A demonstration of a maintenance request form may be seen in the image above.

This form can be used to provide information on our maintenance needs and requirements.

First, let's have a look at the fields available on this page.

Title: This area can be used to enter the request name so that the maintenance management team can quickly identify the request's content.

Created By: Team members can use this field to identify the individual who is initiating the maintenance request.

Equipment: A company may use several sorts of equipment, and we must identify the type of equipment here.

Request Date: In order to keep track of the maintenance records, we must include the date on which the request was made.

Maintenance Type: This is an extremely significant field, and we have two alternatives. We have the option of selecting Corrective or Preventive. This one must be completed in accordance with the requirements. We can look into what preventative and corrective maintenance entail.

Corrective Maintenance: When the equipment has a technical issue, this type of maintenance is performed. The goal of corrective maintenance is to fix defective equipment. Unplanned maintenance procedures that necessitate the maintenance team's immediate attention are referred to as corrective maintenance.

Preventive Maintenance: This is a type of maintenance that is done on a regular basis. To avoid mechanical breakdown, preventive maintenance is performed. This is done to keep the machine from being damaged. It will also assist us in extending the equipment's life.

Team: This is a field where we can specify the name of the maintenance team that will be in charge of the job. In the manufacturing industry, there will be several maintenance teams from which to choose.

Responsible: Even after selecting a maintenance team, we must appoint someone to be in charge of the operation.

Scheduled date: By selecting a date, we can schedule a maintenance date.

Priority: Depending on the emergency, we can set the priority.

Company: This is the field where you can enter the name of the company. When we subcontract work or seek equipment manufacturer backing for the work, this becomes critical.
