Preventative Maintenance Program and Procedures

Preventative Maintenance Program and Procedures

Creating a preventative maintenance program, backed by clear procedures, is vital because it keeps equipment and systems running reliably, reducing the risk of unexpected failures that can halt operations and inflate costs. By scheduling regular checks, like inspecting a motor’s bearings or replacing a filter before it clogs, we address wear and tear proactively, extending asset life and maintaining performance.  This program should be built ground up from the component level, what does each component require, maintenance-wise.  Once this is in place, then you create the overarching system level maintenance tasks.  Some may find this daunting, but this can be done in a very efficient manner.

Detailed procedures ensure consistency, spelling out tasks, intervals, and standards, so nothing is left to chance—think “lubricate pump every 500 hours” with step-by-step guidance.  This approach works in conjunction with the performance monitoring program, cutting downtime, boosting safety, and saving money, turning maintenance into a strategic advantage rather than a reactive scramble.  Let us help you get this program in place and automated.
