Planned Preventative Maintenance Software

Maintenance Management Software for the Energy Sector

Gain full visibility of asset maintenance status across your operation — scheduling tasks, managing stock, tracking equipment condition, and maintaining a complete audit record from a single platform.

Why Digital PPM

Poor maintenance visibility leads to unplanned downtime

Unplanned downtime in the energy sector is costly — both financially and in terms of safety and regulatory compliance. Many operators manage maintenance programmes across spreadsheets, paper job cards, and standalone systems, making it difficult to see what's overdue, what's in progress, and whether the right people with the right competencies are doing the work.

Elisian's Planned & Preventative Maintenance module gives your maintenance teams and management a single, real-time view of asset maintenance status — with task scheduling, competency management, stock control, and equipment monitoring all connected in one platform.

By integrating PPM with Permit to Work and Site & Process Safety in the same system, Elisian ensures that planned maintenance is always properly authorised and controlled — eliminating the gaps that exist when maintenance management sits in a separate system.

Core Capabilities

Everything you need to manage planned maintenance

Elisian's PPM module covers task scheduling, equipment management, and stock control — all connected to the broader operational assurance platform.

  • Maintenance Task Scheduling

    Schedule and manage maintenance tasks across all assets — with competency-based assignment ensuring the right personnel are allocated to each job and their qualifications are verified before work begins.

  • Equipment Management

    Real-time asset register with configurable condition monitoring thresholds — providing early warning of equipment issues before they escalate to unplanned failures.

  • Stock Management

    Manage spare parts and consumables inventory across all assets — with stock level monitoring, replenishment alerts, and full traceability of parts used in each maintenance job.

  • Compliance Reporting

    Generate maintenance completion reports, overdue task summaries, and competency records on demand — providing the audit evidence required for regulatory inspections and asset owner reviews.

  • Maintenance History

    Complete maintenance history for every asset — recording what was done, by whom, when, and using which parts. Supports root cause analysis, warranty claims, and asset life planning.

  • PTW Integration

    Maintenance tasks are connected to the Permit to Work module — ensuring planned work is always properly authorised before it begins and that maintenance and safety teams share a single operational picture.

How It Works

From scheduling to completion — fully tracked

Elisian guides your maintenance teams through a structured, consistent process — from task creation and assignment through to completion and sign-off.

  1. Task Creation & Scheduling

    Maintenance tasks are created against specific assets with defined frequencies, competency requirements, and priority levels. The system generates scheduled tasks automatically and flags overdue items to supervisors.

  2. Assignment & Authorisation

    Tasks are assigned to personnel whose competency records are verified against the requirements of the job. Where a Permit to Work is required, the maintenance task is linked to the permit before work begins.

  3. Execution & Recording

    Technicians record work completed, parts used, and any findings or defects directly in the system — with supporting photos and documentation attached to the maintenance record.

  4. Review & Reporting

    Maintenance managers get a real-time view of task completion rates, overdue items, and equipment condition across all assets. Full compliance reports are available on demand for regulatory review.

FAQ

Common questions about planned preventative maintenance software

What is planned preventative maintenance software?
PPM software is a digital system for scheduling, managing, and recording maintenance activities on industrial assets. It replaces paper programmes and spreadsheets with structured digital workflows — ensuring tasks are completed on time, by competent personnel, with a full audit record.
Why do energy operators need digital maintenance management?
Energy assets require rigorous scheduled maintenance to operate safely and reliably. Digital PPM software gives operators visibility of maintenance status across all assets, reduces missed or overdue tasks, and provides the audit evidence needed to demonstrate compliance with regulatory and asset owner requirements.
What is the difference between planned and preventative maintenance?
Planned maintenance is scheduled in advance regardless of equipment condition. Preventative maintenance focuses on preventing failures before they occur, based on time intervals or usage thresholds. Effective PPM programmes combine both, using asset data and maintenance history to optimise scheduling and minimise unplanned downtime.
Can Elisian's PPM software integrate with Permit to Work?
Yes. Elisian's PPM module sits within the same platform as Permit to Work and Site & Process Safety — so maintenance tasks can be linked directly to active permits. This ensures all planned work is properly authorised before it begins and gives operations teams a complete picture in one place.
How does Elisian handle competency management for maintenance tasks?
Each maintenance task type in Elisian can have defined competency requirements. When a task is assigned, the system verifies that the assigned personnel hold the required qualifications and certifications — preventing unqualified individuals from being allocated to jobs that require specific competencies.
