Enter the maintenance schedule and usage
Recommended interval, days since last service, usage intensity, criticality, and open fault reports all feed the calculation.

How it works
We calculate a maintenance-urgency score
How far past the recommended interval the equipment sits carries the most weight, boosted by heavy usage, high criticality, and open faults.
Get a scheduling recommendation
Overdue, high-urgency equipment gets immediate scheduling guidance; equipment within schedule needs no action yet.

Frequently asked questions
Does Equipment Care replace a full CMMS (maintenance management system)?
No. It's a fast single-item urgency check using numbers you already know. A full computerized maintenance management system tracks fleets of equipment, work orders, parts, and technician scheduling.
Why does criticality matter if the interval hasn't been exceeded yet?
Life-safety or critical-care equipment carries less tolerance for schedule slippage, so criticality adds urgency weight even before the interval is technically overdue.
What should I do with open fault reports?
Enter the count of currently unresolved fault or issue reports tied to this specific piece of equipment — each one adds meaningful urgency to the score.
Can I use this for non-clinical equipment too?
Yes — the calculation works for any equipment with a maintenance interval, though the criticality framing is written with clinical/safety equipment in mind.
