Preventive Maintenance Cost Database

4BT – Locally Researched Preventive Maintenance Cost Database

  • Objectively Verify and Quantify Costs specific to actual location for PM Labor, Materials, and equipment replacement as required
  • Ensure proper timing and checklists for all PM tasks
  • Record and Document that all equipment is receiving required maintenance per defined schedule

 

Over 2500 Preventive Maintenance tasks organized by expanded UNIFORMAT.  Each PM task is based upon industry standards, each with multiple checklists for a specific frequency, as well as associated labor, material, and total cost.

Planned, systematic, targeted, cost-effective, and managed preventive maintenance.

Fully transparent scope of work, schedule, and costs.

4BT exclusively enables real property owners and facilities management to adopt efficient preventive maintenance strategies via robust industry standards.   We support vital stewardship of the built environment for owners, users, and the community.

  • Cost-effective preventive maintenance
  • Local market costs for all preventive maintenance activities, processes, and procedures.
  • Simple integration into CMMS software of other maintenance management systems.
  • Superior to benchmarking or reliance upon contractor quotes.
  • Enables quantitative measurement of continuous improvement.
  • Support for sustainability initiatives.
  • Industry standard terms and data architecture

The only objective resource for local market maintenance management requirements and cost management and improving process flows. A foundational asset for  foundational asset management systems-based thinking.

Facilities Maintenance Cost Data

Effective Preventive maintenance (PM) is a critical component of facilities lifecycle asset management and necessary to cost effectively meet organizational functional requirements.

Preventive Maintenance –  Planned actions are undertaken to retain an item at a specified level of performance by providing repetitive scheduled tasks which prolong system operation and a useful life, i.e. inspection, cleaning, lubrication, part replacement. (Cotts, Lee, 1992)

Efficient preventive maintenance requires a robust programmatic process supported by a detailed knowledge base of required tasks, frequencies and associated labor and material costs.   A proven suite of processes and tools ensures the appropriate optimization of critical facilities systems throughout their lifecycles in concert with an organizations core mission.

Schedule and perform regular inspections and perform requisite equipment maintenance tasks from a defined requirements list to ensure optimal performance and energy efficiency, including but not limited to…

    • Lubrication of moving parts
    • Leak checking
    • Cleaning and mechanical adjustments
    • Filter cleaning/replacements
    • Fluid level/gas monitoring/replacement
    • Measurements/alignments
    • Controls adjustment
    • Repair and replace any defective equipment/parts
