Asset Maintenance Health Check: Score Your Operation in 10 Minutes

Asset Maintenance: Where Small Gaps Become Big Costs

Asset maintenance is one of those areas where “pretty good” can quietly become expensive. A missed lubrication interval here, a backlog of minor work orders there, a couple of assets running past their ideal service window - none of it feels dramatic in the moment. But over a quarter or a year, those small gaps stack up into unplanned downtime, reactive spend, frustrated teams, and equipment that simply doesn’t last as long as it should.

Why It’s Hard to Know What to Fix Next

Most maintenance leaders already know what good looks like:
clear preventive schedules, accurate asset data, fast response times, reliable spares, meaningful KPIs, and a culture that rewards prevention over fire-fighting.

The real challenge is pinpointing where you are today - and which improvements will have the biggest impact. For example:

• Are tasks inconsistent or not properly standardised?
• Is asset history incomplete or scattered across systems?
• Does PM compliance look fine on paper but slip in practice?
• Are reports telling you what happened, but not helping you prevent what’s next?

Introducing the 20-Point Asset Maintenance Audit

That’s exactly why we built the interactive 20-Point Asset Maintenance Audit. It’s a quick, practical questionnaire designed to help you benchmark your maintenance operation across the essentials, including:

• Asset Visibility & Data Management
• Preventive & Predictive Maintenance
• Work Order Management
• Compliance, Reporting & Continuous Improvement

In just a few minutes, you’ll get a clear score and a breakdown of strengths and opportunities, so you can prioritise improvements with confidence.

What You’ll Get From Your Score

Think of this as a health check for your maintenance maturity. Your results will help you answer three key questions:

1. What’s working well right now?
   See which parts of your process already support reliability and cost control.
2. Where are the hidden risks?
   Identify the “silent killers” that often look fine day-to-day but drive long-term issues.
3. What should you focus on next?
   Not every improvement has the same payoff. Your score highlights where change will deliver the biggest gains.

No Prep Needed - Just Answer Honestly

You don’t need to pull reports or gather data in advance. Just answer based on how maintenance runs in the real world today. The goal isn’t to pass or fail - it’s to give you a realistic baseline you can use to move from reactive work to proactive reliability.
