SUMMER MAINTENANCE
technical faults promptly. It is in this regard that gaining the support of senior leadership can be particularly beneficial.
If maintenance teams are able to showcase the practical benefits of planned maintenance to senior management, there is likely to be greater support for the cultural shift that may be required to move away from existing reactive practices.
“81% of retailers experience downtime at least once a year, amounting to substantial costs.”
Once personnel are on board and reporting procedures are enhanced, finding a convenient and simple way to track maintenance data should be the next key step. Ensuring all data is consistent and formulated through a computerised maintenance management system (CMMS) can create greater efficiencies and enhance planning.
By using a CMMS system, organisations can automatically generate recurring preventive maintenance (PM) tasks to reduce maintenance planner workloads, while also supporting reliability in facilities. Through the data-driven
optimisation of PM tasks, greater focus can be placed on maintenance activities that will provide real benefits to a facility’s equipment and operations. On average, that could mean cutting out about 30% of PMs, which can help planners use their time more effectively.
A perfect partner As FMs recognise the wider scope and demands of such maintenance strategies, working closely with an experienced single provider of end-to-end services – including a knowledgeable mechanical and electrical (M&E) team – can add significant value. Maintenance can be achieved to the highest standards of health and safety, and quality assurance, with all work NIC/EIC, ISO 18001, and Safe Contractor approved.
When it comes to planned maintenance strategies, ongoing safety, operation and cost management are of paramount importance. A trusted partner can provide ongoing technical support, inspection, testing and maintenance services for all portable and fixed appliances, both on a contractual, or ad-hoc basis.
Working with a partner like Sigma, with over 20 years’ experience of transforming commercial space, FM teams can seamlessly and cost-effectively deploy complex planned maintenance programmes across entire estates, while reducing costs of unscheduled downtime.
