Does a supplier's maintenance schedule affect how often breakdowns happen?

Yes, a well-maintained fleet with a strong service record generally experiences fewer unexpected failures. Older or poorly maintained equipment is statistically more likely to fail mid-project. Sparkline Group maintains its fleet on a regular servicing schedule specifically to minimize this risk. Asking a supplier about their maintenance practices is a useful way to gauge reliability. Choosing equipment with a strong service history reduces breakdown risk from the outset.
