Description
This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to plan and implement maintenance schedules in accordance with relevant regulatory requirements and workplace procedures. This includes establishing maintenance requirements, organising maintenance activities, organising resources, and completing all required procedures and documentation. Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements are applicable to this unit.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1Establish maintenance requirements
- 1.1 Equipment specifications, service requirements and workplace procedures are checked for recommended maintenance intervals and processes
- 1.2 Special requirements for maintenance of storage zones are identified
- 1.3 Comparisons with previous experience, future equipment use, work requirements and standard operating procedures are made to inform the planning process
- 1.4 Work plan and work schedule are developed
- 1.5 Contractors and/or maintenance providers (internal/external) are identified
- 1.6 Costings for process are identified based on work schedule (equipment/staff off-line), equipment manufacturers recommendations, charges for materials, equipment and consumables and external/internal labour charges
- 1.7 Required interruptions, processes and procedures are documented and recorded
- 1.8 Clearances for any required costs for maintenance are obtained
2Organise maintenance activities
- 2.1 Work schedules and staff rosters are checked to identify times when the maintenance process may be scheduled including optimum timing for any shut down
- 2.2 Permission from supervisory personnel is obtained for timing of maintenance to optimise the maintenance process and work
- 2.3 Detailed work plans are developed to accord with work schedules, availability of expertise and the resource availability
- 2.4 Employees with the required competencies are identified and where necessary appropriate training and assessment is facilitated
- 2.5 Approvals for work schedule, employee work pattern and maintenance schedule adjustments are obtained and work plan is refined to ensure the maintenance program will maintain workplace outputs in terms of workplace policy
3Organise resources
- 3.1 Required equipment, personnel and consumables are allocated in accordance with workplace procedures
- 3.2 Consumables, equipment and expertise are located and coordinated to meet maintenance work schedule
- 3.3 Externally sourced equipment, consumables and expertise are identified and appropriate arrangements made for procurement
4Complete maintenance procedures
- 4.1 Completed work is checked against the maintenance schedule and the work plan
- 4.2 Records of work are completed and forwarded to appropriate personnel noting areas where additional maintenance is required to maintain optimum work output and equipment life
