Study Notes

Preventive Maintenance (PM) Program

Contain and balance man-hours per shop to identify top PM requirements and determine shortfalls
Schedule all possible PM, prioritizing work priority 2A over corrective and enhancement maintenance
Create local supplemental PM Task Lists (PMTLs) to ensure PM coverage where applicable
Validate the PM program annually to ensure assets exist, and condition and frequency adjustments are made
Develop KPIs to track CM to PM ratios, Emergency to PM ratios, etc.

Scheduling and Resource Management

Manage schedules monthly, quarterly, and annually to proactively balance resources against fixed bills like PM and Plant Ops (PO)
Budget hours realistically towards CM, reviewing tentative schedules 6-12 months out
Blend CE identified work, external customer requirements, and larger facility projects
Achieve cornerstones of the in-house maintenance investment strategy when resources are projected to be available

Work Prioritization

Track requirements and work history across four classifications to support CE operations work
Quarterly, confirm PM cost (including labor and materiel) to assist in making operational, maintenance, repair, and/or replacement decisions
Identify requirements for the appropriate method of execution (R&M, Sustainment, In-House, SABER)

AMP and Sub-AMP Development

At the Developing Capability level, AMP and Sub-AMP programs formalize processes to conduct in-depth analysis of PM and CM
CEOER integrates into shop requirements and prioritization, using the AMP and Sub-AMP structure to drive medium-term funding decisions
Begin integrating SMS tools into maintenance decision making and plans

Evaluating Alternative Programs

Evaluate opportunities like over-hires, Air Reserve Component (ARC), overtime, 1219 Program, contracts, etc. as possible force support to complete mission requirements
Consider alternative programs and means to accomplish all backlogged, valid CM work

ROI Evaluation

Evaluate ROI for establishing/maintaining a high-use facility AF Form 1219 like program to better manage high-volume, low-effort tasks to satisfy FM requirements
Based on SR volume from high-use facilities, evaluate current shop-based WT responsiveness and manning capacity for dedicated multi-craft maintenance teams

PM Program Management

CEOER manages the PM program, including inventorying, assessing, validating, balancing, optimizing, and scheduling PM across all shops
Confirm local supplemental PMTLs have been created, ensuring PM coverage where applicable
Perform annual PM program validation
