Reduce unexpected downtime, improve equipment reliability, and control maintenance costs with flexible OEM maintenance agreements designed for transport and industrial equipment.

Why Maintenance Agreements Matter

Unexpected equipment failures can quickly lead to costly downtime, emergency repairs, delayed operations, and increased maintenance expenses. A maintenance agreement helps operators move from reactive maintenance to a planned maintenance strategy that prioritizes reliability, operational uptime, and long-term equipment performance. With Service & Parts Protect, you can:

Reduce unplanned downtime

Improve equipment reliability

Extend equipment life

Improve equipment availability

Control maintenance costs

Plan maintenance activities with confidence

What Is a Maintenance Agreement?

A maintenance agreement is a structured service plan designed to keep industrial and transport equipment operating reliably throughout its lifecycle.

Unlike reactive maintenance, where equipment is repaired after a failure occurs, maintenance agreements focus on preventive maintenance, scheduled inspections, OEM service expertise, and proactive replacement of critical components.

The goal is simple: prevent unexpected downtime, improve reliability, and create predictable maintenance costs.


Maintenance Agreement vs Reactive Maintenance

Reactive Maintenance 

Maintenance Agreement 

Repair after a failure occurs 

Prevent issues before failure 

Unpredictable repair costs 

Planned maintenance costs 

Higher downtime risk 

Lower downtime risk 

Emergency interventions 

Scheduled service visits 

Parts sourced when needed 

Planned parts availability 

Operational disruption 

More predictable operations

For operators focused on uptime and equipment reliability, preventive maintenance delivers a more predictable approach to service planning, maintenance costs, and operational performance.

The Risk of Reactive Maintenance

Waiting until equipment fails increases operational risk and often leads to:

  • Unexpected breakdowns
  • Emergency repair costs
  • Extended downtime while parts are sourced
  • Damage to related components
  • Missed deliveries
  • Reduced operational efficiency

Reactive maintenance makes budgeting and maintenance planning more difficult while increasing the potential impact of equipment failures.

How Preventive Maintenance Helps Reduce Downtime

Preventive maintenance focuses on identifying potential problems before they affect operations.

Service & Parts Protect helps reduce equipment downtime through:

  • OEM-approved technicians
  • Genuine OEM spare parts
  • Planned service intervals
  • Condition-based maintenance recommendations
  • Priority access to parts and support
  • Long-term maintenance planning

This proactive approach helps maximize uptime and improve overall equipment performance.
