Generalities
A ratio is the relationship between two data points.
A ratio allows measuring and evaluating a reality, controlling the values in
the time and to compare them to the set objectives. These are most often rates of
achievement of objectives or assistance in maintenance management.
Different types of ratios
• Ratios for maintenance and the overall performance of the company
• Ratios for the policy on maintenance and asset management
• Ratios related to budget analysis
• Ratios related to time analysis
• Ratios used for the management of maintenance personnel

repair/replacement of wear parts and a thorough revision
Cost of consumed parts
Ratio 13 = ---------------------------------------------------------
Personnel intervention costs + consumed parts
Ratio 14: related to the evolution of the inventory turnover rate
Value of maintenance stock
Ratio 14 = ------------------------------------------
Value of assets to be maintained
Ratios related to analysis
Ratio 15: expresses the utilization rate of assets (capacity margin investment)
Required time O (operational time)
Ratio 15 = ----------------- or ---------------------------- (PAMCO)
Total time A (total available time)
Ratio 16: indicator of the evaluation of the operational availability of goods
Effective availability time U
Ratio 16 = ------------------------------------- or -------- (PAMCO)
Total time T
Ratio 17: Asset utilization rate
Actual operating time E
Ratio 17 = ----------------------------------------- or -----
Effective availability time U
Ratio 18: expresses the penalty of unavailability suffered by the user by the
maintenance
Clean downtime for maintenance
Ratio 18 = ------------------------------------------------------------
Required time
Ratio 19: highlights the causes of unavailability due to maintenance.
Clean downtime for maintenance
Ratio 19 = ------------------------------------------------------------
Actual unavailable time
Ratio 20: Overall maintenance effectiveness indicator
Downtime for maintenance
Ratio 20 = -------------------------------------------------------------
Operating time or quantity of production
Ratio 21: Taux de défaillance
Number of failures 1
Ratio 21 = ------------------------------ = --------------
Operating time MTBF
Ratio 22: allows for the anticipation of intervention personnel costs by
regarding availability forecasts
Active maintenance time
Ratio 22 = -----------------------------------
Effective availability time
Ratio 23: highlights the importance of condition-based maintenance in
active maintenance interventions
Active time of conditional maintenance
Ratio 23 = -----------------------------------------------------
Active time for preventive maintenance
Ratio 24: highlights the importance of corrective maintenance in the
active maintenance interventions
Active time for corrective maintenance
Ratio 24 = ------------------------------------------------------------

Ratio 25: highlights the entire set of implementation times of the
corrective maintenance operations (administrative time, logistics, of
preparation, techniques ...
Additional corrective maintenance times
Ratio 25 = -------------------------------------------------------------
Corrective maintenance time
Ratio 26: highlights the importance of work preparation activities.
in relation to the actual interventions on the equipment
Work preparation time
Ratio 26 = ------------------------------------------------
Active maintenance time
Ratio 27: Indicate the share of prepared interventions in all
interventions carried out on the equipment
Time of prepared work
Ratio 27 = -----------------------------------
Active maintenance time
Ratios used for the management of maintenance personnel
Ratio 28 and 29: are related to staff training. They should be compared to the
the evolution of maintenance complexity and availability objectives.
Training maintenance time or costs
Ratio 28 = ------------------------------------------------------
Maintenance service staffing
Training maintenance time or costs
Ratio 29 = -------------------------------------------------------
Time or Cost of the company's training

Common questions
Powered by AIRatio 7 gives insights into cost management by measuring the operating cost per unit produced, incorporating both the value of the asset and maintenance costs. This ratio helps in assessing the efficiency of resource utilization in production and highlights areas for potential cost improvements .
Ratio 6 evaluates the technical efficiency of maintenance by comparing failure costs to the sum of maintenance and failure costs. It provides insight into how well a company's maintenance processes are mitigating failure-related expenses, thus reflecting maintenance effectiveness .
Ratio 15, which measures the utilization rate of assets relative to the required and available time, provides insights into how well a company manages its capacity. It is crucial for identifying potential inefficiencies in resource allocation and optimizing asset utilization .
Ratio 13, by comparing the cost of consumed parts to the sum of personnel intervention costs and consumed parts, helps differentiate between current expenses and more extensive revisions. This distinction is valuable in deciding between repairing or replacing parts, influencing the selection of appropriate maintenance strategies .
Ratio 5 evaluates economic efficiency by relating total maintenance costs and unavailability costs to revenue. It reflects how maintenance expenditures, including associated downtimes, impact the revenue generated, thus indicating the overall economic efficiency of maintenance operations .
Ratio 10 is significant because it compares the costs associated with revisions, modernizations, and renovations against ongoing maintenance costs. High values may indicate that replacement could be more cost-effective than maintaining the existing equipment, aiding strategic decision-making .
Ratio 8 facilitates inter-company comparisons by expressing the ratio of subcontracting costs to maintenance costs. By analyzing this ratio, companies can assess the extent to which subcontracting is used relative to internal maintenance efforts, providing insights into efficiency and strategy effectiveness across similar industries .
Ratio 18 quantifies the penalty of unavailability by assessing clean downtime for maintenance against the required operating time. It highlights the impact of maintenance-related interruptions on user operations, emphasizing the need for optimized maintenance to minimize operational penalties .
Ratios 16 and 17 complement each other by providing perspectives on availability and utilization. Ratio 16 measures operational availability by comparing effective availability time to total time, while Ratio 17 evaluates asset utilization by relating actual operating time to effective availability. Together, they offer a comprehensive view of how efficiently assets are used and maintained .
Ratio 21, which calculates the failure rate by dividing the number of failures by operating time, is crucial in reliability management. It allows companies to estimate the Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) and assess the reliability of their assets, facilitating better maintenance planning and reducing unexpected downtimes .
