Lay the Foundations for Maintenance Maturity

If your teams are still responding reactively to maintenance issues, you’re not alone – however it’s time for change. ShireSystem Essentials is built to help you break free from reactive maintenance by giving you structure, visibility, and control. It’s the ideal launchpad for organisations ready to shift from ‘fix it when it breaks’ to ‘fix it before it fails’. 

With ShireSystem Essentials, you’ll establish key processes and digital systems that move you towards proactive, preventive maintenance, which is a critical first step on your maintenance maturity journey. 


 

 

ShireSystem Essential: Preventive Maintenance (Level 2)

Assets are logged, and maintenance is partially planned. Parts are managed, and reporting begins to inform improvements.

40% – 59% planned maintenance, improved structure and records. 

Why Choose ShireSystem Essentials? 

ShireSystem Essentials helps you take your first, most important step: evolving from reactive to preventive maintenance. Most ShireSystem customers at this stage of maturity, move from just 20% planned maintenance to over 40% within months, significantly reducing unplanned downtime, improving resource efficiency, and enabling smarter, data-led decisions. 

What you can achieve with ShireSystem Essentials?

ShireSystem Essentials delivers the core tools and capabilities you need to improve your operations, reduce risk, and build momentum. It’s designed to help you take control of your maintenance activities and unlock measurable improvements, fast. 

Here are three key ways ShireSystem Essentials delivers impact:

Reduce Unplanned downtime and costly breakdowns

Reactive maintenance leads to unexpected equipment failures, production stoppages, and expensive emergency fixes. With Essentials, you’ll establish a preventive maintenance programme that dramatically lowers the percentage of unplanned work.

Many customers shift from just 20% planned to over 40% planned maintenance within months of implementation, helping to cut emergency repair costs by up to 30% and significantly improving asset uptime. 

Lower costs and Unplanned Downtime

ShireSystem helps cut costs by streamlining maintenance management, reducing equipment downtime, and improving asset lifespan.

By enabling proactive, planned maintenance and minimising reactive repairs, it lowers labour, parts, and operational expenses. Real-time data and reporting also support smarter decision-making, helping businesses optimise resource use and avoid costly disruptions.

Improve Compliance

Strengthen compliance by providing a clear, auditable record of every maintenance task, inspection, and safety check. Automated reminders ensure statutory procedures are completed on time, while real-time dashboards flag overdue actions before they become breaches. Teams can demonstrate adherence to regulations during audits, avoiding fines and reputational damage.
