Why predictive maintenance is the future of facility management

Reactive maintenance waits for something to break. Calendar maintenance services equipment whether it needs it or not. Predictive maintenance services it when the data says it is about to need it.

Baselines for every asset

After a couple of weeks of readings, each asset has a normal range for temperature, vibration and power draw. Drift away from that baseline is the signal to schedule a visit.

Fewer emergency call-outs

Planned repairs cost less than emergency ones and can be grouped into a single visit. Facility teams typically see the biggest gain in fewer weekend and night call-outs.

Start small

Instrument the ten assets whose failure hurts most. The results from those usually make the case for the rest of the portfolio.
