+**Module:** Maintenance
+
+Preventive maintenance schedules and equipment monitoring keep critical assets operational and prevent disruptive downtime.
+
+## Copy
+
+Downtime is the most expensive problem in operations. Every hour of equipment failure costs more than the repair. Production stops. Orders get delayed. Customers get notified. Staff stands idle. Emergency repairs get scheduled at premium prices. The cascade of costs from downtime exceeds the immediate repair bill by multiples that most businesses dramatically underestimate.
+
+This module prevents downtime before it happens. Preventive maintenance schedules keep equipment serviced before failures occur. Equipment monitoring surfaces warning signs before they become breakdowns. Critical assets stay operational because they're maintained, not because they're lucky. The result is operations that run smoothly, not operations that wait for something to break.
+
+For copywriters: Focus on the cascade cost—how downtime costs multiply beyond the immediate repair. Position prevention as the mechanism that stops the cascade. The audience should recognize their own downtime costs and how much prevention could have saved.
