MAINTENANCE DICTIONARY
Actuarial analysis: Statistical calculation, especially of life expectancy
Add-on work: Work added to a maintenance schedule after the agreed
upon cut-off time for the schedule.
Action results Indicator: Key Performance Indicators used for
measuring results of actions that indirectly or directly impacts the
financial performance of the company.
Apprentice: An employee in a certified training program to become a
craftsperson.
Asset: An accounting term for any physical thing owned by a plant,
such as buildings, equipment, desks, software, computers etc.
Asset number: A number that follows a particular asset in a plant,
should be used for accounting purposes.
Note an asset number is different from an equipment location number.
An equipment location number stays in the same location, where an
asset number may move location.
Asset Replacement Value: The current accounting value of all
combined physical assets in a plant.
Assessment – reliability: A study comparing the Current best Practices
(CBP) with actual performance. The study assesses the effectiveness of
processes in place.
Autonomous Maintenance: Maintenance processes driven by hourly
workforce without management support or intervention.
Autonomous Training: Training that is incorporated into the day-to-
day work processes. The training is based on experiences and findings
from the daily work and is then communicated on a regular basis.
Availability: Percentage of total hours (8760/year) or scheduled
operating time a system is available for production.
Backlog: Volume of all requested maintenance work, yet not completed

Backlog – approved: The approved backlog is all maintenance work


that is not completed, but approved for execution.
Benchmarking   The continuous, systematic search for, and
implementation of, better practices that lead to improved performance
Bill of Materials (BOM)   A document of all parts for an asset.
Break down   When a piece of equipment ceases to function (according
to predetermined parameters)
Break-In job: Work that changes a set schedule after an agreed upon
cut-off time. Break in job are either:
Break-downs
Emotional add-on work
Capital work: Work done for improvements or betterments which will
increase the value of assets. Capital Spares   Spare parts that are
depreciated (not expensed) in accounting books.
Charge rate: The amount per hour a resource cost for the company.
Wages plus benefits: Benefits are usually around 35% of the salary in
the USA, 50-60% in Europe. Benefits include insurances, vacations,

equipment, makes systems.
Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS): A
computer program or interfacing programs used to manage the
maintenance function in a plant.
Condition Based Maintenance (CBM): Maintenance actions taken as a
result of investigated condition of parts or components. The condition
is measured or evaluated during programmed inspections of parts and
components.
Condition Monitoring: All work performed in order to find failures
early.
Consequence Of Break-Down (COB): The “cost”, not always
measured in money, of a break down of equipment. COB is prioritized
as follows:
Environmental damage or safety hazard
Production loss
High Cost (equipment life)
Continuous Improvement: Continuous improvement of existing
practices resulting in improved performance.
Corrective Maintenance: All maintenance performed to correct a break
down or failure.
