Preventative Plant Maintenance

Scheduled mechanical maintenance contracts that replace unplanned breakdowns with predictable cost, measurable uptime, and documented SHEQ compliance — for mines, factories, and municipal utilities across Namibia.

Maintenance Contracts

Reactive Maintenance Is the Most Expensive Model

Reactive breakdown maintenance

  • No warning before failure — first indication is production stopping
  • Emergency repair rates 40–80% above scheduled work — no price certainty
  • Cascading failures: one seized bearing destroys gearbox, coupling, and shaft
  • Unplanned downtime on safety-critical equipment creates audit and insurance exposure

Preventative maintenance contract

  • Scheduled inspections catch bearing wear, misalignment, and corrosion before failure
  • Fixed contract cost — no emergency premiums, predictable monthly OPEX
  • Condition monitoring data shows deterioration trend well before catastrophic failure
  • Documented maintenance records support SHEQ compliance and insurance requirements

How a Contract Works

From Asset Audit to Ongoing Schedule

Plant Condition Assessment

We conduct a full mechanical audit of your plant. Each asset is rated by criticality and current condition — this becomes the baseline for your maintenance schedule.

1–2 days on site

Documented Maintenance Schedule

We produce a written plan specifying inspection intervals, lubrication schedules, and replacement triggers per asset. You review and approve before we begin.

3–5 working days

Scheduled Visits & Condition Reports

Our teams execute the schedule on agreed dates. Each visit produces a written report with condition ratings, work completed, and upcoming risk items. Fully auditable.

Ongoing

All maintenance reports are retained and available for SHEQ compliance audits and insurance documentation.

Frequently Asked

Maintenance Contract Questions Answered

For critical raw water or slurry pumps, we recommend quarterly baseline analysis. High-stress environments like Tsumeb smelters may require monthly diagnostics to prevent catastrophic bearing failure.
Yes. We structure custom SLAs that guarantee rapid deployment times, scheduled weekly/monthly inspections, and prioritized breakdown response across all our SADC coverage areas.
Yes. Techniques like thermal imaging and acoustic emission testing are performed while machinery is under normal operational load, causing zero downtime during the audit.
