Maintenance Schedules and Documentation

Complete,thorough,and current documentation is essential to an effective maintenance program.Whether you are performing preventive,predictive,or reliability centred maintenance,keeping track of equipment condition and maintenance performed or planned is critical.
Maintenance recommendations contained in this report should be used as the basis for establishing or refining a maintenance schedule.Recommendations can be converted into job plans or work orders in MAXIMO or another maintenance management system.Once these job plans and work orders are established,implementation of well executed predictive or RCM is possible.
The maintenance recordkeeping system must be kept current so that a complete maintenance history of each piece of equipment is available at all times.This is important for planning and conducting an ongoing maintenance program and provides documentation needed for the power O and M reviews.Regular maintenance and emergency maintenance must well be documented,as should special work done during overhauls and replacement.
