Preventive Maintenance

Sound familiar?

• "It was working fine yesterday. Why is it broken now?"
• "We haven't greased that bearing in... I don't remember how long."
• "Another emergency repair on the same machine?"

Breakdowns happen when maintenance is reactive, not proactive.

The Problem

Preventive maintenance gets pushed aside when production is busy. Tasks slip through the cracks. No one knows what's due, what's overdue, or who's supposed to do it. Then the machine breaks at 2 AM, and you're paying triple for emergency repairs.

What OpexMX Preventive Maintenance Does

Plans, schedules, and tracks recurring maintenance so small problems don't become big emergencies.

See What's Coming

Calendar view shows upcoming tasks for the day, week, or month. No surprises.

Track Compliance in Real Time

Dashboard shows:

• Scheduled This Week - How many tasks, how many done, how many overdue
• Completion Rate - Are you hitting your targets? Trend over time
• Overdue Critical - Assets that need supervisor attention now
• Avg Interval - How often you're actually doing maintenance

Know Which Lines Are at Risk

Compliance tracking by production line shows where you're falling behind.

How It Works

1. Define the plan - Create task lists for each asset (what to do, how often)
2. Set the schedule - Calendar-based or runtime-based triggers
3. Generate work orders - Tickets auto-create based on your schedule
4. Track execution - Technicians complete tasks with checklists and notes
5. Analyze results - See what's working and adjust accordingly

Real Example

Before OpexMX:

• PM tasks on a spreadsheet that no one looks at
• "We'll get to it when we have time"
• Same motor fails every 3 months
• No idea what tasks were actually done

After OpexMX:

• Clear calendar of what's due and when
• Completion rate tracked and visible
• Identified pattern: bearing fails at 4 months, so PM at 3 months
• Full audit trail of what was done and when

Who Uses This?

Integrations

• Tickets: Auto-generate work orders from PM plans
• Assets: Link tasks to specific equipment
• Parts: Reserve required parts in advance
• Checklists: Attach step-by-step procedures
• Teams: Match tasks to skills and availability

Task Status Workflow

Pro Tips

• Start with the critical 20% - The assets causing 80% of your downtime
• Keep checklists short - Link to detailed docs, don't rewrite them
• Track findings - Even "nothing abnormal" is valuable data
• Review monthly - Retire obsolete tasks, adjust frequencies
• Use runtime triggers - More accurate than calendar for high-use equipment
