What is planned preventative maintenance?
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.

Questions from Edinburgh and Lothians customers
Is PPM cheaper than fixing things when they break?
Usually over the life of the building, because planned work avoids emergency call-out rates, unplanned downtime and early replacement of plant.
