The preventive maintenance module begins with compiling all of the asset data into STABLE.  Then each equipment asset is assigned a schedule based on industry standards to check the equipment and evaluate its performance.  The frequency is often monthly, quarterly, or annual and this process is performed in a partnership between the ¾«¶«´«Ã½ Maintenance and Grounds Department as well as our partner, Siemens.  Checking the equipment proactively allows Facilities to detect subtle changes in performance or appearance that could indicate future failure.  With early detection emergencies become repairs, money is saved, and building performance is maintained.

These preventive maintenance tasks are folded into the field technicians’ daily tasks in addition to the work they do on tickets submitted from the campus community.  STABLE will offer us the opportunity to begin reporting not only on the tickets submitted by the campus community but the preventive maintenance tickets as well. It will also help us plan and schedule these maintenance activities more programmatically so that critical maintenance is not overlooked.
