What ReSpark changes about preventative maintenance

The old way creates work. ReSpark replaces it.

Without ReSpark

Preventive maintenance schedules live in spreadsheets with no connection to actual usage.

Maintenance is reactive: equipment breaks, production stops, the team scrambles.

Compliance-required maintenance intervals are tracked manually.

With ReSpark

Preventive scheduling automated based on time, meter readings, or usage triggers.

Work orders generate automatically when service is due.

Pre-populated with correct checklists, parts lists, and technician assignment.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How far ahead do we get warned?

Service alerts fire roughly 40 hours of runtime before a service is due, calculated from rolling utilization averages rather than a fixed calendar guess. That is enough lead time to schedule a mechanic and order parts.

Do we have to create the work order ourselves?

No. When a PM comes due, a work order is created automatically with the correct checklist and parts list pre-filled, ready to assign.

Can schedules be based on usage instead of dates?

Yes. Meter and usage-based triggers run alongside calendar schedules, so a machine that ran double shifts gets serviced sooner than one that sat idle.

Can we plan further out than the next service?

Yes. Maintenance forecasting projects upcoming needs weeks and months ahead, which is how teams plan mechanic capacity, parts purchasing, and equipment availability before service becomes urgent.

How do we standardize PMs across multiple yards?

Build a PM template once and deploy it across every facility, so the same equipment type gets the same inspection cadence regardless of location — with local assignment still handled site by site.
