MAINTENANCE PLANNING AND ASSESSMENT

Maintenance planning and maintenance assessment are Whole-of-Life roles. BMM have a long-term focus and address issues associated with major business decisions for any commercial development. Maintenance plans identify short and long-term actions and targets that impact the client’s asset, its value, and return over the long term including life cycle costs. Strategic maintenance and asset planning links stakeholder demands and related legislative requirements with the risks and costs associated with maintaining and managing the asset. It also allows maintenance expenditure to be focussed in areas of greatest need in accordance with the demand for maintaining the required commercial return on investment. These roles are best commenced in the planning and design review stages of a project and continue throughout. As a Whole-of-Life role, it is an area where the BMM approach adds value.
