From People and Processes, Inc.
Many companies that send people have more advanced maintenance programs in place. Based on industry type, PdM activities should be occurring on upwards of 95% of all rotating equipment in the facility, not just critical equipment. It is recommended that only 20-25% of equipment be covered by traditional time-based invasive PMs. I emphasize the word "invasive" and challenge it. In the Maintenance world, we get hung up on a PM being invasive. I offer that the majority of PMs should be inspections, not a rebuild or corrective action.
