Request an installation readiness assessmentHow the calculation works
The checklist has 19 questions in five weighted categories: electrical supply (25%), compressed air and gases (20%), water and cooling (20%), ventilation and climate (15%), and building and IT readiness (20%). Questions are rated 0–4 and the result is a weighted average of 0–100. Below 40 means “not ready”, 80 and above “fully ready”.
Example: if only electrical supply (25%) and compressed air (20%) are fully in order and the rest are missing, the result is 45/100.
Frequently asked questions
Why check utilities separately?
Missing capacity, compressed air or cooling often comes to light only during installation and causes costly delays.
Who should collect the data?
The technical manager or building administrator together with the machine supplier’s requirements.
Is it also suitable for a new building?
Yes, the checklist also helps assess the readiness of a new production building or an extension.

Methodology and limitations
Methodology based on standard industry calculations and Maintest’s practical industrial experience. This tool provides a planning estimate and does not replace project-specific engineering assessment. This tool is a screening and planning aid developed by Maintest. Results are indicative and depend entirely on the figures and answers you enter. They are not an engineering calculation, a safety assessment or a substitute for the manufacturer’s instructions, applicable standards or professional judgement. Weights, benchmarks and default values are Maintest planning assumptions and can be adjusted to your situation. Do not use this tool as the only basis for safety-critical decisions such as lifting, electrical work or lockout procedures.
