You have a preventive maintenance schedule to follow. How do you handle clients demanding immediate repairs?
-
Assess the urgency:Determine whether the client's request disrupts your schedule or poses a significant risk. This helps prioritize tasks effectively and ensures critical issues are addressed promptly.### *Communicate openly:Clearly explain your preventive maintenance plan and its importance, while discussing how immediate repairs could impact it. Transparency builds trust and helps clients understand the long-term benefits of sticking to the schedule.

Na minha experiencia lidar com clientes que exigem reparos imediatos, mesmo com um cronograma de manuten??o preventiva em andamento, requer empatia e comunica??o eficaz. Aqui est?o algumas abordagens que eu adotaria. Primeiramente, escutaria atentamente as preocupa??es do cliente. Mostrar que você se importa pode ajudar a acalmá-los. Comunique o cronograma de manuten??o preventiva e explique por que ele é importante. Destaque os benefícios a longo prazo e como isso ajuda a evitar problemas maiores no futuro. Pergunte sobre a gravidade do problema. Se for realmente urgente, veja se é possível ajustar a programa??o ou oferecer uma solu??o temporária.

prioritize assessing the urgency of the situation, explaining the importance of the preventive maintenance plan, and offering a timely solution that could involve temporarily interrupting the scheduled maintenance to address the critical issue; always communicate clearly with the client about the potential consequences of deviating from the planned maintenance schedule

KPIs such as Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) and Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) provide quantifiable metrics for evaluating the effectiveness of preventive maintenance and repair strategies. During a project maintaining industrial conveyor systems, I implemented KPIs to monitor the frequency and duration of system breakdowns. When a client demanded immediate repairs, I referred to the KPI data, which indicated that the system’s performance was stable and could withstand minor delays. I used this information to justify deferring non-critical repairs, assuring the client that the system’s overall reliability was not compromised. KPIs provide concrete metrics to justify repair prioritisation decisions, reducing unnecessary disruptions.

A PM schedule is not a panacea and something that should be adhered to at all "costs". A useful planned maintenance schedule should accommodate equipment criticality, however it is defined by the customer. Implementing a method of indicating critical equipment will help flag risk tolerance when it comes to weighing immediate repair vs. "following the schedule".
