About AM Fleet Integrity

Maintenance, Managed.

AM Fleet Integrity helps heavy-equipment owners take control of maintenance before small issues become expensive downtime.

I’m Grant Forsyth, a Canadian Red Seal Endorsed Heavy Duty Equipment Technician. I have spent my career working on complex industrial equipment in demanding environments—from Liebherr drill rigs and CAT iron to mobile hydraulic, electrical, and control systems.

I know what it takes to diagnose difficult faults, keep critical equipment operational, and make decisions when a machine is down and the clock is working against you.

But I have also seen the same pattern across fleets of every size: equipment does not always fail because a repair was impossible. It fails because warning signs were missed, service history was scattered, recurring defects were never connected, and maintenance decisions were made only after production had already stopped.

That is the Chaos Tax: the hidden cost of reactive maintenance.

It shows up as idle operators, delayed production, emergency call-outs, rushed parts freight, repeat repairs, missed deadlines, and avoidable pressure on your team. The mechanic’s invoice is often only a fraction of the actual cost.


A Field-Built Approach to Fleet Reliability

AM Fleet Integrity was created to help fleet owners, superintendents, and operations teams move away from run-to-failure maintenance and toward a more controlled, practical approach.

This is not generic consulting and it is not another layer of paperwork.

It is remote technical oversight built by a Red Seal technician who understands the physical reality of the iron, the pressure on site teams, and the operational cost of a machine sitting still.

Through a combination of technical experience, structured maintenance workflows, and AM FaultFlow, we help turn scattered fault codes, service records, inspection notes, and repair decisions into a clear plan of action.


Powered by AM FaultFlow

AM FaultFlow is our proprietary fault-triage workflow designed to organize and categorize active machine faults.

Instead of treating every dashboard light or error code as the same kind of emergency, we help your team understand:

  • What the fault may mean in practical terms
  • How urgent the issue is
  • What information should be gathered before repair decisions are made
  • Whether the machine can continue operating, requires planned attention, or should be taken out of service
  • What recurring failure patterns may be developing across the fleet

The goal is simple: give the people responsible for the equipment a better basis for making decisions before a manageable issue becomes a costly breakdown.


What You Get

AM Fleet Integrity provides practical technical support that fits alongside your existing operators, field mechanics, contractors, and repair providers.Depending on the engagement, your team receives:

  • Active fault-code and failure triage
    Clear technical context and practical next steps when an equipment warning, error code, or recurring defect appears.
  • Maintenance-priority planning
    A structured view of what needs attention first, so the loudest problem does not automatically become the only priority.
  • Review of diagnostics, repair scopes, and major quotations
    An experienced technical perspective before major work is approved—helping you ask better questions and make more informed decisions.
  • Recurring-defect and service-history visibility
    Better tracking of repeat issues, open defects, repairs, and machine condition so important patterns are not lost in texts, paperwork, or tribal knowledge.
  • Actionable maintenance workflows
    Simple systems your site team can realistically follow, designed to improve follow-through without creating unnecessary administrative burden.
  • Technical coordination support
    A bridge between field operations, mechanics, repair vendors, and management—so the right information reaches the right people before decisions are made.
  • A practical fleet-reliability roadmap
    Clear recommendations for moving priority equipment from reactive firefighting toward planned, predictable maintenance.


How We Work

Our work can begin with a Fleet Uptime Assessment: a focused review designed to identify where downtime, missed follow-through, and reactive repairs are costing your operation money.

From there, we can build an AM Fleet Reset—a practical maintenance operating system tailored to your equipment, records, and field reality.

For teams that need ongoing support, Maintenance. Managed. provides fractional fleet-management oversight: Red Seal technical confidence for major maintenance decisions without the cost and overhead of a full-time in-house reliability planner.


Built for the Real World

AM Fleet Integrity is based on a straightforward belief:


 Maintenance systems only work when the people on the ground can actually use them.

Your operators should be able to report a defect without fighting an unnecessary process. Your field mechanics should have useful history and priorities—not more paperwork. Your management team should be able to see what is happening across the fleet without waiting for the next breakdown to reveal it.

You have the equipment. Your team knows the job. AM Fleet Integrity provides the technical structure and oversight to help keep critical assets where they belong: working.
