Guaranteed Availability
Involves a contractual guarantee tied to
assured maintenance procedures. Contract
can be complex
Normally only available with a RAMP or where
dealer has a technician monitoring
maintenance and booking of hours
Penalties are usually token
Needs good admin practices to keep records
Fuel consumption
The hydraulic excavators in the previous
example use about 360 l/hr when digging
Assume 90% time spent digging
A 5 l/hr difference (1.4%) gives
5 x .9 x 6000 = 27,000 l/yr @ 0.85/l = $23,000/yr
In the end
IF the numbers stack up and most other
factors are equal, the choice is often made
because of gut feel or confidence
Sometimes decisions are unfairly and
misguidedly influenced by personal opinion
Cow Harbour
Often, the decision is made for you (finance
availability single source)

4. Parts Cap
In House Maintenance
Very popular in large organisations
Customer has total control of maintenance and repair
Customer supplies facilities (workshops, field vehicles,
cranes, parts storage, welfare areas)
Customer supplies labour supplemented by hired in
specialist when necessary (line boring etc)
Customer holds some stock and relies on dealer for back up
and large items
Customer budgets for maintenance expenditure and
assumes the risk
WARRANTY on new machines and parts is important
Organisation is essential - record keeping, stock control etc
In House Maintenance
Advantages
More control over maintenance
Can be cheaper than RAMP
Cash flow better than a level payment RAMP
Ability to take risks that dealer wont take (NOT of
course unsafe ones)
Ability to use 3rd party parts and will fits once
out of warranty period
In House Maintenance
Disadvantages
Costs not fixed lots of potential forass biting!
More own labour, organisation control, skill gaps
Training issues
Needs slick systems
Pressure often to delay maintenance from own
people
No one to blame! Always grey areas in warranty
THANK YOU!
