Effective Practices Checklist
1) Management Expectations
A written policy and practices statement
Procedures documented and incorporated into training program
KPI identified, monitored and used to improve performance
A CMMS/EAMS is the primary maintenance planning and monitoring tool
2)
Assets
Life cycle plans based on cost, criticality and performance
Replacement decisions based on furture costs
Complete, accurate asset
inventory in hierarchical stucture
Assets identified with bar code/RFID
Routine condition
monitoring and inspection used for maintenance scheduling
Asset operational status available in real time
Failure
analysis results used to improve performance
Complete cost history captured and used in replacement/rehabilitation decisions
3) Work Orders
Asset are primary work order objects
Work is planned and
scheduled for each crew weekly
All parts, tools and contract service planned
Technicians report all labor and costs on each work order
Technicians report fault-cause-solution
on all corrective work
4) Predictive & Preventive Maintenance
Assets selected on cost, criticality and operational effectiveness basis
PdM & PM
have a high priority and interrupted only for emergencies
All PM plans contain detailed job or task
plans
PdM/PM program results are reviewed routinely
5)
Engineering Support
Conduct PM program
review and recommend improvements
Design improvements to reduce operating costs or eliminate “nuisance” faults
Review fault
patterns to improve procedures or design
Determine causes and remedies for failures resulting in injury, regulatory violations or process interruptions
6)
Inventory and Warehouse
Warehouse is a "force multiplier" for maintenance
Preprepared parts kits for
planned work
All parts
issued to work orders or to equipment
Parts automatically linked to equipment
Just in time ordering and delivery through effective vendor relationships
Stock levels at minimum while preventing work delay due to stock outs
Asset spares
handling through warehouse
Control, counts and
security
7)
Contract Services
Investigate contracting
opportunities to reduce cost or improve outcomes
Use outcome based contract
specifications
Contract costs applied to assets
Routine inspection and outcome based
measurement
8)
Reporting, Analysis and

Formal managerment reviews annually
Key
performance indicators for each level of organization
