Unexpected breakdowns are one of the biggest headaches for any facilities team. Whether it’s a failed switchboard or a HVAC unit conking out on a 35-degree day, the ripple effect across staff, tenants or operations can be painful — and expensive.

Predictive maintenance flips that risk on its head. It’s a smarter way to manage electrical and mechanical systems, using real-time data to spot issues before they turn into downtime.

Predictive maintenance uses live data from your systems to keep an eye on how they’re really performing, allowing early detection of any issues that need addressing.

Sensors monitor things like temperature, vibration, and electrical load — and send alerts when something looks off. You get early warning signs, instead of unexpected failures.

• Downtime Wrecks Schedules
  A tripped switchboard or HVAC shutdown can throw an entire day off. Predictive systems flag the signs early — action happens before assets fail.
• Infrastructure and Equipment Lasts Longer
  Switchboards, chillers and air handlers are major investments. Condition monitoring prevents avoidable stress and breakdowns, extending the life of core systems.
• Efficiency Improves
  Out-of-tune systems burn more power and push emissions up. When equipment runs within spec, energy use drops — and so do costs.

1. Identify priority assets — HVAC units, switchboards, control panels
2. Install sensors — temperature, pressure, vibration, current draw
3. Connect data — integrate with your BMS or run standalone analytics
4. Set rules and alerts — link anomalies to maintenance actions
5. Refine — adjust based on asset behaviour and response results

• Fewer breakdowns
• Lower reactive maintenance costs
• Smaller energy bills
• Better asset planning

Predictive maintenance is fast becoming the new baseline for building management. It gives you more control, more visibility, and fewer surprises But the results depend on getting it right.

If your electrical or HVAC systems are critical to how your site runs, don’t leave it to guesswork. Work with a qualified team who understands the systems, the risks, and how to keep things running before problems start.
