Developing a Maintenance Plan
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Today, because of the competitive business environment, organizations tend to minimize
the cost on every angel of expenditures occurred. Considering the expenditure of an
organization, operations and maintenance consumes a large proportion out of total.
As Facilities Managers, it is possible to contribute to reduce cost by introducing novel
concepts regarding maintenance of organization. In that account, predictive maintenance
strategies can be use as an excellent option with preventive strategies to improve the
reliability of machines and to develop a reliability cantered maintenance plan.
Developing maintenance plan is a huge task when considering the scale of the
organization. Even though it is a huge task, preparing it is very pleasure task. Detail
investigation must be carried out to do that well. There are various steps to follow to
develop a better maintenance plan each step has to be followed very carefully.
The main purpose on this report is to improve the reliability of equipment by introducing
some predictive maintenance strategies in a particular building. In order to achieve that
purpose we selected the most sophisticated factory in Sri Lanka named Glaxo Smith
Kline (GSK).
This report consists of four chapters and first chapter provides an introduction to
predictive maintenance and highlighting its importance and includes includes the existing
maintenance strategies of the GSK. The second chapter provides details about the Asset
registry and the details of how it has been categorised based on its criticality. the third
chapter, proposed preventive maintenance programme is mentioned along with
maintenance schedule, check lists work instructions and human resource allocation plan.
Appropriate predictive maintenance technologies are illustrated in fourth chapter. The last
chapter is the conclusion to the report that depicts the findings and issues of our survey
effort.

Developing a Maintenance Plan
3.0 MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT
The term ‘maintenance’ means to keep the equipment in operational condition or repair it
to its operational mode. Main objective of the maintenance is to have increased
availability of production systems, with increased safety and optimized cost. Maintenance
management involves managing the functions of maintenance. Maintaining equipment in
the field has been a challenging task since the beginning of industrial revolution. Since
then, a significant of progress has been made to maintain equipment effectively in the
field. As the engineering equipment becomes sophisticated and expensive to produce and
maintain, maintenance management has to face even more challenging situations to
maintain effectively such equipment in industrial environment.
A good maintenance management system coupled with knowledgeable and capable
maintenance staff can prevent health and safety problems and environmental damage;
yield longer asset life with fewer breakdowns; and result in lower operating costs and a
higher quality of life. The objectives of the maintenance management system;
Optimize the use of available funds, personnel, and facilities and equipment
through effective maintenance management methods.
Provide accurate data for maintenance and construction program decision making.
Systematically identify maintenance needs and deficiencies and capital
improvement needs at all field stations.
Determine the unfunded maintenance backlog for the Service.
Enable preparation of Service maintenance and construction budget requests using
systematic, standardized procedures.
Monitor and document corrective actions, project expenditures, and
accomplishments.
3.1 Elements of effective maintenance management
An effective maintenance system includes the following elements.
Maintenance Policy
Control of materials
Preventive Maintenance
Condition Monitoring
Department of Building Economics Page 8
Developing a Maintenance Plan
Work Order
Job planning
Priority and backlog control
Data recording system
Performance measurement measures or indices
Maintenance performance for an organization or plant can be assessed through analysis of
Reliability, Availability and Maintainability. Relevant parameters, measures or indices
for specific plants/equipments can be identified .The performance over a period of time
will show if it is improving, going down or being sustained. This will also help in
knowing how well the objectives are being met. In addition, it will guide the areas which
are strong and which need to be strengthened.
3.2 Maintenance strategies or options
A maintenance strategy or option means a scheme for maintenance, i.e. an elaborate and
systematic plan of maintenance action. Following are the maintenance strategies that are
commonly applied
Breakdown Maintenance or Operate to Failure or Unplanned Maintenance
The equipment under breakdown maintenance is allowed to run until it breaks down and
then repairing it and putting back to operation. This strategy is suitable for equipments
that are not critical and have spare capacity or redundancy available.
Preventive or Scheduled Maintenance
Preventative experience is a very valuable teacher. There is nothing wrong in seeking
expert advice, from whatever source, to prevent problems occurring. It is carried out at
pre-determined intervals, or corresponding to prescribed criteria, and intended to reduce
the probability of failure, or the performance degradation of an item.
Predictive or Condition Based Maintenance
Condition monitoring detects and diagnoses faults and it helps in planned maintenance
based on equipment condition. This condition based maintenance strategy or predictive
maintenance is preferred for critical systems and for such systems breakdown
maintenance is to be avoided. A number of Condition monitoring techniques such as
Department of Building Economics Page 9
Developing a Maintenance Plan
vibration, temperature, oil analysis, etc. have been developed, which guide the users in
planned maintenance
Opportunity Maintenance
In opportunity maintenance, timing of maintenance is determined by the procedure
adopted for some other item in the same unit or plant.
