Air Liquide Optimizes Its Field Operations with Nomadia Field Service Management

A Global Leader Facing Complex Field Operations

Air Liquide is a key player in the industrial and medical gases sector. Present in more than 70 countries, the group supplies millions of customers and patients across industries as diverse as manufacturing, healthcare, and energy. Maintaining service quality and continuity at scale makes coordinating field teams a true operational challenge.

Thousands of interventions every day — equipment maintenance, secure gas deliveries — demand the ability to plan routes efficiently, optimize travel, ensure regulatory compliance, and maintain customer satisfaction. It is in this demanding context that Air Liquide chose Nomadia Field Service Management.

The Challenges: Streamlining Planning and Improving Productivity

In the industrial gases sector, performance depends on the absolute reliability of interventions. Operations managers juggle multiple simultaneous constraints:

• 👷 Technician availability and specific skills required for certain sensitive interventions
• 🔒 Strict compliance with safety rules and regulatory deadlines for facility maintenance
• 🗺️ Route optimization to limit mileage, reduce the carbon footprint, and control operational costs

Without the right tools, these requirements lead to wasted time, unnecessary travel, and time-consuming manual scheduling — a direct drag on performance and competitiveness.

Nomadia Field Service Management: The Deployed Solution

To address these challenges, Air Liquide integrated Nomadia Field Service Management, a SaaS solution designed to digitize, automate, and optimize field intervention management. The platform centralizes all the information needed for planning and executing missions.

The Benefits Experienced by Air Liquide

1. Route Optimization and Carbon Footprint Reduction

   Thanks to built-in optimization algorithms, planners reduce technician travel time while meeting intervention deadlines. Fewer kilometers driven means lower operational costs and a significant reduction in carbon footprint.

2. Time Savings in Planning

   Process automation frees teams from manual tasks. Managers can now focus on higher-value activities: performance analysis and service quality improvement.

3. Enhanced Traceability and Compliance

   Every intervention is tracked in real time, with immediate field data reporting. Compliance with safety standards is guaranteed, and regulatory audit reports are generated with ease.

4. Improved Customer Experience

   Better punctuality and proactive communication with customers strengthen satisfaction and trust — two direct drivers of loyalty in the industrial sector.
