Reactive Repair Costs
Definition
Breakdowns from neglected maintenance lead to higher repair bills, loan machines, and lost warranty validity. Preventative programs tailored to cycles reduce these overruns.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: AUD 2,000-10,000 per breakdown incident; loan machines at no cost but delays add indirect losses
- Frequency: Unscheduled, frequent in high-use environments
- Root Cause: Lack of cycle-based scheduling (e.g., every 1500 cycles)
Why This Matters
The Pitch: Laundry services in Australia 🇦🇺 waste AUD 2,000-10,000 per incident on emergency repairs. Automated scheduling cuts costs via planned maintenance.
