Here’s a Free Guide to Kickstart a Preventive Maintenance Program

August 4, 2020

Flipping a facility to a preventive (or preventative) maintenance program can truly transform the way a building is maintained. From capital planning to better building documentation, the benefits of using a proactive plan make the work well worth the final outcome. Many facility managers like the idea of preventative maintenance but quickly become frustrated by not knowing where to start. The good news is that implementing a proactive process can be painless if building teams develop a solid strategy and use the right tools.
