Life Cycle Cost.
Although equipment-replacement costs do not usually appear in the maintenance budget, those costs are irrevocably related. Slipshod maintenance, continued deferral of maintenance, neglect of inspection and lubrication all contribute to shortened equipment life. On the other hand, inadequate provision of funds for equipment replacement means a commitment of excessive maintenance funds to keep deteriorated equipment in service.
Operating Cost
Operating costs are the direct cost of supplies, materials, and labor needed for maintaining the equipment everyday. Some indirect costs are storage, tools, cost of training, hiring and firing, ect.
Cost of Downtime
The most elusive cost impact of a maintenance program is the cost of downtime. When equipment is out of service on an unscheduled basis that cost does not appear in the maintenance budget. It rarely appears as an item in any budget! Yet this is potentially the largest single justification for the cost of a maintenance program. This could lead to losing a potential or an existing tenant. Tenants expect to have a comfortable environment and if they do not they will most likely look for occupancy elsewhere. Panzer, Inc can keep downtime to a minimum and keep existing and future tenants comfortable.
Energy Consumption
The cost of the energy required to operate equipment is usually not considered part of the cost of maintenance for that equipment, but performance can have a dramatic impact on energy costs.
For example: Dirty condenser surfaces raise head pressure, thus increasing compressor horsepower; clogged air filters, dirty evaporator coils will reduce airflow and raise system pressure drop, increasing fan horsepower; improperly set or out-of-calibration controls deliver extra heating and cooling. The cost of extra energy use, resulting from similar situations, can be offset by the cost of the maintenance program, whether that fact is recognized or not!
