A eMaint Case Study
Pratt & Whitney, a leader in aircraft engine design and manufacturing, needed to maximize equipment uptime, manage spare parts inventory, and develop a more effective maintenance program. Their legacy system caused 12–24 hour delays for corrective work orders, lacked work-priority controls, and made Daily Walk Arounds and preventive maintenance difficult to execute consistently.
By implementing eMaint CMMS—with onsite consultant support, eMaint University training, three daily DWAs, prioritized work orders, and A/B/C parts criticality—Pratt & Whitney improved parts availability, shortened lead times, and gained visibility into failure intervals. The program saved $100,000 on a single project by having the right parts on hand and avoiding roughly three months of downtime, delivered best-in-class PM closeout performance, and enabled root-cause analysis and optimized maintenance schedules.
