You know you get 32% wrench time (157 minutes out of 480 minutes daily!) doing unplanned maintenance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eYou also know that maintenance work requires managing a thousand details. There is rarely enough time or bandwidth to manage everything on the fly. If one little thing is missing, the job stops, and productivity goes down the drain.\u003cbr\u003eMaintenance planning identifies everything needed to do a job so that scheduling can get those ducks in a row before the job starts. That alone gives you maintenance work that is five times safer, half the cost, and 30% or more improvement in wrench time. It also cuts frustration to improve morale. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe challenge is that everyone has to be on the same page. Maintenance Planning Cuts Waste and Frustration is written for maintenance workers and new planners to understand maintenance planning and encourage them to get on the same page by getting involved-using the plan, commenting on it, and improving it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMaintenance Planning Cuts Waste, and Frustration provides your organization with a lighthearted, fun, reality-based graphic novel format training tool. Maintenance Planning starts with examples of a lack of planning, shows why there is so much resistance to planning, and then dissects and demonstrates techniques for effectively planning maintenance work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMaintenance Planning Cuts Waste, and frustration uses real examples from the shop floor. It shows the genuine concerns of the senior trade staff and provides them with reasons to support the program. It focuses on the activities that need to happen to reduce the barriers to productivity. This work can also educate people outside maintenance who must work with maintenance. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Maintenance Planning Cuts Waste and Frustration is part of the \"\u003cb\u003eElements of Great Maintenance Management\u003c\/b\u003e\" series. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJoel Levitt has been an author, trainer, and consultant for over 35 years.
