What this calculator does
- Estimate predictive maintenance payback from program cost and avoided downtime.
- Use it when predictive maintenance roi in oee and factory performance is being compared against another oee and factory performance project for the same budget.
- Turns investment, annual savings, annual support cost into a payback period for predictive maintenance roi in oee and factory performance.
Formula used
- Payback = investment รท net annual savings
Inputs explained
- Investment: undefined
- Annual savings: undefined

How to use the result
- Use it when ranking competing projects against the same budget.
- Ramp time, training cost, and process change risk are not in the formula; they often add 20 to 40 percent in year one.
Common questions
- What does the predictive maintenance roi calculator give me? Estimate predictive maintenance payback from program cost and avoided downtime. You get a payback period you can defend before quoting, scheduling, or sign-off.
- Which assumptions drive the payback period? investment, annual savings, annual support cost usually move the payback period most. Pull from measured oee and factory performance runs, supplier data, and recent quotes rather than memory.
- What do I do with this number? Use the payback period plus the five year net to argue the oee and factory performance business case on its own merits.
- What should I double-check before acting? Validate the savings number against a baseline measurement, not a vendor estimate; vendor numbers run high.
