Situation:
A primary metals manufacturer in the U.S., after a $25 million expansion and rapid growth, needed to improve their lubrication program to reduce unplanned downtime and maintenance costs.
Recommendation:
The manufacturer adopted Redlist’s lubrication management app on the recommendation of their oil distributor. The app helped organize lubrication tasks, allowed technicians to report issues immediately, and facilitated quick scheduling and repairs.
Impact:
The new system prevented 66 potential failures, saving $165,000 in downtime, and $24,750 on equipment. They also saw a 97% reduction in repair time, resulting in $19,320 saved in OSHA fines, totaling first-year savings of $209,070, with ongoing annual improvements.
