The Strategy That Costs More Than It Saves “Run it till it breaks” sounds economical. No unnecessary maintenance, no wasted parts, maximum utilization. But this reactive strategy carries hidden costs that far exceed any perceived savings. The Visible Costs of Failure The Hidden Costs Nobody Tracks The Math Studies consistently show that reactive maintenance costs 3-5x more than planned maintenance over an asset’s lifetime. A Rs.50,000 bearing replacement done proactively costs Rs.50,000. The same bearing replaced after failure costs Rs.1.5-2.5 lakhs when you include all consequences. The Better Way Predictive maintenance gives you the best of both worlds: you run equipment until it actually needs attention (unlike time-based PM), but you catch issues before they cause failure (unlike run-to-failure). AI makes this practical and affordable. Ready to transform your maintenance operations? Visit aimyze.com
