Maintenance Strategies
Maintenance strategies are planned approaches to keep equipment and systems running efficiently and reliably. They include methods like preventive maintenance (regular inspections and repairs before problems occur), predictive maintenance (using data to predict and address issues early), and reactive maintenance (fixing problems after they happen). The goal is to reduce downtime, extend equipment life, and control costs by choosing the most suitable approach based on the equipment’s importance, usage, and condition. Effective strategies balance cost, risk, and operational needs to ensure smooth, safe, and cost-efficient operations.
