• 4MB ADSL broadband internet connection

I propose for the client support mechanism

• Preventive maintenance—the prevention of equipment breakdowns before they

happen. This includes inspections, adjustments, regular service and planned
shutdowns.
• Repair work—repairing equipment and troubleshooting malfunctions in an effort
to return the equipment to its previous condition. These repairs may be reactive
or preventive.
• Improvement work—searching for better materials and improved design changes
to facilitate equipment reliability. Repair work is often a part of improvement
work.
