Downtime & Cost Reporting FAQs

Get answers to common questions about downtime tracking and cost analysis

Essential downtime KPIs include Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF), Mean Time To Repair (MTTR), Equipment Availability Percentage, Planned vs Unplanned Downtime Ratio, and Cost of Downtime per Hour. Additionally, track First-Time Fix Rate and Emergency Maintenance Percentage to identify systemic issues. These metrics provide a comprehensive view of equipment reliability and maintenance effectiveness.

True downtime cost includes direct costs (repair labor, parts, vendor services) plus indirect costs (lost revenue, contract penalties, customer dissatisfaction, overtime to catch up, rental equipment). Calculate by multiplying hourly revenue loss by downtime hours, adding repair costs, and factoring in any penalties or lost business. Integration with tech time tracking ensures accurate labor cost capture.

High-value reports include Cost Per Mile/Hour Analysis, PM vs Reactive Cost Comparison, Top 10 Cost Drivers Report, Equipment Lifecycle Cost Analysis, and Vendor Performance Cost Impact. These reports identify where maintenance dollars deliver the best returns and highlight opportunities for cost reduction through process improvements or equipment replacement decisions.

Predictive analytics analyze historical failure patterns, operating conditions, and sensor data to forecast equipment failures before they occur. This allows scheduling maintenance during planned downtime, ordering parts in advance, and avoiding emergency repair premiums. Organizations typically see 30-50% reduction in unplanned downtime and 25-35% lower maintenance costs through predictive maintenance programs.

World-class fleet availability targets range from 92-95% for heavy-duty equipment operating in severe conditions, and 95-98% for standard operations. Critical revenue-generating equipment should target 98%+ availability. Track both mechanical availability (equipment capable of operating) and operational availability (equipment actually in use) to identify both maintenance and utilization opportunities.