Design out Maintenance
In design out maintenance, the aim is to minimize the effect of failures and in fact
eliminates the cause of maintenance. Although it is an engineering design problem, yet it
is often a responsibility of maintenance department. This is opted for items of high
maintenance cost that are due to poor maintenance, poor design or poor design outside
design specifications. It may be mentioned that a best maintenance strategy for each item
should be selected by considering its maintenance characteristics, cost and safety.
3.3 Preventive maintenance
Preventive maintenance is regular, repetitive work done to keep equipment in good
working order and to optimize its efficiency and accuracy. The preventive maintenance is
the prevention of equipment breakdowns before them happen. It provides the prevention
of equipment breakdowns before them happen. It is designed to preserve and enhance
equipment reliability by replacing worn components before they actually fail. This
activity involves regular, routine cleaning, lubricating, testing, calibrating and adjusting,
checking for wear and tear and eventually replacing components to avoid breakdown.
Preventive activities are primarily condition based. The condition of a component,
measured when the equipment is operating, governs planned/scheduled maintenance.
Typical preventive maintenance activities include periodic inspections, condition
monitoring, critical item replacements, and calibrations. In order to accomplish this,
blocks of time are incorporated into the operations schedule. One can easily see that this
is the beginning of a proactive mode rather than a reactive one.
Preventive maintenance encompasses activities, including adjustments, replacement, and
basic cleanliness, that forestall machine breakdowns. The purpose of preventive
maintenance is to ensure that production quality is maintained and that delivery schedules
are met.
Department of Building Economics Page 10
Developing a Maintenance Plan
3.3.1 Preventive maintenance helps to:
Improve production by reducing machines down time
Is cost effective in many capital intensive processes and equipment
Provides flexibility for the adjustment of maintenance periodicity
Increases component life cycle and efficiency
Generates energy savings
Avoid unexpected equipment or process failures that cause to product loss.
Results in an estimated 12% to 18% cost savings over that found in a reactive
maintenance program
It also helps to avoid the replacing of the parts of the equipment before the
scheduled time.
It also ensures the safety of the person who is working with the machine since if
the machine is not in a proper condition it might also lead to a major accident
which is not desirable at all.
3.3.2 Long-term benefits of preventive maintenance;
Improve system reliability.
Decrease cost of replacement.
Decrease system downtime.
Better spares inventory management

Developing a Maintenance Plan
4.0 STEPS TO START A MAINTENANCE PROGRAM TO GSK
The maintenance plan should consist of a schedule of preventive maintenance work and
guidelines for the implementation of corrective maintenance work. It should ensure that
resources are directed in the best way to achieve the planned output. Even if the
maintenance activities of a organization are always consider as a cost component, a
proper maintenance plan leads the company to reach its profit margin through minimizing
the maintenance expenses. Even though the maintenance schedule exists, implementation
of such schedules has to be rigorously carried out.
this project focus on starting a maintenance program to GSK. To accomplish this task
group followed some methodology and steps. As the first step; identified the systems of
GSK- Rathmlna, System operations, current maintenance activities of the maintenance
procedure were found and prepared an Assets Registry. Secondly focused on,
Prioritization of equipments according to their criticality for the reliable operation of
building.
The next step taken was, Studying the system component, maintenance procedures and
instructions by referring the Manufacture’s Manuals. It helps to identify the maintenance
activities for particular equipment and prepare a maintenance schedule for each
equipment using the knowledge on systems and information getting through the manuals.
Thereafter, clearly classified the maintenance works periodically (Daily, weekly,
Monthly, Quarterly, Bi – annually and annually). Then prepared the General Maintenance
Instructions for maintenance works to be followed by the work force to carry out the
maintenance work without any injury.
Finally to carry out the maintenance programme prepared the human power was allocated
for each equipment separately. Because the organization must provide enough qualified
personal resources to perform maintenance tasks.

5.0 PRIORITIZATION OF EQUIPMENTS
When consider the preventive maintenance program; after prepared the Assets Registry
(listing all the assets or equipments); need to do the Prioritization of equipments
according to their criticality for the reliable operation of building. Because if a preventive
maintenance program is to succeed manager must learn to use economic decisions. It
must be dynamic and flexible when describing what and how often to perform
maintenance functions. To accomplish this task Prioritization of assets is become crucial.
To develop the Maintenance program for the factory building the following issues should
be the main considerations.
(1) How critical is the equipment?
(2) Does the normal size of the equipment without preventive maintenance exceed
operating needs?
(3) Is standby equipment available in case of failure?
(4) Does the cost of preventive maintenance exceed the cost of repair or replacement?
