    Ask the Expert: Why is it important to have a Battery Management Program (BMP)?

    Aug. 7, 2017
    A maintenance program lasting the life of the battery can mitigate premature failure and prevent issues down the road.

    Q: Why is it important to have a Battery Management Program (BMP)?

    A: The key to a quality maintenance program is a good diagnostic, preventative maintenance and corrective service program that encompasses the life of a battery. The diagnostics portion tests the battery in order to understand its condition. The preventive maintenance helps prevent or mitigate premature battery failure and the corrective maintenance reverses or corrects an issue that has already occurred. Encompassing all three elements into a BMP ensures optimal vehicle electrical system performance, lowers battery related maintenance costs, eliminates jump starts, extends battery life, adheres to environmental goals and reduces the number of new batteries purchased.
