Establish the baseline
Organise equipment identification, available technical documents and the current operating arrangement. An accurate baseline helps the team distinguish an equipment issue from a configuration or interface change.
Keep the operating picture current.
Maintenance begins with clear equipment records and a realistic understanding of the installation. Support needs vary with the technology, operating duty and access conditions, so service arrangements should be defined for the actual site.

Organise equipment identification, available technical documents and the current operating arrangement. An accurate baseline helps the team distinguish an equipment issue from a configuration or interface change.
Coordinate inspections and service activities with equipment guidance and the site operating schedule. Define access, isolation requirements and responsibility before work starts.
Capture symptoms, alarms, recent changes and the operating conditions around an event. Structured observations support diagnostics and reduce the risk of losing useful evidence.
Update maintenance records, configuration backups and spare parts information after agreed work. Review recurring issues and use the findings to refine future service planning.
| Design input | What to coordinate |
|---|---|
| Asset identity | Equipment location, model information and document references |
| Event history | Observed symptoms, alarms and recent configuration changes |
| Actions & follow-up | Work completed, test observations and outstanding decisions |
The agreed service scope should identify deliverables, site responsibilities and the information needed from other project parties. Specialist design decisions, approval requirements and operating permissions remain with the appointed responsible parties.
A shared action list makes progress visible. Record each open item with an owner, a required date and the evidence needed to close it, then preserve the final status with the handover documentation.