(5) Will failure to maintain equipment harm peoples, staff or visitors?
The GSK is consist lot of equipment use for the medicine manufacturing. According to
our assets registry we mentioned that the equipments categorized into two types such as
manufacturing equipments and non manufacturing equipments therefore the proper
management of this equipment is a complex and costly task that can be accomplished
through careful and systematic risk assessment regarding various types of equipment. to
this assessment we mainly concern about the non manufacturing equipments. The
identified risks can then be used as a basis for structuring and operating an equipment
management program. Once the initial assessment is made, an organization can develop
programs of preventive maintenance based on the risk involved.
Investigations have been carried out to identify the maintenance requirements of the
building and identified some risk levels for the equipment. This risk levels are base for
the identification of the maintenance requirement of equipment. Following describe about
the risk levels. Those risk levels have some sub categories
Department of Building Economics Page 18
Developing a Maintenance Plan
Risk level I
Equipment Functional Areas - Various environmental areas in which equipment is used
Risk level II
Impact of Failure or Malfunction - Defines potential impact scenarios that may result due
to failure or malfunction of the equipment.
Risk level III
Preventive Maintenance Frequency - Defines the level and frequency of preventive
maintenance required.
Assets are described under above risk level clarifications and it receives some points.
Then according to the total value of points we can decide the Maintenance Priority for the
equipments.

8.0 PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE
Predictive Maintenance can be defined as measurements that detect the onset of a
degradation mechanism, thereby allowing casual stressors to be eliminated or controlled
prior to any significant deterioration in the component physical state. Predictive
maintenance is used to define needed maintenance task based on quantified
material/equipment condition. Predictive maintenance is unscheduled maintenance based
on data collected from the actual plant. It also falls under the proactive maintenance
category. From the data collected during routine maintenance we can see the condition of
the equipment and plant and base our maintenance procedure upon this condition. This
provides us with information so that we can conduct our maintenance accordingly and
greatly reduce our maintenance and downtime costs. Recommendations provided from
the results of data collected must be followed to increase the efficiency of the plant and
preclude future emergencies.
Predictive maintenance involves performing maintenance on a machine in advance of the
time a failure would occur if the maintenance were not performed. Of course, this means
that one must calculate when a machine is predicted to fail. In order to do this, the firm
must collect data on variables that can be used to indicate an impending failure (vibration,
temperature, sound, colour, etc.). This data is then analyzed to approximate when a
failure will occur and maintenance is then scheduled to take place prior to this time. By
seeking the correct level of maintenance required, unplanned downtime is minimized.
Inspection
This can be done by the five senses of a person to determine the condition of the
equipment or component.
Condition Monitoring
Some parameters can be monitored; using sophisticated measuring equipment, to detect
signs of imminent failure. Examples of these are Vibration, Shock Pulse, Oil condition,
Acoustic emissions, Equipment Performance, Thermography, and Non-destructive
Testing. These techniques are discussed in detail in the following section.
Department of Building Economics Page 49
Developing a Maintenance Plan
8.1 The characteristics of predictive maintenance are the following:
It uses feedback and communications to ensure that changes in procedures are
promptly made available to managers. list item
It employs a life-cycle view of maintenance and supporting functions.
It ensures that nothing affecting maintenance occurs in isolation.
It employs a continuous process of improvement.
It optimizes and tailors maintenance techniques and technologies to each
application.
It integrates functions that support maintenance into maintenance program
planning.
It uses root-cause failure analysis and predictive analysis to maximize
maintenance effectiveness.
It periodically evaluates the technical content and performance interval of
maintenance tasks (PM and PTI)
8.2 Advantages of predictive maintenance
Increased component operational life/availability
Allows for pre-emptive corrective action
Decrease in equipment or process downtime
Better product quality
Improved worker and environmental safety
Improved worker moral
Energy saving
8.3 Thermography
Thermographic testing is a technique that uses the latest infrared imaging technology to
detect problems that can’t always be seen by the human eye. Using a thermal image
camera, abnormal heat generation caused by loose connections or other sources in
electrical panels, compressors, pumps, switchgears, motors and motor control centres can
be easily identified. The images taken during these tests can be used to quickly identify
problem areas so preventive maintenance measures can be taken to correct the problems
before equipment is damaged. This predictive maintenance technique reduces costly
downtime by identifying faulty equipment before it becomes a problem and helps to
Department of Building Economics Page 50
Developing a Maintenance Plan
reduce hazardous fires or other life threatening malfunctions. Types of Thermographic
tools are mentioned below.
