YOUR SERVICE STRATEGY'S TIP OF THE SPEAR



Nothing helps ensure your steam plant’s performance and reliability as much as the parts that go into it.

hero-parts-intro.jpg

The value of speed

Operating time is your money.

That’s why our #1 parts focus is on SPEED!

Speed in designing, manufacturing and delivering the components you need… when you need them.

value-of-speed2.jpg
hero-parts-intro.jpg

Navigating today’s environment

navigating-todays-environment.jpg

Today’s power demand surge is stretching service providers—and supply chains—in ways not seen in 50 years.

Our service team can collaborate with you to:

  • Navigate this reality

  • Plan your parts roadmap

  • Deliver the speed and quality you expect from us

hero-parts-intro.jpg

Slashing cycle time

Progress

We’ve reduced the average parts order-to-delivery cycle by 30%, including a 40% reduction in quoting time (average reduction across parts portfolio from 2024 to 2026; not applicable to all components).

Prioritization

With a priority on longer-lead time components such as last stage blades.

Collaboration

Growing through new supplier partners that share our commitment to deliver the parts you need, when you need them.

THE NEXT EVOLUTION OF CYCLE REDUCTION

Efficiency

Lean process improvements to streamline ‘step-to-step’ handoffs

Integration

Tighter process alignment across our internal teams and supply chain partners

Pre-assembly

Ready-to-drop-in solutions like valve assemblies

End-to-end

For faster quote to delivery/installation

hero-parts-intro.jpg

Designed to last

designed-to-last.jpg

The only thing better than a speedy order delivery is having fewer orders to place and fewer components to repair.

That’s why our design techniques center around:

  • Performance staying power

  • Operating flexibility

  • Life cycle longevity

Engineering durability

Harmonization

Advancing designs that apply across our OEM and legacy brand parts.

Harnessing data

Bringing millions of operating ​hours of data to the component-specific level.

Looking ahead

Reducing obsolescence issues with suppliers while staying current on material availability.

generator rotor

Up to 2 years

of downtime avoided

SUMMARY

A western U.S. steam plant operator that delivers baseload power to its community of about one million people experienced a forced outage due to a 16-inch crack on a generator rotor field. The 600MW site called on GE Vernova’s Steam Power team to identify an alternative solution to having a new forging or generator rotor manufactured when one of its units tripped offline unexpectedly.
