When a challenge arises due to lubrication degradation, the main focus is applied to solving the issue. Many times, this focus is placed on the physical roots or the things we can physically change. Once these physical roots are “solved”, we often realize that the underlying degradation issue appears again. Therefore, it is necessary to examine the real root causes and dive a bit deeper. Typically, most challenges have three types of roots, physical, human, and latent or systemic.
