How to create a maintenance plan
A step-by-step guide to building a yearly maintenance plan
Compile the asset list
List every machine and piece of equipment to be maintained — with its identifier, location and criticality level. This is the foundation of the maintenance plan.
Define tasks and frequency
Assign maintenance tasks to each asset and set the frequency: daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. Take the manufacturer's specifications and your own experience into account.
Designate responsible people
Decide who is responsible for each task — an in-house technician, the technical lead or a subcontractor. Without clear ownership, there is no accountability.
Set SLA targets
Define the response time and repair deadline for critical and non-critical faults. This ensures your important equipment always takes priority.
Document completion
Document every completed task with a date, signature and comment. This is the foundation of traceability and regulatory compliance.

Why a paper maintenance plan isn't enough
There's nothing wrong with a paper maintenance plan — until you have to track it, update it or show it to an inspector
No one keeps the plan up to date
The yearly plan gets drawn up, then ends up in a drawer. Updates and tracking are zero.
You can't see what's slipping
A paper plan won't show which tasks are overdue or which machine got skipped.
No automatic reminders
Nothing alerts you to maintenance deadlines — only the breakdown does.
Compliance risk
During an inspection you can't prove that mandatory maintenance was actually carried out.
Paper plan vs. digital
Same goal, but one is far more efficient
The digital maintenance plan solves it all
What paper can't do, ServiceLeaf can — and a lot more
Fill it out from mobile
The technician fills out the work order on site, from their phone. Photo, signature, GPS location — every one of them just a tap away.
Automatic notifications
The system automatically reminds you of maintenance deadlines — push notification and email, so no task ever gets missed.
Automatic reports
KPI dashboards, maintenance costs, equipment utilization — at the press of a button, not by manual tallying.
Instant lookup
Any past maintenance can be found in seconds — filter by date, machine, worker or status.
Preventive maintenance
Schedule recurring maintenance tasks automatically. The system does the reminding, not you.
Regulatory compliance
Every change is logged. At an inspection, proving who did what and when is a single click.
