Keeps production assets available — ranking equipment by consequence of failure, setting preventive and predictive intervals, sizing spares, and moving a plant off reactive maintenance. Use this to build or fix a maintenance program, decide what to put on a PM schedule, diagnose repeat failures on one asset, justify spares inventory, or work out why a plant that maintains everything still has unplanned downtime.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Maintenance and reliability

A plant that maintains everything equally maintains the wrong things. Maintenance effort is finite,
and spending it evenly across assets means the machine whose failure stops the line gets the same
attention as the one with three spares in the cabinet.

## Rank by consequence, not by age or cost

The question is not how likely a machine is to fail. It is what happens when it does.

Rank every asset on what its failure costs: production stopped, product scrapped, a safety event, a
regulatory exposure, or nothing anyone notices before the next shift. That ranking, not the capital
value, decides where preventive effort goes.

Two things this exposes immediately in most plants:

- **Assets with no redundancy and no spare** — the ones that will stop the plant and keep it stopped
  while a part ships. These are the whole list worth arguing about.
- **Assets on a PM schedule for no reason** — inherited from a manual, consuming hours, preventing
  nothing that would have mattered.

## Not everything wears out

The intuition behind interval-based maintenance is that failure probability rises with age, so

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cbrock84/headcount/maintenance-and-reliability@sha256:686719c2a1119cd4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.bc432c0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
