Over a 30-year period, maintenance and operations costs of a building account for 98% of the total cost, while the initial design and construction account for only 2%. By investing in preventative maintenance and upgrading to newer electrical systems, you can help reduce your total operation cost while also improving your environmental, social, and corporate governance.

Preventative Maintenance Types
- Predictive Maintenance
- Monitoring equipment detects faults in the equipment of immediate repairs or replacements when equipment meets predefined “unacceptable” levels. This avoids costly major repairs in the future
- Reliability-Centered Maintenance
- Root cause failure analysis and proactive maintenance techniques will prioritize the performance of expensive and important equipment maintenance while deferring maintenance on inexpensive or less important equipment
- Predictive Maintenance
