Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) is the performance of regular and ongoing scheduled maintenance on an asset, such as plant or equipment or your property. PPM is carried out to maintain the value of your property or asset, by regularly servicing and ensuring full working order.

There are some great benefits to having Planned Preventative Maintenance in place. If you own or manage a commercial or industrial property, you should really consider PPM. Here are some reasons why:

Lengthen The Lifespan of Property and Assets

Keeping your equipment and property in good condition can keep them running for longer. Improved efficiency of machinery and equipment can also aid in decreasing costs for the business. As well as helping in the reduction of running costs, it may also reduce additional costs of purchasing new replacement equipment. Good quality assets don’t come cheap, and it’s important for a business to maximise their longevity.

Improvements In Workplace Safety

When equipment isn’t performing properly, or there’s damage to property; efficiency isn’t the only thing at risk. With problems like these, the workplace can become more susceptible to injuries and accidents.

Safety in the workplace is an important consideration for every business. PPM can spot areas that may be at risk of damage, or machinery in need of repair, before they become a more serious problem. This could also aid in boosting your employee’s confidence, knowing that the businesses assets are well looked after and regularly maintained.

Keep The Business Operational

Ongoing and regular upkeep can help mitigate against breakdowns and loss of productivity during equipment downtime.  Issues may be spotted early, before they interfere with the business’s daily routine. A small repair, identified and fixed through PPM, can save on the downtime and expense caused by much larger forced repairs.

Schedule Your Maintenance

You should plan your preventive maintenance precisely to suit your workflow. You should aim for your business to be unaffected and for people and production to be uninterrupted.
