Preventive maintenance

Routine checks done on time, and the record that says so.

Decide once what gets checked, how often, where and by whom. Maintis raises each job when it is due and shows you which sites kept the schedule.

What it means for you.

Fewer emergencies

The boiler is serviced and the alarm tested before anything fails. A planned visit costs less than a call-out.

Nothing depends on memory

The job is created on the due day with a technician's name on it. If nobody is named, it shows as unassigned until someone takes it.

Proof it was done on time

Routine checks done on time by site, which are overdue, and the closed job with its outcome, notes and photos.

What it costs to skip.

The US Department of Energy puts the saving from preventive maintenance at up to 18% compared with repairing equipment only after it fails (O&M Best Practices Guide). Industry research, not a Maintis result.

Breakdowns

A boiler that fails in January costs more than the service that would have caught it.

Failed safety checks

A missed alarm test or lift inspection is a risk to people, a problem with the inspector and a question from the insurer.

Unhappy tenants and guests

Cold rooms, stuck lifts and leaks are what people remember and write about.

Emergency call-out costs

An out-of-hours contractor costs more than a planned visit, every time.

The plan

Set the standard once, for every site.

Name the check, the interval in days, weeks or months, the first due date, the location, the asset and the default technician. Due dates stay on the same weekday; editing a plan recalculates the next one.

  • Never two jobs for one plan at once
  • A missed visit is counted

The report

Which sites kept the schedule, worst first.

Preventive maintenance done on time is one of the six Overview tiles, against a target, for every site. The inspector gets the closed job with its outcome, notes and photos.

  • By period, up to twelve months
  • Prints as one page
  • Export the lists as CSV
The Overview report for one site: Critical, with open jobs by how late they are, planned visits and issues reviewed on time, AI insights, jobs completed and preventive maintenance due, and six rates against target.

What you hold at every stage.

Set the standard once in the browser. From then on you see the result, not the reminders.

  1. Decided

    You set the standard

    Name the check, how often it repeats, where it is and who does it. Decide once, for every site.

  2. Due

    The job creates itself

    The work order appears when the check is due and the technician gets it on their phone. Nobody has to remember.

  3. Done

    You have proof

    The technician closes the check on the spot with the result and a photo, so the record exists before anyone asks for it.

  4. Reviewed

    You see who is on time

    Reports show routine checks done on time by site, worst first, ready to export for an inspector, an insurer or the board.

Preventive maintenance questions.

What is preventive maintenance?
Routine checks and servicing done on a schedule, before something breaks: boiler services, fire alarm tests, lift inspections, gutter clearing. Maintis creates the job for each one when it is due.
How do I know routine maintenance is being done?
Reports show routine checks done on time by site, and the dashboard shows which ones are overdue. Every closed check keeps its outcome, notes and photos, and nobody can edit or delete the record of it.
Will the team do the checks?
The technician named on the check gets the job on their phone when it is created and closes it on the spot with an outcome and photos. If nobody is named, the job shows as unassigned until someone takes it.
What can I show an inspector or an insurer?
The preventive maintenance report by period and by site, and the closed job for each check with its outcome, notes and photos.
Can a routine check be linked to a piece of equipment?
Yes. Link it to the boiler, lift or pump and every job it creates appears in that asset's history.
