  Maintenance Management
----------------------

### Work orders

Quickly create, plan and track tasks that are preventative (scheduled) based either on time or meter readings, or reactive (unscheduled) such as breakdowns, retrofits, etc.

### Checklists

Create pre-defined or on-the-fly lists of things to be done. Maintenance checklists can also be added to task templates and used with preventative maintenance tasks to maintain consistency from work order to work order.

### Maintenance requests

Accept maintenance requests via a private link then choose to approve or decline them.

### Meter Readings

Task asset meter readings to provide insights into the health, performance, and condition of the assets. Meter readings can also drive *automations* that trigger preventative maintenance if the readings are outside of pre-defined thresholds.

### Preventative Maintenance (PM)

Set &amp; forget. Create one-off or recurring automations on any asset and let Maintainly create the PM work orders when they fall due. If based on a meter reading, readings outside of the defined thresholds will trigger that task automatically.

### Work time tracking

  Asset Management
