This practical guide helps you make a better-informed decision before purchasing or contracting. Project-specific requirements always take priority.

Create a reliable asset register

Record each asset by ID, location, model, commissioning date and warranty details. Maintenance quality depends on knowing which specific unit is being serviced.

Set intervals by risk and guidance

Intervals depend on manufacturer guidance, operating hours and environment. Review HVAC filters and drainage, electrical distribution, pumps, leaks and alarms according to a site-specific plan.

Roles, permits and safety

Define requester, technician and approver responsibilities. Some work requires qualified personnel, safe isolation and coordination with occupants.

Document each work order

Each work order should capture location, complaint, inspection, action, parts, photos and closure confirmation. Records help identify recurring root causes.

Track useful indicators

Track planned work completion, repeat incidents, repair time and occupant feedback. The objective is reliable building operation, not simply closing ticket volume.
