Is a maintenance and repair contract the best option for your business? Is the contract a good deal, or should you carry out the maintenance in-house?
Maintenance Contract Analysis Service

When negotiating maintenance contracts, it helps to understand how they are worked out and for a silent bid to be carried out to assess the value of them to your business. This is where our Maintenance Contract Analysis service is of value.


Deliverables
An accurate silent bid on the cost of maintaining the equipment in-house.
An effective negotiating tool that allows you to evaluate the dealer's bid and proposed variations.

Methodology

The cost of running any piece of equipment varies with time and the severity of the application. This correlates directly with when the maintenance work needs to be carried out and can swing up and down significantly, depending upon where the machine is in its lifecycle.

We help you estimate the availability of the equipment over the life of the contract and ensure that this fits in with your mine planning needs.

We use detailed lists of maintenance tasks, their frequency and expected cost to work out for you what the dealer should be charging.

Using this methodology replicates the way most dealers will work the contract out and puts you in a very strong bargaining position as you have a clear understanding of the risk of the contract and the real costs of carrying out the work.

With access to data from major manufacturers and a database of comparative operating costs, we are in a position to provide you with impartial advice on equipment maintenance costs.
