OEM technical manual and preventive maintenance plan in 3 seconds.

A CMMS (Computerised Maintenance Management System) is a transactional system designed to create work orders, schedule preventive maintenance tasks and track spare parts inventory. It stores what was done and when, but it does not contain the engineering knowledge that explains how to do it. IgeraIndustria is a knowledge retrieval layer that makes your OEM manuals, FMEA reports, inspection procedures and maintenance engineering standards instantly queryable in plain language. The two systems are complementary: IgeraIndustria answers “how do I perform the overhaul of compressor C-201 according to the OEM manual?” while the CMMS records that the overhaul work order was completed. Many clients use IgeraIndustria alongside SAP PM, Maximo or Fiix without any integration required.

Statutory inspection requirements depend on the country, equipment type and pressure/energy class. In Spain and the EU, mandatory inspections include: pressure vessels and boilers (ITC EP-1 to EP-6 under RD 2060/2008), lifting equipment (cranes, hoists — RD 1644/2008 and ITC MIE-AEM-2), electrical installations (ITC-BT under RD 842/2002), fire protection systems (CTE-DB-SI and RIPCI), and gas installations (ITC-ICG). IgeraIndustria indexes all applicable statutory inspection procedures, frequency requirements and documentation checklists, so the maintenance engineer can query exactly which inspection certificate is due for a specific piece of equipment and what documentation the authorised inspection body will verify.

FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis) is a systematic methodology for identifying potential failure modes of equipment or processes, their causes and their effects on plant operation. The Risk Priority Number (RPN) is calculated as: RPN = Severity (S) x Occurrence (O) x Detectability (D), where each factor is rated on a scale of 1–10. A high RPN indicates a failure mode that requires priority action. In maintenance FMEA (also called FMECA when criticality is added), the RPN guides maintenance task selection: failure modes with high RPN typically receive condition-based monitoring, redundancy or preventive replacement tasks. IgeraIndustria indexes your FMEA worksheets and allows maintenance engineers to query which failure modes on a specific equipment tag have an RPN above a defined threshold and what the recommended maintenance action is.

Predictive maintenance (PdM) relies on condition monitoring data to detect anomalies before they cause failure. IgeraIndustria indexes the alarm thresholds, trending criteria and corrective action procedures associated with your PdM programme. For vibration analysis, maintenance engineers can query the ISO 10816/20816 vibration severity thresholds for a specific machine class, the frequency spectrum signatures associated with bearing defects or imbalance for equipment in your plant, and the corrective action procedure when a threshold is exceeded. For thermography, IgeraIndustria retrieves the inspection procedure, the maximum temperature differential criteria for electrical panels and rotating equipment, and the criticality classification that determines response time. Links the PdM finding to the FMEA failure mode it detects.

ISO 55001:2014 is the international standard for Asset Management Systems. It specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and improving a management system for physical assets (plant, equipment, infrastructure). The key requirements relevant to maintenance engineering include: asset management policy and objectives aligned with organizational goals (cl.4–6), risk-based decision making for maintenance strategies (cl.6.1), lifecycle cost analysis for asset acquisition, maintenance and disposal (cl.8), performance measurement including MTBF, MTTR and OEE (cl.9.1), and continual improvement of maintenance effectiveness (cl.10). IgeraIndustria indexes your Asset Management Plan and links maintenance procedures to the specific ISO 55001 clauses they satisfy, supporting certification audits and management reviews.

Spare parts criticality classification determines which components require on-site stock (insurance spares) versus just-in-time procurement. IgeraIndustria indexes your criticality matrices, equipment bill of materials (BOM), OEM recommended spare parts lists and supplier lead times. Maintenance engineers can query the criticality classification of any spare part, the minimum stock level defined in the spare parts management procedure, whether a specific component has an approved alternative supplier and what the OEM-recommended replacement interval is. For critical rotating equipment, IgeraIndustria also retrieves the capital spare strategy (e.g., strategic spare rotor assembly for the main compressor train) and the storage requirements for long-term preservation.
