Maintenance Systems

Are equipment breakdowns becoming a problem for your operation?

Do you make emergency repairs to get a piece of equipment back into operation?

Have you missed a delivery because a key component was down?

Do you never have the correct spare part on hand when you need it?

If you can answer YES to any of these questions, then you may have a problem with your maintenance program, and that problem may be costing you more than you know. You are not alone. Many companies can answer YES to all of these questions, because they just haven't given proper consideration to a good maintenance program. Maintenance can be expensive, and therefore it gets less attention then it should.

A good preventive maintenance (PM) program can eliminate, or greatly reduce, the occurrence of breakdowns, spare part shortages and emergency repairs. A PM program can actually increase your production capabilities due to increased available runtime and reduce downtime. WVMEP can give you the help you need to develop a solid preventative maintenance program.
