Preventive Maintenance

This is a critical practice for keeping equipment and facilities in good working order.

Preventive Maintenance involves regularly scheduled checks, servicing, and repairs carried out on machinery, vehicles, and structures before a breakdown occurs. In construction, this means routinely inspecting excavators, cranes, trucks, and other heavy equipment, changing fluids, lubricating parts, and replacing worn components based on a set schedule or usage hours. The goal of P&M is to prevent unexpected equipment failures, reduce costly downtime on project sites, extend the lifespan of valuable assets, and ensure safety. By proactively maintaining their "plant and machinery," construction companies can avoid major disruptions and keep projects on schedule and within budget.
