Facility readiness does not begin when a breakdown occurs. It starts with a clear plan that prevents recurring failures and keeps critical systems stable.
What is preventive maintenance?
It is scheduled inspection and maintenance based on asset condition and operating guidance, designed to identify early warning signs before they become disruptive failures.
How does it support continuity?
- Reduces unexpected breakdowns and unplanned downtime.
- Extends the operating life of equipment and systems.
- Organizes spare parts, resources and technical visits.
- Creates documented records for better decisions.
What makes a plan effective?
An effective plan requires an asset register, clear priorities, defined schedules and responsibilities, followed by performance review and continuous adjustment.
Conclusion
Preventive maintenance is not an isolated activity; it is part of an operating system that protects continuity and supports efficient spending.
