A food manufacturing site improved equipment reliability by transitioning from a reactive maintenance approach to a structured preventive maintenance strategy. The facility faced challenges including lack of PM programs, incomplete asset data, poor scheduling, and weak work management processes. A comprehensive program was implemented to develop preventive maintenance tasks, bill of materials, and equipment criticality rankings, all integrated into a CMMS system. Standardized processes, performance tracking, and staff coaching enabled disciplined execution. The result was improved planning, full schedule attainment, and a scalable maintenance framework that increased equipment availability and supported long-term operational efficiency.
