In the current landscape of streamlined and efficient operations, it is imperative that we do not rely on breakdowns. In fact, our approach should be to treat responding to breakdowns as a rare occurrence in our daily workload, rather than the norm. A successful and efficient maintenance operation must break free from the mindset of fixing things only when they break. The ultimate objective of the maintenance department should be to prevent breakdowns, enhance the availability and reliability of assets, and achieve these goals with the lowest possible cost.
