Not that I've had much luck with this, but I have tried to explain to customers/managers that the work is like to do is preventative.

Sure it's "expensive" now, but this reduces potential failures AND reduces maintenance time in the future.

This means we spend $ now, but save $$ later ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Unfortunately there's never time to do it right and always time to do it twice

Ounce of prevention is worth a pound of the cure
