Key Aspects of Preventive Maintenance Services

  • Proactive Scheduling: Performed regularly (e.g., daily, monthly, or based on cycles) rather than after a breakdown.

  • Core Activities: Inspection, cleaning, lubricating, repairing, and replacing components.

  • Strategies: Includes Time-based (TBM), Usage-based (UBM), and Condition-based (CBM) maintenance.

  • Documentation: Involves keeping meticulous records of past services and inspections.

  • Tools: Often uses Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) software to track, schedule, and assign tasks.
