Senior Maintenance Management assistance for small to mid-sized hotels, low to highrise commercial facilities, on an as-needed bases.


In the beginning, of my career of course, business travel was exciting:
•   plane flights
•   new cities, and
•   hotel stays.

After the third or fourth trip business travel was:
•   boring flights
•   hard to get around cities, and
•   the same old hotels.

Today many of these realities including hot humid southern climates or freezing northern ones can now be avoided. 

If you're like me the best thing that ever happened to business travel was Skype.  Having a face to face meeting with one or more people half way around the world is now as simple as booting up your computer. 

You can be in your office, board room, mechanical room, coffee shop or at home and still benefit from this free service.  For the R&M Manager a netbook/laptop, pc connect card and a good signal are essentials.  They allow you to show, in real time, the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) his unit while it is operating or not.  Of course during this show and tell both of you are able to talk to each other.  Oh did I mention he was in another country at the time?

Think of the possibilities for long distance face to face conversations with your: •   mentor
•   coach
•   consultant
•   OEM, or
•   your peers. 

This is a great tool for R&M Managers.  It's time to get with the program, perhaps we'll talk and see each other one day in cyberspace.

It's a fact that building components like food goods and medicines have best before dates.  Actually, it should be referred to as best estimated before date. These dates are critical when preparing R&M budgets and developing maintenance strategy.  

When dealing with building components there are many variables that will affect these dates. Some common ones are,
  -  poor operating conditions (environmental)
  -  higher usage vs. design intent
  -  limited operators skill, and
  -  inadequate maintenance programming. 

Any of these variables can easily reduce best before dates by half.  This need not be the case.  Unscheduled downtime and unplanned equipment replacement can all but be eliminated.  This is achieved through regular existing condition tasks, trending and a sound maintenance management approach.

As an owner, operator and/or manager, there are regulatory requirements that you must comply with.  If you don't, the consequences can be costly and/or fatal.

If you can't tell me all of these requirements from off the top of your head, you're in good company.  An up-dated, regularly reviewed compliance matrix is a must.    

Pomec will help you develop a site-specific compliance matrix.  To request this service or for more information, Click Here.
