This document provides information on preventive maintenance and steps to improve a preventive maintenance program. It begins with a definition of preventive maintenance as actions taken on a scheduled basis to detect and mitigate system degradation. It then announces a workshop on preventive maintenance fundamentals. The fundamentals discussed are focusing preventive maintenance procedures on specific failure modes and including instructions, specifications, and space for recording condition findings and recommendations. It recommends including failure history when assigning work orders and investigating root causes for critical failures between maintenance cycles. Finally, it outlines six steps to take if preventive maintenance is not meeting expectations, starting with acknowledging the problem and creating an optimization team.
