Operations & maintenance

Preventative maintenance versus emergency repair

Use planned inspection and risk treatment to reduce avoidable failures.

01

Emergency work restores service

Emergency response is necessary after a fault, but it usually takes place under time pressure and after users are already affected.

02

Preventative work manages exposure

Route inspections, vegetation or access checks, asset records, chamber condition, warning-marker checks and risk monitoring can identify problems earlier.

03

Use both deliberately

A mature maintenance plan defines inspection frequency, fault priorities, spares, call-out arrangements, escalation, target restoration and reporting.

Use the guide as a starting point.

Every route, organisation and regulatory environment is different. Share the location and project objective with African Dream for a more specific discussion.
