, several key projects were identified to improve JCCBI’s physical asset management practices. These projects were prioritized to ensure continuous improvement and maximize short-term gains. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The creation of an asset management policy became a priority. JCCBI commissioned Norda Stelo to draft this essential document, now guiding the asset management strategy. Four workshops led by our experts enabled the Asset Management Committee to discuss critical decisions, and the results were incorporated into the policy. A customized training program ensured that Committee members had a common understanding of orientations and implementation. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We also raised awareness among managers and employees of the importance of information management, integrated with asset management. This involved defining a maturity scale for assessing data quality and preparing training courses on information management principles.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, Norda Stelo helped JCCBI develop an information management strategy to effectively structure data for the five infrastructures under its responsibility. This strategy aims to align information management with overall asset management objectives. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Norda Stelo is continuing its support by focusing on the development of organizational practices. This includes new customized training and coaching workshops so that JCCBI can establish asset management strategies and plans to ensure their sustainability.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n

Our mandate included maturity analysis, asset management policy development and information management to sustainably transform PJCCI’s practices. We organized workshops and provided customized training for managers, which improved internal communication and ensured a uniform understanding of results.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At the same time, we prepared presentation tools tailored to the JCCBI team, making it easier to interpret analyses and communicate key messages. This approach enabled an optimized allocation of resources, by documenting needs with evidence-based data, and translating this information to support findings and identify courses of action. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We also structured JCCBI’s work to develop an information management plan. Assessment of this plan via a maturity matrix helped identify strengths and areas for improvement, while guiding the drafting of a solid information management strategy. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As part of the ongoing support, collaborative solutions and digital media are being deployed, to ensure effective communication and active participation throughout the process.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By guiding JCCBI towards industry best practice, this project has not only improved asset management, but also moved the major infrastructure sector forward. The benefits achieved, such as more structured asset management and an approach aligned with strategic objectives, support the organization’s sustainable transformation efforts.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n
