Some facility managers failed in their business because they overlooked a big factor that seems too small to neglect - Planned Maintenance Service.

Planned Maintenance Service is synonymous with the famous old saying, ‘An Ounce of Prevention is better than a pound of cure’. A business will survive by preventing business catastrophic events and scenarios to occur by applying in advance a maintenance service program. Most facility managers are successful in the first few months of the business operation, however, to sustain and maintain is totally a different level of a business challenge.

Primary factors to be considered is in the business plan. The business plan should not be taken lightly for just a business outline but be reviewed every now and then in order to ‘feel’ the reality of things happening in a business. Additionally, at the onset of the business activity, the facility manager should be able to visualize possible outcomes and predict the consequences of any business scenario.

However, with planned maintenance service the costly repairs and insurance paper works can be prevented by eliminating the problem before it happens. It is the best and most cost-effective maintenance solution that meets business needs.
