Asset & Maintenance Advisory

Maintenance regimes designed around how the asset actually behaves and what it actually costs.

Situations this practice answers

01
“Our maintenance costs are rising and availability is not improving.”
02
“We are moving from time-based to condition- or prediction-based maintenance and need to know whether the case holds.”

What we do

We review and design maintenance strategies and regimes; assess asset management systems and policy; analyse maintenance cost against availability; and support the move from time-based and fix-on-fail regimes to condition-based and prediction-based ones.

We look at depot and fleet maintenance arrangements, and at operations and maintenance readiness.

The transition from fixing what fails to maintaining what matters is a decision with a cost case, an engineering case and a contractual consequence. It is rarely wrong on only one of those.
