Why improve asset availability and performance?

Improving the availability and performance of assets and industrial equipment is a major strategic challenge for several reasons:

• Optimization of investments: Industrial equipment represents significant investments, so its optimal use is crucial to maximize the return on investment.
• Increase in production capacity: Better availability of equipment makes it possible to increase the volume of production without additional investment.
• Reduced operational costs: Preventive maintenance and performance optimization reduce the costs associated with breakdowns, emergency repairs, and production losses.
• Improved planning: Better predictability of equipment performance allows for more accurate production planning.
• Impact on quality: Well-maintained and efficient equipment contributes directly to the stability and quality of production.
• Safety and compliance: Well-maintained equipment is safer for operators and more likely to meet environmental and regulatory standards.

In short, optimizing the availability and performance of assets is an essential lever for improving the overall competitiveness of the company, both economically and operationally.

Approaches to improve asset availability and performance

Several complementary approaches make it possible to optimize the availability and performance of industrial assets:

The right maintenance

Preventive maintenance: this systematic approach aims to prevent breakdowns before they happen. It includes regular inspections, the planned replacement of wear parts and the periodic maintenance of equipment according to a set schedule.

Conditional and predictive maintenance: based on data analysis and the continuous monitoring of equipment, this approach makes it possible to anticipate potential failures through the analysis of trends, performance indicators, signal processing on vibration measurements or algorithms for detecting anomalies. It optimizes interventions by scheduling them at the most appropriate time.

Optimizing operational processes

This approach includes the standardization of procedures, the training of operators, and the continuous improvement of working methods. It aims to reduce human errors and optimize the use of equipment.

Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)

This global methodology involves all actors in the company in the maintenance of equipment. It focuses on autonomous maintenance by operators and aims to eliminate all losses associated with equipment.

Performance data analysis

The use of advanced analytical tools makes it possible to monitor key KPIs (TRS, MTBF, MTTR), to identify the root causes of problems and to optimize maintenance and operation strategies.

These different approaches can be combined and adapted according to the specific needs of each industrial installation to obtain the best results in terms of asset availability and performance.
