What is Operations and Maintenance?
Operations and Maintenance (O&M) refers to the essential processes for managing and sustaining systems, facilities, infrastructure and equipment to ensure they function efficiently and effectively throughout their lifecycle. O&M practices are critical across industries such as manufacturing, construction, energy, transportation and more. The key functions of an O&M department include:
Operations involve daily activities to efficiently run systems, including monitoring and adjustments for peak productivity.
Preventive and Corrective Maintenance focuses on extending equipment life through planned maintenance and reactive repairs.
Predictive Maintenance predicts potential failures to enable proactive planning and minimise downtime.
Asset Performance Management tracks and optimises all system assets to maximise safe and sustainable production.
Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) Management identifies and mitigates risks, improves EHS performance and ensures regulatory compliance.
Performance Monitoring uses data analysis to improve operational and maintenance efficiency.
Energy Efficiency initiatives focus on reducing energy consumption and environmental impact.
Budgeting and Planning allocate resources for maintenance, upgrades and long-term asset investments.
Comprehensive Documentation maintains accurate records for transparency and accountability.
Sustainability emphasises eco-friendly practices, waste reduction and energy conservation.
Work Management organises tasks, resources and workflows to meet operational goals.
Asset Lifecycle Information Management tracks all data and documentation related to assets throughout their useful life.

What is the relationship between operations and maintenance?
The relationship between operations and maintenance is symbiotic, with both functions intertwined for the seamless functioning of assets. Operations involve daily activities to run assets smoothly, maximising safe and sustainable production, while maintenance focuses on optimising productive asset availability. Preventive maintenance aligns with operations to prevent breakdowns, maintenance teams quickly respond during operation failures, data sharing informs decisions and continuous improvement ensures reliability and efficiency.
