reactive maintenance program

Reactive maintenance is a key CMMS benefit.

Asset-management software is essential to keeping many organizations running smoothly and efficiently these days, and Custodian CMMS is the best one to trust. One of the important services that this maintenance-management solution provides is a reactive maintenance program. This function allows users to report equipment breakdown easily and quickly from any location with online access. Custodian CMMS can send instant notifications of equipment failure to supervisors, for cases in which cost and downtime are limited.

No initial cost, less planning

Reactive maintenance, also referred to as breakdown or corrective maintenance, focuses on restoring equipment back to normal following breakdown. It offers a reactive strategy in which employees conduct repairs at the point of equipment failure. This method is recommended only for inexpensive components that are easy to replace, since unexpected production downtime, damaged equipment, overtime, and call-out costs can be very expensive for a business when more important machinery fails.

The Custodian CMMS reactive maintenance program offers many key benefits. For one, no initial cost and less planning are required than with preventive maintenance, so companies can merely let these assets run until they break down and then respond. In addition, breakdown maintenance can be more cost-effective for equipment that is not critical to the company’s overall service delivery, because this equipment has a minimal effect on business operations.

Third, less standby manpower is required in reactive maintenance. Organizations do not require personnel to waste valuable company time by performing frequent inspections. A company can even outsource corrective maintenance completely, which means that that specific skill set is not required among the workers.

The typical rule is that manufacturing plants should commit less than 20 per cent of equipment maintenance to a reactive maintenance program. This method is far less expensive in the short term, since the company is not investing in facility maintenance. But a reliable preventive maintenance plan is still vital for machinery that results in catastrophic loss when it shuts down.

The perfect solution for equipment maintenance, Custodian CMMS is the most affordable asset-management software available today, for preventive and reactive maintenance.
