Computerized Maintenance Management System - Work Orders

Work Orders

Scheduling jobs, assigning personnel, reserving materials, recording costs, and tracking relevant information such as the cause of the problem (if any), downtime involved (if any), and recommendations for future action. Typically, the CMMS schedules preventive maintenance automatically based on maintenance plans and/or meter readings. Different software packages use different techniques for reporting when a job should be performed.

  • Inspection
Details condition of assets.
  • Preventive maintenance
Keeping track of preventive maintenance jobs, including step-by-step instructions or check-lists, lists of materials required, and other pertinent details.
  • Machine breakdown
Incidence of machine breakdown, details of repairs completed and repairs "to do". Preventive maintenance tasks are often undertaken during breakdown repair and so preventive maintenance tasks need to be rescheduled.

Famous quotes related to work orders:

    However diligent she may be, however dedicated, no mother can escape the larger influences of culture, biology, fate . . . until we can actually live in a society where mothers and children genuinely matter, ours is an essentially powerless responsibility. Mothers carry out most of the work orders, but most of the rules governing our lives are shaped by outside influences.
    Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
