What Are Failed Items In Preventive Maintenance (Inspection)

When an inspection or preventive maintenance is performed, most times there will be a checklist with questions that will evaluate the performance of underlying asset/equipment/process.

These evaluations will either have- 

• A rating or scoring mechanism or 
• Simple Yes/No type answers or
• Benchmark reading criteria that these assets/processes must meet 

Whenever a question is answered with a choice that doesnt meet the criteria, it’s considered as a failed item in that inspection/PM.

That is how the inspection/PM score percentage is also derived. For example, if there were 10 questions and eight met the criteria but two failed items, then the inspection/PM score would be 80%.

You can access the failed items in-

1. Hover on ‘Services’
2. From the drop-down menu, click ‘Failed Items’
3. This lists all the failed items. You may filter the data based on statuses, customer etc., and can also access the ‘Failed Items’ Dashboard’ from here
