Workshop Preventive Maintenance

Service the MachineBefore It Becomes Downtime.Keep the Record With It.

GRIT turns calendar schedules, machine usage, and condition signals into visible maintenance work for school shops, makerspaces, labs, and mixed-machine facilities.

Preventive. Condition-Based. Predictive. They Are Not the Same.

Preventive Maintenance

Planned work triggered by a calendar date, elapsed time, or supported machine usage.

Condition Monitoring

A compatible sensor crosses a threshold or shows a condition that needs inspection.

Predictive Maintenance

Validated analysis forecasts likely failure. GRIT does not use this label for ordinary schedules or threshold alerts.

The Workflow

Make Every Task Assigned, Completed, and Traceable

01

Register

Create or import the asset and attach the service information.

02

Schedule

Set a calendar or supported usage interval.

03

Assign

Notify the responsible person and present the checklist.

04

Retain

Keep completion, notes, documents, and history with the asset.

Maintenance Inputs

Trigger Work From What the Shop Already Knows

Calendar Intervals

Daily, weekly, monthly, seasonal, or date-based service.

Machine Usage

Where activity is supported and recorded, service can follow machine hours or cycles.

Condition Thresholds

Compatible pressure, environment, or equipment signals can flag an inspection need.

Inspection Findings

A checklist result can create the next action and preserve the evidence.

Designed for Mixed Fleets

Maintenance for the Machines That Share Your Shop

Education
School Shops and Makerspaces

Keep many tool types, student-facing machines, and semester turnover inside one visible maintenance process.

Commercial
Small Manufacturers

Tie mixed legacy equipment and shared shop assets to clear ownership and retained service history.

Tool Cribs
Shared Equipment Fleets

Connect custody, utilization, inspections, and service records without a separate record for every workflow.

Questions

Preventive Maintenance FAQ

Can GRIT schedule work from machine hours?

Where GRIT records supported machine activity, service intervals can follow usage. The equipment review confirms the signal, control hardware, and interval.

Can technicians use checklists?

Yes. Work can be assigned with the steps and information required for completion, and the result stays with the asset history.

Can sensors create maintenance alerts?

Compatible condition signals can cross defined thresholds and prompt inspection. A threshold alert is condition monitoring, not automatically predictive maintenance.

Does this work with asset checkout and machine access?

That connection is GRIT's advantage: the same platform can relate custody, authorization, recorded usage, and maintenance to the physical asset.
