From on the blog that i follow, http://blog.mintek.com/Enterprise_Asset_Management/bid/31167/Real-Life-CMMS-EAM-Crisis-Avoidance
If you ever had doubt as to the true value of an maintenance schedules and preventive maintenance then this incident should convince you to look into a CMMS/EAM solution.
How it was discovered:
■Maintenance workers went out to the site to perform scheduled maintenance by replacing a filter on a generator used to convert steam into electricity
■When replacing the filter they noticed an oil leak
■The plant was immediately shut down until repairs were made
Had maintenance not been scheduled the leak could well have manifested itself into a disaster of nuclear proportions. Making sure maintenance is performed, equipment inspection and doing preventive maintenance are all part of an EAM.
Cost of parts - $10 plus
Cost of Labor - $ 100 plus
Cost of EAM - $ 10,000 plus
Cost of averting a nuclear disaster - "Priceless"
