The "Vicious Cycle" of Documentation
Documentation can have excessive impact on total CAPEX. Especially too much documentation.
Over time, asset data becomes unusable because documents become obsolete with too many cross references and inconsistencies.
And then the value of documentation decreases even more over time, while it adds on to asset life cycle costs.
The result is that documents make it very costly to engineer asset upgrades, improvements, maintenance or replacements.
