When critical equipment fails unexpectedly, downtime can cost more than wasted hours. It affects profitability, reputation, and risk management. Across industries, unplanned downtime typically consumes 5% to 20% of productive capacity and costs manufacturers as much as $260,000 per hour on average (UpKeep).
In high-stakes sectors like automotive, losses can reach up to $2.3 million per hour, or more than $600 per second (Siemens).
This is where KPIC delivers real value. We offer true 24/7 emergency maintenance response. No call centers or third-party intermediaries. Clients connect directly with trained mechanical trades, welders, and project leads who can assess, mobilize, and resolve the issue. Our crews are supported by in-house fabrication capabilities and a deep understanding of industrial systems under pressure.
What sets KPIC apart is the consistency of standards. Emergency jobs are completed with the same level of QA/QC oversight, documentation, and safety compliance as our planned maintenance and retrofit work. There are no shortcuts when it comes to system integrity.
According to industry benchmarks, leading organizations aim for at least 85% Planned Maintenance Percentage (PMP) and 90% preventive maintenance compliance (ISM World, MaintainX).
Still, downtime happens. Research shows many facilities face up to 20 unplanned incidents per month (WorkTrek, FourJaw, Infraspeak).
In these moments, KPIC’s emergency maintenance service gives clients an operational advantage. When time is tight and production is at risk, we deliver more than speed. We deliver certainty.
