Downtime has a price tag
Every minute a line is down is lost product and lost margin. You can’t afford maintenance that overruns its window, and you can’t afford a failure that stops the line with no warning either.

Shift-Aware Scheduling
The Reality On Site
What facilities managers in manufacturing deal with.
On a plant floor, electrical work competes directly with output. That tension shapes every decision you make.
Work has to fit between shifts
Your maintenance window is whatever gap the production schedule allows, and it’s never long enough. Preventative work has to be planned tight, staged in advance, and done inside the outage you were given.
Production workers are near live gear
When maintenance happens with people still on the floor, arc flash risk isn’t theoretical. You need known incident energy levels, proper boundaries, and labeling so nobody guesses about PPE near an MCC.
Standards & Compliance
The standards that keep the line running and the auditor satisfied.
Manufacturing electrical compliance protects both uptime and your insurance relationship. We work to the standards your risk carrier and your safety program expect.
NFPA 70E
Arc flash boundaries, incident energy, and PPE requirements for work near live production equipment.
NFPA 70B
Recommended practice for electrical equipment maintenance, the basis of a defensible PM program.
NFPA 70 (NEC)
National Electrical Code compliance across distribution, motor circuits, and controls.
NETA Maintenance Testing
Test standards that prove switchgear, transformers, and breakers will perform under load.
IEEE 1584
Incident energy analysis for every point on your one-line.
OSHA 1910 Subpart S
Electrical safety requirements for the general industry workplace.
How We Help
How BASS MCS serves manufacturing.
Planned outage maintenance
We build a preventative maintenance scope that fits your outage window and stage it in advance, so the crew is working the moment the line goes down and off it before you restart.
MCC and motor control work
Motor control centers, starters, drives, and overloads inspected, tested, and repaired by a crew that knows how a plant actually runs, not just how the print reads.
Arc flash analysis and labeling
IEEE 1584 incident energy studies and NFPA 70E labels so maintenance can happen safely with production staff nearby and everyone knows the boundary before they cross it.
Documentation for insurers and auditors
Written condition reports, test records, and photo documentation formatted for the property insurer and auditor who wants proof your electrical maintenance is real.
