For Barrow-in-Furness sites, the first PPM visit usually finds overdue statutory items, so the opening months focus on bringing everything back into date.
What planned preventative maintenance covers
Planned preventative maintenance (PPM) is a scheduled programme of inspections, servicing and statutory tests for a building's plant and systems, carried out before things fail. We build the PPM calendar from an asset register, visit on a fixed cycle and hand back certificates and reports after every visit.

Usually over the life of the building, because planned work avoids emergency call-out rates, unplanned downtime and early replacement of plant.
