PPM Creation & Implementation
Many manufacturing sites operate with incomplete maintenance records, inconsistent schedules, and reactive habits that lead to repeated breakdowns and compliance gaps. DEVA Maintenance Services builds structured planned preventative maintenance (PPM) systems from the ground up — creating asset registers, maintenance schedules, task instructions and documentation that your team can actually follow. We start by understanding your equipment, your production priorities, and your existing resource constraints, then design a PPM system that is practical, achievable, and aligned with how your site actually operates. Beyond creating the paperwork, we support implementation — training your team, refining the schedule based on early feedback, and ensuring the system becomes embedded in daily operations rather than sitting on a shelf.
What this service includes
Our PPM creation and implementation service covers asset register creation with equipment tags, locations, criticality ratings, and manufacturer data for every asset that needs maintenance. We develop preventative maintenance schedules based on equipment criticality, usage patterns, manufacturer guidance, and your site's operating environment. Maintenance strategy selection determines the right approach for each asset class — whether that's time-based, condition-based, or run-to-failure with monitoring. We write clear, step-by-step task instructions that can be followed by engineers of varying experience levels, ensuring consistency and quality across your maintenance team. Maintenance documentation and record-keeping systems are set up to capture compliance evidence, track completion rates, and identify overdue tasks. Spare parts list development and critical spares identification ensures you have the right parts available when maintenance is due. Implementation support includes training your team, refining the schedule based on early experience, and aligning the system with audit and insurance requirements.
Common problems we solve
- Breakdowns caused by lack of planned maintenance
- Repeat faults due to inconsistent maintenance practices
- Poor reliability from assets with no maintenance history
- Poor handovers where maintenance knowledge is not documented
- Lack of engineering resource to create and implement a PPM system
- Compliance gaps where maintenance cannot be proven
- Reactive culture that prevents planned work from being completed
