Your PM program is probably not optimized.
That’s not an insult. It’s a structural reality.
Most PM programs were built by copying OEM recommendations, inheriting tasks from a previous planner, or reacting to whatever broke last quarter. Nobody sat down and asked: what are the actual failure modes for this asset, how severe are they, how often do they occur, and what is the right task to detect or prevent each one?
That structured process is called Preventive Maintenance Optimization.
And it consistently produces measurable results: reduced risk, fewer labor hours, better asset availability.
Module 2 of the SquareMethods curriculum is a 2–3 day on-site PMO workshop where we do exactly that — using your assets, your team, your real failure data.
But here’s what makes it different from every other PMO workshop on the market:
We don’t leave you a binder.
Every optimized PM procedure gets converted into a QR-accessible digital job aid deployed at the machine via SquareMethods. Your technician scans the code. The right procedure appears. They execute it correctly every time.
The strategy doesn’t live in a file on someone’s desktop.
It lives at the asset.
If your plant is running a PM program that hasn’t been reviewed against actual failure modes in the last 3 years — this conversation is overdue.
