Hi I’m Noto. Today I’d like to say optimize repari cost in plant. Once I menthion this topics at before article.

[embed]How to reduce repair costs on plant maintenance Many people ask me that can you reduce repair cost in 20XX ? or Is there a possibility to reduce repair costs?medium.com

Today, I would like to explain in more detail how to use a CMMS app (MECHAPHISTOS) to optimize repair costs.

The way to optimize repair cost.

MECHPHAISTOS allows you to keep track of your task list and announces upcoming tasks and when major repairs are due. It is linked to the task list and important equipment list, so it is clear whether a task has a high or low priority. Therefore, you can adjust the schedule by comparing the preventive maintenance cycle with the task priority.

For example, let’s say a business owner wants to reduce repair costs in 2024, but various preventive maintenance will occur based on the maintenance cycle.

（In the first place, without MECHPHAISTOS, these tasks could not be managed, and we would not know that tasks would occur there...）

Our first consideration is not to reduce maintenance tasks, but to optimize maintenance even further.

Steps to optimize repair costs

Below is a list of steps to optimize your repair costs.

1. You should first check to see if any tasks are over-maintained depend on priority of crtitical equipment list or count of machine trouble.
2. Next, you will need to reschedule your over-maintained. For example, it is effective to postpone or suspend the maintenance cycle, or to change the maintenance method.
3. Also, regardless of over-maintenance, it is necessary to reconsider whether periodic maintenance is really appropriate. For example, you can optimize by checking whether maintenance tasks have been set for equipment that has few problems or is not very important.

But don’t forget. If those tasks are deemed necessary, they are simply postponed and need to be done somewhere. If you do not do this and cause major problems, you will have to pay more for repairs.

Conclusion

In conclusion, use MECHPHAISTOS to review your tasks. As a result, review over-maintenance or unfocused maintenance. As a result, it is possible to reduce trouble in equiopment and also make it easier to control cash flow for repairs. Additionally, since you can see trends in future repair costs in advance, you can set maintenance policies according to your company’s situation.
