Preventive Maintenance Job Template & Scheduling Matrix
A reusable, risk‑based PM job template you can fill, save, and export — including safety checks, step-by-step tasks, parts, skills, estimated downtime, KPI targets, and a scheduling-priority matrix to balance asset criticality and maintenance capacity.

"IntroductionHtml": "
Use this form to create a risk‑based preventive maintenance (PM) job and generate a scheduling priority.\n
Start by describing the asset and its most likely failure modes. Rate criticality and expected consequences so the scheduling priority reflects where PMs protect safety and production most effectively. The form captures standard job information (steps, safety, parts, skills) so PMs can be imported to your CMMS or saved as a reusable template.
Scheduling matrix (example)
This sample shows how teams typically prioritize work: high criticality + high consequence = top priority. Combine this guidance with local resource capacity to decide when a job must be scheduled.
| Criticality | Consequence | Typical Recommended Frequency | Priority |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 (Very high) | Safety / Major production loss | Weekly–Biweekly | Highest |
| 4 | Significant quality/production impact | Biweekly–Monthly | High |
| 3 | Moderate impact | Monthly–Quarterly | Medium |
| 2 | Minor impact | Quarterly–Semiannual | Low |
| 1 (Low) | Negligible impact | Semiannual–Annual or On Condition | Defer / On Condition |
Below the form fields you can record a recommended schedule slot and notes for CMMS import.
