Preventive maintenance is one of the most overlooked items across the customers Bulk works with. Something as simple as changing the engine oil, the engine oil filter, and the fuel filters at the service interval can save a premature engine failure that runs $75,000, $80,000, up to $100,000 in costs. Proper oil sampling is a big part of that too.
Why Is Preventive Maintenance So Often Overlooked?
Preventive maintenance is a huge overlooked item for a lot of the customers Bulk works with. Bulk Equipment Corp., a brand-independent heavy equipment uptime partner serving heavy industry across the Midwest and Southeast, runs into it on machine after machine: the basic service that was due did not get done, and the machine kept running until it could not.
What Does a Premature Engine Failure Cost?
A premature engine failure can run $75,000, $80,000, up to $100,000 in costs. The thing that could have prolonged the engine is as simple as changing the engine oil and the engine oil filter on time, along with the fuel filters and whatever else the level of service calls for.
Where Does Oil Sampling Fit In?
Proper oil sampling is a big part of preventive maintenance too. It belongs alongside the oil and filter changes, as part of doing the level of service the machine calls for, on time.
On-time preventive maintenance is the core of Bulk’s field service work on customer fleets.
