When it comes to installing complex projects, the work doesn't stop after the last piece of the system is installed. Your project will require ongoing operations and maintenance (O&M) services. Currently, 34% of unexpected equipment downtime is due to aging equipment. This unexpected downtime could be avoided with proper operations and maintenance. These services are vital across all industries to ensure efficiency and improved performance.

What is Operations and Maintenance
Operations and maintenance services, like measurement & verification services, are processes of upkeep for your project. For each unique project, O&M services ensure that system uptime and production are optimized, optimizing return on investment. There are four different types of O&M services: reliability centered, preventative, predictive and reactive maintenance.

Types of O&M services
+ Reliability centered maintenance is the O&M practice that anticipates different types of failures in commonly installed systems. This results in a maintenance plan tailored to each type of equipment installed.
+ Preventive maintenance involves collaboration with subcontractors and facility managers to create a scheduled maintenance plan. This maintenance plan involves taking pieces of equipment offline for brief periods of time for inspections and repairs that will ensure the reliability and life space of the system.
+ Predictive maintenance is an O&M practice that utilizes sensor and performance data to determine when a piece of equipment may not be performing at peak efficiently and subsequently schedule maintenance.
+ Reactive maintenance is performed at times of failure to inform and direct maintenance staff of the proper course of action.
