INTRODUCTION FOR MAINTENANCE COST REDUCTION THE RIGHT WAY WITHOUT UNDESIRABLE IMPACT ON PRODUCT QUALITY

Many of us have had bad experience of cost initiatives that have failed to deliver lasting gains. Why is this such a difficult challenge? The underlying challenges in maintenance cost reduction without undesirable impact on product quality include resistance from the organisation, to cut a little from each division as a acceptable way to share the pain, rather than looking at where resources could be best deployed or the underlying reasons why costs in some areas are needlessly high.

Start with strategy, have a clear view of your strategy and ensure it is consistently understood across the organisation, align costs to strategy, differentiate the strategically-critical good costs from the non-essential bad costs, set direction and show leadership, deliver cost optimisation as a strategic, maintenance transformation programme, create a culture of cost optimisation, ensure you embed a culture of ownership and continuous improvement.
