IMplementation IN MAINtmaster

In MaintMaster, job categories and completion codes are customised according to standard EN 13306. This enables easy monitoring and value-adding decision-making.

MAINTENANCE ACCORDING TO EUROPEAN STANDARD

In order to make correct analyses, it is necessary that the staff reports in the same way and that they understand what the different definitions mean in the maintenance system. MaintMaster CMMS is adapted to the EN 13306 Terminology for maintenance, where it is clear what the different terms mean. The following pages show different terms and concepts in the standard with an explanatory text, and how this is implemented in MaintMaster.

Job categories, completion code groups and completion codes in MaintMaster Based on standard EN 13306

Completion code groups: Corrective maintenance

Completion code group: Immediate corrective maintenance

Maintenance performed immediately after a defect has
been detected in order to avoid unacceptable consequences.

The machine is down, fix now! Downtime must always be specified before completion with this completion code group.

Completion code group: Deferred corrective maintenance

Corrective maintenance that is not carried out immediately after the detection of a malfunction but is deferred in accordance with the given maintenance directives.

The machine works, but not very well. The job can be scheduled for a later date.

Always strive to move actions from unplanned to planned maintenance activities. Initially, this is the fastest way to achieve higher reliability and more efficient maintenance work.

Completion codes for completion code group: Immediate and deferred corrective maintenance.

The following completion codes are used in this example to indicate the reason why an error has occurred.

Insufficient maintenance
Defects arising from improper or unperformed maintenance.

Handling
Errors resulting from improper handling of equipment or machinery.

Wear out failure
Faults whose probability of occurrence increases with the operating time or the number of completed work cycles or the load to which a unit is subjected.

Ageing failure
Faults whose probability of occurrence increases with time. This time is independent of the operating time of the unit.

Failure mechanism
Physical, chemical or other process that leads to, or has led to failure. e.g. design failure, incorrect choice of materials or method failure.

Secondary failure
Failure of a unit directly or indirectly caused by the failure
of another unit, e.g. power failure, loss of compressed air, etc.

Production support
Used for reporting support services to production that are not directly maintenance related, such as assistance with changeover or machine start-up.

No fault detected
Completion code for those occasions when no fault can be found. Can be used, for example, when a "loose contact" is suspected and when restarting or resetting equipment.
The error cannot be recreated.

Completion code group and completion codes: Preventive maintenance

Completion code group: PM Performed according to routine
All maintenance activities regarding preventive maintenance are completed with the completion code group "PM Performed according to routine", followed by one of the following completion codes to facilitate the follow-up of completed PM activities.
 
Status OK
Action or inspection is carried out according to plan/ instruction, and the equipment is in a satisfactory condition and authorised for continued use.

Deviation identified
Control is carried out according to instructions and deviation is identified. Deviation management is planned and managed via follow-up jobs.

Deviation identified and corrected
Control is carried out according to instructions and a minor deviation is identified. Minor non-conformities can be addressed directly without a follow-up job, as the follow-up of these actions does not add much value.

Status OK (change procedure)
The equipment is in good condition and approved for continued use but the routine or intervals need to be adjusted in the original job.

Property to indicate the type of Preventive maintenance

It is easy to specify different types of preventive maintenance in MaintMaster. It is equally easy to create reports showing what has been performed. This is done by using an extra property on the job category Preventive Maintenance, containing a valuelist/dropdown with captions as shown below.
