As technology becomes more efficient, it will mean more consumption of resources rather than less. (!Steam Train!)

The Waddington Effect

Regular Preventative maintenance can cause more issues that it fixes.

The practice of repairing equipment only after it has failed to perform its intended function. (!It's Toast!)

Preventative Maintenance

Maintenance that is regularly performed on a piece of equipment to lessen the likelihood of it failing.

Predictive maintenance

This involves identifying trends that indicate a degradation curve, often referred to as the P-F Interval

Prescriptive maintenance

It does not just predict that a failure will happen; it "prescribes" the specific action required to mitigate or eliminate the problem

Use Digital Twins of systems to simulate maintenance impacts before they happen, ensuring that updates or hardware swaps don't cause unforeseen ripple effects.

Maintenance is performed based on the actual condition of the asset rather than on a pre-set schedule

Closed loop remediation

Instead of just sending an alert to a dashboard, AI agents now identify the root cause, draft a fix, and execute it

Zero ticket philosophy

The goal is to eliminate "bad tickets"—routine alerts that don't require human judgment.

The F point on the P to F curve

Functional failure of the device.

Maintenance

Question	Answer
Software updates are a form of preventative maintenance? True or False	True
The F point on the P-F curve means the item is still working perfectly?	False - F is the Failure point
If an IT team is always "fighting fires" (fixing things only after they break), where are they spending most of their time on the P-F Curve?	The Failure point.
You notice a server fan is making a loud grinding noise, but the server is still running fine. Is this point P or point F?	Point of failure
