Preventive Maintenance Explained

Preventive maintenance is carried out with the goal of increasing asset lifetime by preventing excess depreciation and impairment, or untimely breakdown. This maintenance can include adjustments, cleaning, lubrication, repairs, and parts replacements. Due to the unique needs of different assets, the type and amount of preventive maintenance required varies. Because of this, it can be challenging to establish a successful preventive maintenance program. However, a good rule of thumb is to start with a time-based PM program. ------------------------------------------ UpKeep's Asset Operations Management Platform is a mobile-first CMMS, EAM & IIoT suite of solutions proven to streamline the work order process and take you from reactive to preventive maintenance.
