Key Features and Benefits of TabWare Preventive Maintenance

A Preventive Maintenance (PM) system is critical to effective asset management. From inspection tasks designed to detect impending failures to lubrication and wear part replacement, your PM system is the first line of defense against unplanned downtime and equipment failures.

Aptean EAM TabWare Edition provides a single platform to easily plan, organize and manage all your PM work including building PM Master Plans, linking them to equipment and scheduling PM work order generation. Aptean EAM provides a comprehensive audit trail of all PM work and reports schedule compliance.

Benefits

• Maximized asset performance and reduced unplanned downtime

• Increased throughput and line efficiency

• Improved Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)

• Automatic PM work order generation with lead time for scheduling

• Quickly identify all affected equipment for each PM master plan

• Improved management command and control

We recommend your PM system be based on a Reliability Centered Maintenance (RCM) program to define the necessary tasks and schedule their execution to maximize asset performance. A preventive maintenance system is an integral part of a maintenance management solution and maximizes asset performance. An effective preventive maintenance system also supports predictive maintenance by planning and scheduling their tasks as PM work orders.
