About The Mantua Group

The Mantua Group is a continuous improvement, agile, and LEAN company. Like American Express, which began as a stagecoach horse-drawn freight service and evolved into something quite larger, we continue to grow.

Today, we operate in the Asset Management, Reliability Engineering, and Maintenance Work Execution space but still retain operations supporting root cause failure analysis investigation services and digital photography, often needed to collect crucial evidence related to a failure incident.
