Introduction:

Asset & Maintenance Management can deliver a major contribution to the return on investment and output of a company by realizing the best balance between realized performance (availability, reliability), risk (safety, image, compliance), and cost. We can only do that by making sure that our maintenance process is as effective and efficient as possible. But how to do that in daily hectic practice?

Therefore, asset & maintenance managers must strive toward the implementation of maintenance best practices. And have insight into the possible performance gaps and how risky they are.
