Set a PM schedule against every asset — by calendar frequency or by meter reading — and let the system raise the work for you. Due services land on a maintenance calendar as PM tasks, each run against a checklist, gated by a safety work permit where the job is hazardous, and closed into the maintenance history with photos. Servicing on time is what lifts MTBF and keeps machines available.
A PM is planned against a real asset, raised automatically when it comes due, cleared through a work permit if needed, completed against a checklist and recorded in history. Nothing depends on someone remembering — see the difference between breakdown and preventive maintenance in our CMMS guide.
Every asset gets its own preventive schedule. Time-based PM runs on a frequency you set — daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly — while meter-based PM triggers on running hours, cycles or production count, so a machine that runs hard is serviced sooner than one that sits idle. Each schedule carries the service purpose and the checklist to follow, so "what does this PM involve?" is defined once, against the asset in the register, not reinvented every month.
When a schedule comes due, the system auto-generates a PM-due task and drops it onto the maintenance calendar — so planned work appears without anyone chasing it. A supervisor reads the week or month across every asset at a glance, spots clashes, and plans PM around production. Due, completed and overdue PMs sit together in one view, and WhatsApp, email or SMS reminders make sure a due PM is never a surprise.
A PM checklist is the standard list of tasks for that service — inspect, clean, lubricate, replace, measure — and the technician completes and signs off each item, so every service is done the same way regardless of who does it. Where a job is hazardous, a safety work-permit checklist clears the work first: isolation confirmed, hot-work or height precautions ticked, permit approved. Both are recorded against the planned maintenance work order for an auditable trail.
Every completed PM updates the asset's maintenance history — what was done, by whom, with photos — so preventive work and breakdowns share one record against the machine. That's what turns "we should do PM" into evidence: as scheduled servicing goes up, unplanned breakdowns come down, MTBF rises and availability improves. The dashboards show whether more preventive care is actually cutting downtime, asset by asset, so PM is a decision you can defend.
Schedule preventive maintenance per asset on a daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly cycle — the calendar does the remembering.
Trigger PM on running hours, cycles or production count, so heavily used assets are serviced sooner than idle ones.
When a schedule matures, a PM-due task is generated automatically and placed on the maintenance calendar — no manual raising.
A shared calendar of scheduled, due and overdue PM across every asset, so the week of planned work is visible at a glance.
Standard task checklists per service — inspect, clean, lubricate, replace, measure — signed off item by item on the work order.
Work-permit checklists clear hazardous jobs — isolation, hot work, height — before maintenance starts, and stay on the record.
Every PM runs as a planned maintenance work order with its checklist, permit and spares, closed into the maintenance history.
Completed PMs update the asset's maintenance history with photos, building a full service record beside the breakdown history.
Servicing on schedule reduces breakdowns, so MTBF and availability rise — and the dashboards prove the effect machine by machine.
Waiting for a machine to fail is the most expensive maintenance strategy there is. Here is what preventive scheduling changes.
You set a PM schedule against each asset — by calendar frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly) or by meter reading such as running hours or production count. As a schedule comes due, the system auto-generates a PM-due task and places it on the maintenance calendar, so planned maintenance is raised on time instead of relying on someone remembering. Each PM runs against a checklist and updates the asset's maintenance history.
Yes. A schedule can be time-based or meter-based. Meter-based PM triggers on running hours, cycles or production count captured against the machine, so an asset that runs hard is serviced sooner than one that sits idle. Time-based PM triggers on the calendar. Both raise a PM-due task automatically when the interval is reached.
A PM checklist is the standard list of tasks a technician completes and signs off for that service — inspect, clean, lubricate, replace, measure. A safety work-permit checklist is the pre-work clearance for hazardous jobs such as hot work, height or electrical isolation, confirming isolation and safety steps before work starts. Both are recorded against the planned maintenance work order for an auditable trail.
Yes. Every scheduled and due PM appears on a maintenance calendar, so a supervisor sees the week or month of planned work across all assets at a glance, spots clashes, and plans around production. Completed, due and overdue PMs are visible together rather than scattered across notebooks.
By servicing assets on schedule — before they fail — preventive maintenance reduces unplanned breakdowns, so the mean time between failures (MTBF) rises and availability improves. Because both PM completion and breakdowns are recorded against the same assets, the dashboards show whether more preventive care is actually cutting downtime, machine by machine.
