Understanding your plant

Traditional maintenance techniques are often based on a combination of guesswork and the average performance of an item of plant in an average situation. In the real world, however, each piece of equipment will be subjected to different running hours and different conditions. We believe, therefore, that the maintenance should understand and reflect these differences.

Thanks to a wide range of analytical and monitoring techniques, Optimum is able to do just that. Using a carefully selected blend of innovative techniques, we are able to build an accurate picture of the condition of your plant, identify any problems that may be developing and take decisive action before a minor problem becomes a major catastrophe. Armed with this information we can also predict potential breakdowns and life expectancy of plant, helping you to manage capital expenditure budgets with greater confidence. Any associated downtime can also be scheduled to minimise disruption to the organisation.

Each monitoring regime is geared to the criticality of specific systems or components, so that the most important items receive the highest levels of protection. This is combined with exception reporting, which only highlights issues of concern, enhances levels of communication to the client and ensures critical issues requiring prompt attention are not obscured by high volumes of non-critical information.
