Non-critical maintenance
Business-Focused Maintenance (BG 53/2016), written by Jo Harris and published by BSRIA in May 2016, describes four levels of maintenance:
- Discretionary: non-critical maintenance
- Statutory: Compliance maintenance
- Mandatory: Sector or organisation specific maintenance
- Optimal: Function critical maintenance
It defines non-critical maintenance as: ‘…the tasks that add no value to the business being supported, where a ‘run to fail’ approach can be considered. Some organisations will continue to maintain these assets to protect the value of the asset or to meet their sustainability commitments.’
