6 BENEFITS OF PPM
1
Improved equipment life
The primary aim of PPM is to enhance the productivity of your equipment and to prolong its longevity. By ensuring the equipment is running efficiently and for long term, this eliminates the need to replace plant and equipment prematurely.
2
Decreased downtime
When equipment is operating at its maximum efficiency, there is a reduction in equipment downtime, this in turn increases the productivity of your business. Be it A/C or refrigeration, downtime costs money.
3
Reduced overhead costs
PPM enhances the longevity of equipment and so reduced the need for potential expenditure on equipment replacement in future years. There is also likely to be a reduction in energy supply costs as equipment in good working order often consumes less power. Highly efficient equipment therefore reduces overhead costs, leading to an increase in profit margins.
4
Improved maintenance scheduling
As PPM is scheduled and planned around your business activities, it is a more economical use of a maintenance engineer, as it will not be as costly and time consuming to arrange, as with emergency and reactive basis.
5
Bypasses the need for large scale repairs
The regular nature of PPM prevents the accumulation of small problems turning into a larger one, as components and equipment in need of repair are noticed at early stages of failure during maintenance checks.
6
Improved workplace safety
Safety in the workplace also involves having safe working plant and equipment, which improves morale and has the potential to reduce lost time to sickness.
