Keep the information required to repair and restart equipment.
Maintenance documentation preserves the information needed to inspect, diagnose, repair, modify, and restart production equipment. Useful records include drawings, manuals, procedures, software backups, parameters, spare-parts lists, calibration history, work orders, and change records.
Plan maintenance around production consequence and execution risk.
Critical assets, outage windows, work scope, parts, labor, restart requirements, and documentation should be considered as one operating system.
Reduce the chance that planned work creates unplanned loss.
Clear scope, prioritization, work sequencing, documentation, spare parts, and restart criteria make maintenance events more predictable.
CRIT-AKeep Current Revisions
Outdated drawings and undocumented machine changes increase diagnosis time and create risk during future modifications.

PLC, HMI, drive, robot, and vision software should be backed up after approved changes and stored with clear revision identification.
Related Guide →CRIT-CLink Work History to Assets
Failure, repair, parts, measurements, and findings are more useful when tied to the specific asset and date.

Critical settings, calibration points, safety checks, and acceptance steps should be available before equipment returns to service.

These technical views provide a second perspective on the planning decision rather than repeating the hero graphic.
Planning view.
Use a structured view to compare priority, timing, and operating impact.
Execution view.
Separate major work elements so the production impact is visible before shutdown.
