IgeraIndustria indexes your LOTO procedures by equipment and energy type — electrical, pneumatic, hydraulic, thermal, chemical and gravitational — and retrieves the specific lockout sequence for each machine or system. It cites both your internal LOTO procedure (POE-MANT or equivalent) and the applicable legal reference: RD 614/2001 for electrical energy, ISO 45001:2018 clause 8.1.3 for change management and the OSHA 29 CFR 1910.147 standard if your plant has international operations. For complex equipment with multiple energy sources, IgeraIndustria lists each isolation point, the responsible technician profile and the verification steps before authorising work to begin.

Preventive maintenance is time-based or usage-based: it follows a fixed schedule (every 500 operating hours, every 3 months) regardless of actual equipment condition. Predictive maintenance is condition-based: it uses real-time monitoring data (vibration analysis, thermography, ultrasound, oil analysis) to intervene only when the equipment shows early signs of degradation. ISO 55001:2014 (Asset Management) recommends optimising the maintenance strategy based on criticality and failure mode. IgeraIndustria helps the Maintenance Director determine which strategy applies to each equipment class, what monitoring technology is appropriate for each failure mode, and how to document the decision rationale to satisfy ISO 55001 clause 6.2 (maintenance strategy objectives).

Critical spare parts management requires balancing two risks: production loss from stockout vs capital tied up in excess inventory. The Maintenance Director must classify components by: criticality (impact of failure on production and safety), lead time (time to procure if not in stock), failure probability (MTBF data from maintenance history) and cost of holding. ISO 55001:2014 clause 8.3 (outsourcing and supply chain) provides the framework. IgeraIndustria retrieves OEM recommendations for spare parts from technical manuals, cross-references your CMMS maintenance history to identify high-frequency failure components, and helps define minimum stock levels (reorder point, safety stock) for each critical item based on your actual failure data.

Statutory inspections in industrial facilities are governed by multiple royal decrees depending on the equipment type. Key regulations include: RD 1027/2007 (RITE) for HVAC systems with inspections every 2-4 years by authorised OCA; RD 769/1999 (pressure equipment) for pressure vessels, boilers and pipelines with periodic tests by OCA; RD 614/2001 for high-voltage electrical installations with annual OCA inspection; RD 1053/2014 for low-voltage electrical installations every 5 years in industrial premises. IgeraIndustria maintains the inspection calendar by equipment, cites the specific RD article for each obligation, identifies the type of authorised inspection body (OCA, OIT) required, and flags overdue inspections before they become a legal liability or audit finding.

IgeraIndustria operates as a knowledge layer on top of your existing CMMS, not a replacement for it. The Maintenance Director uploads the indexed documentation (OEM manuals, procedures, inspection reports) to IgeraIndustria, which processes it and makes it queryable via natural language. When a maintenance technician asks “What is the torque specification for the coupling on pump P-201?”, IgeraIndustria searches the OEM technical manual and returns the exact value with the manual reference. The CMMS continues to handle work orders, scheduling and history — IgeraIndustria provides the technical knowledge that the CMMS cannot store or make searchable. Compatible with SAP PM, Maximo, Infor EAM, eMaint and any CMMS that can export PDF reports.

Root cause analysis for recurring equipment failures follows a structured methodology to identify the underlying cause rather than treating symptoms. The most common methodologies in industrial maintenance are: 5 Whys (simple and fast for straightforward failures), Fishbone/Ishikawa (for failures with multiple contributing factors across Man, Machine, Method, Material, Environment), FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, for systematic proactive analysis of critical equipment) and 8D (for major failures requiring structured team response and supplier involvement). ISO 55001:2014 clause 10.1 requires the organisation to evaluate and correct nonconformities including equipment failures. IgeraIndustria helps select the right RCA methodology for each failure type, guides the analysis process, and generates the documented report structure required for the CMMS and for ISO 55001 audit evidence.
