Do you understand YOUR specific strengths and opportunities for imporovement?
Current State:
Does your maintenance department spend more time “firefighting” in a reactive environment rather than proactively preventing failures?
Do you have a clearly defined maintenance vision, mission, and improvement plan?
Do all departments work together to ensure minimum equipment downtime and maximum production output at minimum maintenance cost?
Would you consider your maintenance practices to be “world class”?
It is very difficult to know where to start if you don’t know from where you are starting.
Let’s Get Started.
