The U.S. Department of Energy

This estimate is based on data measured by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for companies in any industrial sector: switching from reactive to preventive maintenance cuts its share from over 55% (industry average) to under 10% (industry-leading companies), with average cost savings of 12% to 18%.

The same guide also highlights the concrete benefits of a CMMS: spotting problems before they cause a failure, increasing the share of planned maintenance, forecasting spare parts needs more accurately, and keeping equipment performance steady over time.

Questions about the savings calculator

The estimate applies a savings rate of 12% to 18% to the annual maintenance cost you enter — the average range measured by the U.S. Department of Energy for companies that have switched from reactive to preventive maintenance.

Generally yes: the Department of Energy data is based on general industrial surveys, applicable to companies in any industrial or commercial sector, not just energy.

Reactive maintenance only takes place after a piece of equipment has already broken down, with no preventive planning. It's the most common type of maintenance, but also the most expensive, due to unplanned downtime and urgent repairs.

No, it's an estimate based on industry-average data: actual results vary by sector, fleet size and each company's maintenance organization.

They are reference values developed by Studio ARCHIMEDE, distinct from Department of Energy data: you can freely adjust them — cost incidence and savings percentages — with your own company's data to get a personalized estimate.
