\u00a0It hasn\u2019t been too long since most maintenance teams were primarily reactive<\/em> organizations. The bulk of their day was spent answering phone calls and performing unplanned repairs. Making decisions on the fly meant sometimes prioritizing those repairs based on who was screaming the loudest.<\/p>\n

Today, though, things are rapidly changing in the maintenance office. Smart, proactive<\/em> maintenance managers are taking advantage of modern technologies to forecast, manage, and monitor maintenance activities. And they\u2019re using preventive and predictive maintenance tools and strategies to keep assets running and unplanned maintenance to a minimum. Their phones still ring, but it\u2019s not just incoming repair requests anymore. Often those calls are from senior managers, CFOs, COOs, and even CEOs who want detailed, accurate information from the maintenance department on what\u2019s impacting productivity, profitability, and corporate progress.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s changed? It\u2019s called data-driven management, and it\u2019s a trend that\u2019s here to stay.<\/p>\n
