Abstract
The City of Roseville 's Environmental Utilities Maintenance Department, located in California, has implemented a new maintenance strategy. New positions were created, new procedures were established, and technologies were embraced to monitor machine conditions. This is a relatively new maintenance strategy in water and wastewater plant maintenance and measures of success have not been established. Data from the computerized maintenance management system, DataStream MP2, was used to analyze the effects of the implementation. Leaders in asset management in the manufacturing industries experience a 30% to 40 % drop in maintenance labor hours when a similar
maintenance strategy is introduced The City of Roseville experienced a 49% drop in maintenance labor hours without fully implementing the program. Although the City of Roseville has experienced such a significant drop in labor hours, more resources dedicated to gathering data on machine health should drive labor hours down further.
