Monitoring & Maintenance

A leading-edge blend of established maintenance methodologies and advanced technologies.

Monitoring & Maintenance

By cost-efficiently reducing asset failure reliability-centered maintenance (RCM) yields significant customer service, environmental, financial and regulatory benefits. Black & Veatch helps clients adopt a lean RCM approach to monitoring and maintenance: focusing on what a process or asset is intended to do, identifying factors that stop the process or asset from delivering, then implementing steps to mitigate those factors; creating a condition-based regime for asset maintenance.

The initial phase of an RCM program for a water utility led to an average 31 percent reduction in reactive maintenance across participating sites. One site alone reported $634,000 savings through failure mitigation and energy optimization and another RCM program client reported a 58 percent reduction in reactive and corrective tasks for a single facility in the first ten months of adoption.

While a significant amount of our asset management support is delivered at the strategic level; our monitoring and maintenance support laser-focused on implementing those strategies on the ground. We have designed and constructed many of our client’s assets, and developed strategies to manage them, so we are uniquely positioned to help clients maintain them in the most efficient, effective manner.
