Preventive Maintenance

Service Planning & Concepts allows you to use Preventive Maintenance (PM) for assets. These assets can belong to the customers or could be your own internal assets. The planned activities can be covered by service contracts and could be agreed upon with the customers and, therefore, must be automatically controlled by the service order system.

  • Preventive maintenance scenario

    Preventive maintenance scenarios are used as the basis to generate planned activities. A maintenance scenario has scenario lines based on which planned activities can be generated, based on time and usage, according to a predefined pattern.

  • The rule book is the book that contains rules that define which maintenance scenarios must be used when a maintenance plan is generated.

  • You can plan maintenance activity for the installation group and serialized item that the service organization manages. The maintenance planning provides the maintenance activities that must be carried out in the long term. A maintenance plan can be generated only if a maintenance scenario is defined for the serialized item.

  • Planned activities are the fixed moments on which preventive maintenance, by means of planned activities, must be carried out on serialized items/installation groups. Service maintenance planning shows the demand of service activities in the long term and can be used as input for the service order procedure. Maintenance planning can be generated from the maintenance concept.

  • You can create planned activities and transfer the planned activities to service orders.
