Pragma assists clients in ensuring compliance with acts and regulations such as the National Environmental Management Act (NEMA) for environmental protection, the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHS Act) for construction-related activities, and the Legal Metrology Act for legal administration. By managing contractors and ensuring adherence to these regulations, Pragma supports clients in maintaining compliance and operational integrity.

A result of our longstanding partnership is a clear understanding of Shells procurement preferences which has secured competitive pricing, savings on refurbishments rather than replacements, and the standardisation of equipment. ##### Improved data velocity with the Work Manager application The Work Manager app has significantly increased data quality, and velocity as data is entered in real-time once work is completed. All relevant documentation, including site permits and photos, are attached to the work orders, ensuring a much faster turnaround on the full completion of work orders. ##### Centralised Facilities Management Centre for Shell Retail Pragma and Shell's longstanding asset management partnership has resulted in 80% downtime reduction on fuel pumps from 2012 to 2016. ### Contact the specialists ##### Tertius Janse Van Rensburg Strategic Solutions Executive LinkedIn ##### Guillaume Venter Strategic Solutions Executive Email me LinkedIn ### Other solutions Fuels Retail Training Asset Management Asset Management Implementation Contractor management
