"Reduce Downtime in Manufacturing"

This infographic examines three reasons why downtime rates are surging and offers a surprisingly simple solution to minimize disruptions.

Unplanned downtime is crippling asset-driven sectors like utilities and manufacturing. Worldwide, manufacturing firms are bleeding roughly $1.4 trillion every year, with the average large plant losing about 27 hours a month.

But there is a stopgap solution to these surging downtime rates: offering workers upskilling training that moves them from existing skillsets to the ones that asset maintenance demands.

This infographic breaks down the long- and short-term forces driving downtime rates and explains how training offsets them, including why:

  • An aging workforce and rising retirement rates mean fewer qualified professionals are available to prevent breakdowns and repair assets
  • Aging infrastructure that’s unable to withstand extreme weather causes more frequent disruptions 
  • The rising cost of spare parts, tariff uncertainty and supply chain challenges lead to deferred preventive maintenance, increasing the likelihood of downtime