Spot radiometer (Infrared thermometer)
Cooled infrared detectors
Fully automated sensors
Infrared cameras
Un cooled infrared detectors
Thermal imaging camera & screen
8.4 lubricating oil analysis
This is an analysis technique, which determines the condition of lubricatin goils used in
mechanical and electrical equipment. However, it is nota tool for determining the
operating condition of machinery. Some forms of lubricating oil analysis will provide an
accurate quantitative breakdown of individual chemical elements, both oil additive and
contaminates, contained in the oil. As a predictive maintenance tool, lubricating oil and
spectrographic analysis can be used to schedule oil change intervals based on the actual
condition of the oil.
8.5 Utrasonic Monitoring
This predictive maintenance technique monitors the noise generated by plant machinery
or systems to determine their actual operating condition and ultrasonic monitors the
higher frequencies (i.e., ultrasound) produced by unique dynamics in process systems or
machines. As part of a predictive maintenance program, ultrasonic instruments are used
for three primary applications: airborne noise analysis, leak detection, or material testing.
The principal application for ultrasonic monitoring is in leak detection. Two types of
ultrasonic systems are available that can be used for predictive maintenance: structural
and airborne. Types of ultrasonic tools are mentioned below.

Developing a Maintenance Plan
8.6 Vibration monitoring
This technique uses the noise or vibration created by mechanical equipment and in some
cases by plant systems to determine their actual condition. Any degradation of the
mechanical condition within plant machinery can be detected using vibration-monitoring
techniques. Used properly, vibration analysis can identify specific degrading machine
components or the failure mode of plant machinery before serious damage occurs. Most
vibration-based predictive maintenance programs rely on one or more monitoring
techniques. These techniques include broadband trending, narrowband trending, or
signature analysis. Types of Vibration Monitoring tools are mentioned below.
Transducers
Vibration analyzer
8.7 Motor Analysis
When it comes to motor condition analysis, infrared (IR) and vibration will not provide
all the answers required to properly characterize motor condition. Traditional electrical
testing methods must be used in conjunction with vibration analysis to prevent premature
failure of electric motors. These tests should include:
8.7.1 Megger Testing
In order to measure high resistances, a device known as a mega-ohmmeter can beused.
This instrument differs from a normal ohmmeter in that instead of measuring current to
determine resistance, it measures voltage. This mode of testing involve sapplying
relatively high voltage (500 to 2,500 volts, depending on the unit) to thecircuit and
verifying that no breakdown is present. Generally, this is considered as non-destructive
test, depending on the applied voltage and the rating of the insulation. This method of
testing is used primarily to test the integrity of insulation. It will not detect shorts between
windings, but it can detect higher-voltage–related problems with respect to ground.
Department of Building Economics Page 52
Figure 4 Vibration Analyzer
Developing a Maintenance Plan
8.7.2 Resistance Testing
Resistance is measured by using an ohmmeter. In reality, an ohmmeter does not directly
measure resistance; it measures current instead. The scale of the meter is calibrated in
ohms, but the meter movement responds to current. The amount of current supplied by
the meter is very low, typically in the rage of 20 to 50 microamperes. The meter functions
by applying its terminal voltage to the test subject and measuring the current in the
circuit.
8.7.3 Impedance Testing
Impedance has two components: a real (or resistive) component and a reactive (inductive
or capacitive) component. This method of testing is useful because it can detect
significant shorting in coils, either between turns or to ground. Other non-intrusive
methods are not existed to detect a coil that is shorted between turns. Types of impedance
testing tools are mentioned below.

11.0 CONCLUSIONS
The ultimate goal of any maintenance plan is to identify the imminent failures and make a
prognosis of the remaining useful life of analysed component regardless of which
technique is used. Predictive maintenance is not just acting according to a prescheduled
operational programmed but predicting the likely defect of the equipment and its
affection to overall reliability of the facility.
The maintenance environment of tomorrow will exist mostly for those who are highly
skilled in maintenance. Therefore, careful study to improve methods and reduce
maintenance costs is imperative. Achieving these initiatives will help potentially save
millions in maintenance-related expenditure over time. Analysis of the various elements
of strategic maintenance management indicates that it is a comprehensive and composite
system of integrated processes, but not necessarily a complex one.
This process, as depicted within this project, will achieve an orderly flow of work when
each element is appreciated and properly placed in relation to the other, thus allowing
mission, vision and goals/ objectives of any pharmaceutical facility maintenance strategic
plan to develop and experience success.
Continues monitoring through some specified selected instruments to identify the
different parameters of each equipment is the key operational difference in predictive
maintenance. Strategic decision making is also another key characteristic feature of the
procedure which make possible the predetermining the problem occurrence time frames
and provisions to be made and relative time constrains too. Cost effectiveness and
reliability are correlated features in predictive management where according to the
monitoring frequency demanded cost parameters and reliable operations can be achieved
with less and motivated work force.
