In a reactive mode of environment, we always complain about the lack manpower resources to address equipment failures, but when reliability starts to improve, our people becomes more visible and we always wonder where they had been in the first place. In reality, maintenance is not really out numbered, they are just too busy dealing with breakdowns. Maintenance is not measured by how fast they perform repair but how they were able to analyze the failure themselves.
