Annual Maintenance Expenditure (AME)
Definition
This indicator, measured in $US per sq-m built, expresses the amount of resources spent on maintenance during a fiscal year, and combines expenditures on in-house personnel, outsourcing, and materials and spare parts.
Use Case / Interpretation
This indicator may be used to compare the expenditures in a facility from one year to another, as well as to compare maintenance expenditures between different facilities. Therefore, breaking the AME into its sources of labor may provide significant information to decision-makers, as well as encourage effective labor distribution decisions.
