Kokonaisylläpidossa

Kokonaisylläpidossa refers to an integrated approach to maintenance in which all upkeep activities for an asset or system are managed under a single, coordinated framework. The objective is to ensure reliability, safety, and lifecycle cost efficiency through comprehensive planning, execution, and monitoring of preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance.

The concept is commonly applied to buildings, industrial plants, infrastructure networks, and critical IT or energy systems. In practice, kokonaisylläpidossa often involves outsourcing maintenance to a single contractor or adopting an integrated facilities management arrangement. The arrangement is typically governed by a service-level agreement that covers maintenance tasks, spare parts, energy management, and often minor renovations, with data-driven tools such as computerised maintenance management systems (CMMS) or enterprise asset management (EAM) systems to support planning and performance measurement.

Key elements include a single point of responsibility, lifecycle cost analysis, preventive and predictive maintenance, condition monitoring, spare parts management, and clear performance metrics. Governance structures emphasize transparency, accountability, and continuous improvement, while contracts may be performance-based to align incentives with asset availability and reliability.

Benefits of kokonaisylläpidossa include simplified management, predictable costs, improved asset uptime, better risk control, and streamlined procurement. Challenges can involve dependence on a single supplier, transition and scoping complexities, and the need for robust data quality and governance to sustain gains over time.
