Preventive Maintenance Programs

When building a system for allocation of maintenance spending consider the benefits of a VT Asset Management Software Platform Vs reacting to requests logged using a CMMS, workorder or contractor solutions for preventive maintenance services.

VTPro™ is a commercially available preventive maintenance solution that provides additional system information to perform preventive VT management services.

The disciplined data standards provided options for building advanced defect and preventive VT analytics and comparative repair performance tracking.

For the Individual VT asset areas, use a program will provide quick references to system summary, installation, VT details and warranty data for maintaining individual VT equipment:

• VT Equipment Summary
• VT System Construction
• Architectural Details
• Defects
• Warranties

Summary

The VT information summary area will include the installation year, size in (square feet) a CSI description of the VT type with the corresponding description and master format number from the VT type group.

In the VT system construction, list the VT system components and method of installation, service notes.

In VT system details list a description of the primary component details, attachments, components, power and controls per VT equipment.

The VT defect area should support entering observed defects for each VT area. The defect descriptions should apply to each unique VT system as to provide the district the ability to track defects rates by each VT type.

The inspections/VT observations can be documented with the dates the inspections occurred and the name of the observer. The program provides the option to track entered defects to the observer and date of observation.

VT recommendations have an editable description for capital and expense repairs with a budget year. Recommendations can be tracked from recommended through completion. At completion the software will automatically transfer the record to work history.

The software provides an option to link defects as closed with the completion and transfer closed defects to work history. Work history will have a documented program area to list all work completed on the VT section. Closed defects can be observed and any as built documents, punch lists and drawings can be attached.

Warranties will be managed in the software for each VT section. The warranty will be described by VT equipment area, issue date, VT type, or component type(s). Issue date, expiry date, warranty number, issued by and contact information. The program will provide the option to attach the warranty documents including any compliance requirement.
