PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

The connected preventive maintenance software

Schedule PMs by time, cycle, or condition. Predict when they're really due and get AI insight into optimal maintenance schedules for every asset.

Features and functionalities

Next-level preventive maintenance

AI-powered insights into PM effectiveness.

Cycle-Based PM Estimated Due Dates

Schedule by what the machine actually needs, not just a date on the calendar

Trigger PMs by time, cycle count, or condition. For cycle-based PMs, the system learns a machine's real cycle rate from its history and projects a due date with a confidence score, instead of a fixed interval guess.

Preventive Maintenance maintenance planner

Develop a preventative maintenance program

To develop a preventative maintenance program that moves you from a reactive mindset to a proactive mindset, you need a system that enables the right data to be compiled in an easy-to-use format. It needs to be flexible, robust, and easy to understand while providing maximum flexibility for the demands of modern manufacturing environments.

Preventive Maintenance line stoppage

Know whether your PMs are actually preventing failures

Review machine breakdown history against completed PMs to see which checklist steps still matter and which ones stopped meaning anything years ago (like "check all 4,000 bolts"). AI-powered PM Effectiveness Analysis surfaces whether your program is actually working, not just whether tasks got checked off.

Operator Performed Maintenance

Standardize what works, instead of keeping it in one supervisor's head

Share and standardize PM steps across lines and sites while involving operators, too. Operator Performed Maintenance lets them run cleaning-and-inspection checklists and catch abnormalities before a full PM cycle is even needed.

1st - Close the execution gap

Record findings for history & analysis with the ability to trigger follow-up tasks

Track qualitative and quantitative values recorded during PM execution to trigger follow-up tasks while maintaining the history and integrity of the program. 

Suspend Resume functionality

Schedules that survive a shutdown

Suspend and resume schedules for planned downtime, like a holiday shutdown,
without losing the schedule or rebuilding it when you're back.

FEATURES

Preventive maintenance that works

PM software that collaborates with your team. Gain full control of everything past, current, and planned. 

PM Scheduler

Plan preventive maintenance by time, cycle count, or condition trigger, with instructions and checklists attached automatically.

Predictive PM Due Dates

For cycle-based PMs, project a due date from a machine's actual historical cycle rate, with a confidence score.

 

PM Effectiveness Analysis (AI)

Get an AI-generated analysis of whether your preventive maintenance program is actually reducing failures.

Real-Time PM Tracking

See on-time PM percentage on a live dashboard, refreshed continuously—not a report compiled after the fact.

Recording Values & Measurements

Record PM data: Table, Text, Dropdown List, Checkbox, Numeric, Date/Time, and Yes/No. Launch a Dispatch/Work Order for correction of out of tolerance/incorrect values. 

Operator-Led Inspection

Run operator-led inspection and cleaning checklists with the right checklist automatically attached to a launched PM dispatch based on the schedule's current interval.

Best Practice Standardization

Share and standardize PM steps across lines and sites instead of every plant rebuilding its own checklist.

Suspend & Resume Schedules

Pause a schedule for planned downtime, like a shutdown, and resume it without rebuilding it.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

FAQs about PM

Preventive maintenance (PM) is the practice of systematically inspecting, servicing, and maintaining assets on a regular schedule before something breaks or causes major headaches.

What is preventive maintenance software?

Preventive maintenance software schedules maintenance tasks by time, cycle count, or machine condition, so work happens on a planned basis instead of only reacting to breakdowns.

What's the difference between reactive, preventive, and predictive maintenance?

Reactive maintenance responds to a breakdown after it happens. Preventive maintenance is planned maintenance meant to prevent breakdowns before they occur. Predictive maintenance goes further, using data to predict when maintenance is actually needed based on real equipment condition, rather than a fixed schedule. Most plants need some combination of all three, not just one.

Can preventive maintenance software predict when a PM is actually due?

Yes. For cycle-based PMs, preventive maintenance software can calculate a machine's actual cycle rate from its history and project a due date with a confidence score, instead of relying on a fixed interval guess.

How do I know if my preventive maintenance program is actually working?

Some preventive maintenance software includes AI-driven analysis that evaluates whether your PM program is reducing failures, not just tracking whether tasks were completed on time. You can also review machine breakdown history against completed PMs directly to see which checklist steps are actually preventing failures, and cut the ones that aren't.

Does preventive maintenance software involve operators, not just technicians?

Yes. Preventive maintenance software can support Operator Performed Maintenance, where operators run inspection and cleaning checklists as the first line of defense ahead of a full PM cycle.

Can I pause a preventive maintenance schedule during a shutdown?

Yes. Preventive maintenance software can suspend a schedule for planned downtime and resume it afterward without needing to rebuild it.
