Multi-year maintenance budget (MJOB)
A multi-year maintenance budget (MJOB) is a detailed financial plan that provides insight into the costs of maintenance work on buildings, sites, and installations over a more extended period. It aims to help organizations plan and budget for necessary maintenance to extend the lifespan and avoid unexpected costs.
Importance of a long-year maintenance budget
A well-drafted multi-year maintenance budget offers several advantages:
- Financial insight: it provides a clear overview of the expected maintenance costs, allowing owners to reserve budget in time;
- Efficiency: by scheduling maintenance work, it can be carried out at the most appropriate time, which minimizes failures of the primary business process;
- Prevention: regularly scheduled maintenance prevents major defects and extends the life of installations.
Components of an MJOB
A multi-year maintenance budget consists of various components that together provide a complete and reliable maintenance plan:
- Inventory: a detailed inspection of the object and its components to register defects and overdue maintenance;
- Prioritization: prioritizing maintenance work based on severity, financial consequences, and planning;
- Cost estimate: a calculation of the costs for the required maintenance, including materials, workforce, and any equipment rental;
- Planning: an overview of the planned work for the coming years, taking into account prioritization and available resources;
- Budgeting: an overview of the budgets required to carry out maintenance.
