Failures

Logging failures and reading response time across the portfolio

Asset Failures

Every failure reported against an installation, and the figures that come out of them: how quickly an engineer got there, and how long the installation was down.

The failure record

FieldDescription
DateThe day the failure was logged
Report typeWhat kind of report it is, e.g. entrapment or breakdown
CauseWhat went wrong
DescriptionWhat the reporter described
Reported atWhen the report actually came in
ArrivalWhen an engineer got there
RepairedWhen it was working again

Date and Reported at are not the same thing. A failure reported at 23:40 and written up the next morning has two different moments, and response time is measured from the report, not the write-up. When Reported at is empty the date is used instead.

Status is derived, not set

A failure has no status field. It is read off the timestamps:

StatusMeaning
OpenNo engineer has arrived yet
In progressAn engineer arrived; not yet repaired
RepairedA repair time is recorded

Filling in Repaired is what closes a failure; there is no separate button.

The portfolio overview

Assetbeheer → Storingen lists every failure across every installation, most recent first, rather than one installation at a time. Each row names the installation it belongs to and links straight into its dashboard.

The figures above the list cover the whole portfolio and do not follow the filters:

FigureHow it is counted
Open failuresNot yet repaired, and how many of those trapped someone
Reports this yearFailures logged in the current calendar year
Average response timeMean time from report to arrival
Downtime this yearReport to repair, summed over this year's failures

Response time and downtime need the Reported at, Arrival and Repaired times. Failures that do not record them are left out of the averages rather than counted as zero, and the tile says so when nothing has been recorded at all.

Entrapments are recognised from the report type: any type containing "opsluiting" (or "entrapment") counts as one.
