The maintenance history starts from the identity of the asset. If the same machine appears under different names, comparing faults, spare parts and interventions becomes difficult even when the records are complete.
Structure of the systems
- Agree on the structure of the plant, line, group and machine.
- Use unique codes and descriptions according to company conventions.
- Associate each item with the correct hierarchical level.
- Check that the hierarchy is usable for filters, reports and cost centers.
Machine registry
- Check that the machine code is not already used.
- Fill in the description, location, classification and required data.
- Associate cost center and groupings according to business rules.
- Re-read the saved data and check that the machine can be found in search.
Putting this into practice
Choose a rule for codes and descriptions, then verify belonging to the system before creating a new card. A coherent structure also makes subsequent analyzes more readable.
