Russian term or phrase: было обеспечено безаварийное функционирование
Hello

I am not sure how to express this. Is it OK to say: 'all technological production equipment was ensured to be running faultlessly'?

For this section of text:

'В 2006 году было обеспечено безаварийное ункционирование всего технологического производственного оборудования.'

Thanks
