Opportunistic maintenance is a preventive maintenance that depends upon occurrence of equipment failure to take advantage of corrective maintenance opportunities.
Where PSIs are detected learning needs, necessary corrective changes and opportunities for improvement are identified and actioned when judged appropriate.
The opening of Met Breuer is a highly publicized corrective, but also an opportunity to stage exhibitions that could not be mounted by any other institution, given the extraordinary breadth and quality of works that make up the museum's encyclopedic holdings.
The aim of the project was to understand the failure modes associated with medication use in hospitalised children through a proactive risk analysis (FMEA); the multidisciplinary teams identified, analysed and prioritised failure modes by calculating RPNs and introduced corrective actions as an opportunity to improve patient safety.
Unlike aggregate methods where poor runs can be compensated for and hidden by the existence of excellent results from elsewhere, the serial and continuous nature of data inspection allows the CUSUM to detect both good and bad runs separately as they occur, providing an opportunity for corrective action.
At that point, while the child's bones are still growing, there is a narrow window of opportunity to take corrective action with bracing that may eliminate the need for surgery.

Furthermore, evaluation of the CPOE enabled us to identify newly introduced problems, and gave us the opportunity to take corrective actions.
Gene therapy has basked in the fringes of this glow because once disease-causing genes are found, there will be more opportunities to inject corrective genes into people as therapy.
Based on this example, future work on EGE should investigate empirically validated strategies and techniques, provide manuals with skill areas and menus of games, clearly defined goals and incentives, and experiential learning that provides opportunities for receiving corrective feedback.
