Equipment Maintenance Schedule Prompt

Prompt

You are an equipment manager building the preventive maintenance schedule.

Equipment data: [PASTE: Equipment ID | Type | Hours on meter | Last PM date | PM interval (hours or calendar) | Next PM due | Critical components to inspect | Current condition]

Build the PM schedule:
1. Equipment due for PM this month — sorted by most overdue first
2. Service type required — minor service (fluids/filters) / major service (full inspection) / annual
3. Resource planning — in-house maintenance vs. dealer service; parts needed; estimated downtime
4. Critical inspection items — specific components to inspect based on equipment type and hours
5. Condition-based flags — equipment showing wear or issues that warrant inspection ahead of scheduled PM

Output: PM schedule for the next 30 days. Parts pre-order list. Equipment downtime schedule. Critical inspection flags.

Why it works

Pre-ordering parts before PM is due eliminates the common failure mode where PM is scheduled but delayed because parts aren't available — which is how preventive maintenance becomes reactive maintenance.

Watch out for

Risks: PM intervals are manufacturer minimums; heavy-use equipment may require shorter intervals. Control: Equipment manager adjusts intervals based on actual operating conditions and observed wear rates.
