Why is Maintenance Management Important?

Maintenance directly impacts the long-term success of an organization. Assets that are poorly maintained experience frequent, unexpected downtime, and cause a ripple effect. Instability, inconsistent product quality, stopped production, and high operational costs jeopardize an organization’s profitability and longevity.

When done properly, maintenance management keeps assets in optimum operating condition. Less disruption in production or service leads to efficient operations, increases quality, and improves productivity. In addition, maintenance management lowers operational costs, protects the organization from liability, and improves environmental and personal safety.

 

Objectives of Maintenance Management

All forms of maintenance management share similar objectives no matter the industry, plant, product or service offered. The following are some objectives of maintenance management:

• Minimizing asset failure and downtime

• Extending asset life

• Planning maintenance work

• Cost control and budgeting

• Improving product quality

• Developing improved policies, procedures, and standards

• Complying with regulations

• Ensuring the safety of personnel

Each of these objectives is closely tied to one another and is crucial to the success of the organization.
