Casablanca – OCP Maintenance Solutions (OCP MS), a subsidiary of Morocco’s OCP Group specializing in industrial maintenance services, has announced the opening of its first subsidiary in Saudi Arabia, marking a significant milestone in its international expansion strategy. The new entity, based in Riyadh and operating under the name I-Sense International, reflects the company’s ambition to strengthen its presence in strategic markets and export its technical expertise beyond Morocco.

This move comes as part of OCP MS’s broader effort to position itself closer to capital-intensive industrial ecosystems characterized by high operational demands. Saudi Arabia, with its large-scale industrial projects, energy transformation agenda, and strong investment in infrastructure, offers a favorable environment for advanced maintenance services that focus on performance, reliability, and operational continuity.

Strategic expansion in a high-growth market

The establishment of I-Sense International in Riyadh is intended to serve as a regional hub, enabling OCP MS to respond more effectively to the needs of industrial operators in the Gulf region. The company’s leadership views the Saudi market as a strategic anchor point due to its industrial dynamism, long-term development programs, and growing demand for technical expertise in sectors such as energy, mining, chemicals, cement, and manufacturing.

By operating locally, OCP MS aims to enhance proximity to clients, improve response times, and deliver maintenance solutions aligned with international standards. The subsidiary will provide a range of services focused on improving asset reliability, optimizing industrial performance, and ensuring cost efficiency across complex and capital-intensive operations.

From business unit to international player

OCP Maintenance Solutions was established on September 26, 2017 as a business unit within OCP Group. Over time, it developed a structured and advanced maintenance offering built on operational excellence, asset reliability, and continuous performance improvement. This gradual and controlled growth enabled the entity to evolve into a fully-fledged subsidiary, equipped with the governance, technical capabilities, and operational autonomy required to operate in international markets.

The company’s development model emphasizes the integration of innovation, data-driven decision-making, and best-in-class maintenance practices. This approach has allowed OCP MS to build a solid track record and gain recognition among industrial players both within Morocco and abroad.

Proven model across multiple regions

Prior to its entry into Saudi Arabia, OCP Maintenance Solutions had already deployed its model in several countries across Europe, Africa, and Asia. Its international references include operations and partnerships in France, Switzerland, Spain, Côte d’Ivoire, and India. These experiences have demonstrated the robustness and transferability of its maintenance model, as well as its ability to operate in diverse regulatory, operational, and industrial environments.

The company’s capacity to adapt to different industrial contexts while maintaining high standards of performance and safety has been a key factor in its international growth. The Saudi subsidiary builds on this experience, positioning OCP MS to further scale its activities in the Middle East and neighboring regions.

Serving a broad range of industrial sectors

OCP Maintenance Solutions currently supports industrial clients across a wide spectrum of sectors. These include mining, chemicals and petrochemicals, cement, steel, paper manufacturing, and the beverage industry. Across these industries, the company focuses on enhancing operational reliability, extending asset lifecycles, reducing downtime, and optimizing maintenance costs.

Its services are designed to support both preventive and predictive maintenance strategies, integrating operational data, performance indicators, and continuous improvement methodologies. This comprehensive approach aims to improve the overall performance of industrial installations while strengthening safety standards and environmental compliance.

Contributing to the global reach of Moroccan expertise

Beyond its commercial objectives, the expansion of OCP Maintenance Solutions into Saudi Arabia aligns with OCP Group’s broader ambition to promote Moroccan industrial expertise on the global stage. The company’s international growth reflects the increasing competitiveness of Moroccan industrial services and their ability to meet complex technical requirements in global markets.

By exporting its maintenance model and technical know-how, OCP MS contributes to enhancing the visibility of Morocco’s industrial capabilities and supports the development of long-term partnerships with international stakeholders.

Outlook and future development

With the launch of I-Sense International, OCP Maintenance Solutions enters a new phase of its international development. The company plans to consolidate its presence in Saudi Arabia while exploring further opportunities across the Gulf region and other high-growth markets.

Looking ahead, OCP MS aims to continue strengthening its operational excellence, expanding its service portfolio, and investing in innovation to meet the evolving needs of industrial operators. Its strategy remains focused on delivering high value-added maintenance solutions that combine performance optimization, cost control, and asset reliability.

As global industries face increasing pressure to improve efficiency, sustainability, and resilience, OCP Maintenance Solutions positions itself as a long-term partner capable of supporting complex industrial systems through advanced maintenance practices. The Saudi expansion represents both a strategic opportunity and a reflection of the company’s broader ambition to become a reference player in industrial maintenance at the international level.
