TabWare's Preventive Maintenance (PM) program reduces equipment failures through planned and scheduled inspections and wear part replacement.
TabWare's equipment history can pinpoint equipment failure rates and causes of failures. PM programs can then be adjusted to to minimize or eliminate equipment failures.
TabWare's spare parts management ensures that proper parts are available when needed and reduces unneeded parts inventory resulting in improved availability and reduced costs.
TabWare provides technicians with instructions for machine setup, calibration and operation to improve product quality and throughput.
TabWare provides access to repair and maintenance instructions and manufacturer manuals through documents linked to equipment and work orders to improve quality of repairs and reduce the time it takes to repair equipment.
IMPLEMENTING A MAINTENANCE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
This chart illustrates the cost impact of implementing and effective Maintenance Improvement Program(MIP) from AssertPoint Reliability Solutions.
Total production costs of operations will intially move upward as maintenance operations implements the MIP program. Overall maintence costs at the initial phase of the program will increase due to implementing the MIP Program,equipment condition improvement and the move away from the status quo of "reative maintenance".
Over a short period, both maintenance costs and the cost of production will decrease as the organization implements the new work process improvements and equipment reliability increases. Moving forward, total production costs within the organization including maintenance costs and equipment conditioning costs will drop significantly as the organization fully implements the MIP Program.
Over all cost improvement will result from a decrease in maintenance program costs, improved efficiencies of the maintenance work force, and significant improvements in production up-time resulting from advances in equipment reliability.
