• Reduce costs from scheduling technician time and
equipment
2.Asset
Management
• 18 month rolling budgets and forecasts
• Avoid downtower rebuilds with increased
uptower replacements
• Reduce mobilization cost by bundling crane
visits
• Avoid downtime with inventory available
5.Risk
Management
• Reduce insurance and extended warranty
costs
• Reduce annual gearbox replacements with
preventative O&M recommendations
• Reduce long-term gearbox O&M cost with
“right first time” procurement
• Reduce insurance premium from risk
management
4.Supply
Chain
• Improve terms and costs with key suppliers
• Reduce risk of exceeding O&M budgeting
• Reduce inventory storage required to mitigate
failure risk
• Reduce unit cost of gearbox purchases with long-
term agreements
