Taking The Time, So You Don’t Have To

Servicing chiropractic equipment in the Sioux Falls, South Dakota, area.

Initiating a new maintenance program is similar to beginning chiropractic treatment of a new patient. First you want to fix what’s broken (treat the acute condition). Then you come up with a maintenance schedule to extend times between breakdowns (routine adjustments), and maybe you can do some root cause analysis to determine why it broke in the first place and take steps to prevent recurrence (rehab).  

Most industries work at striking a balance between production and maintenance. Maintenance strategies range from “run it ‘till it breaks”, to complex monitoring systems that predict when machine failure is imminent. The goal is maximizing “up-time” to keep production going.

In the clinical setting, it might seem hard to justify preventive maintenance if there will be a reduction of productivity due to the time allotted for that preventive maintenance.  However, when the time lost for maintenance is weighed against the time lost for fixing damaged and broken equipment, maintenance results in better long term productivity.

In order to maintain each clinic’s productivity, my goal is to first fix whatever non-functioning equipment you have, then work with you to find a schedule of inspection and maintenance that will have a minimal impact on your patient encounters, while maximizing the useful life of your equipment.
