dedicated teams, the unsung heroes, responsible for making sure these machines work
smoothly. We call it maintenance operations, and it’s a big deal.

But here's the catch – even in the best-run operations, you’ll almost always find a
Maintenance Backlog.

What is a Maintenance Backlog?


A maintenance backlog is the "to-do" list for maintenance teams. It's a collection of
maintenance tasks, repairs, and work orders that have piled up over time and need
attention. These tasks range from small repairs to performing critical safety checks. The
‘backlog’ represents a ‘logjam’ or accumulation of work that needs to be completed.

Maintenance backlogs exist in all industries, from manufacturing plants and facilities
management to healthcare institutions and transportation services. They arise from a
multitude of reasons, including resource constraints, poor planning, inefficient workflows
and processes, and unexpected breakdowns. In essence, they represent the gap
between the maintenance work that needs to be done and the resources available to do
it.

Types of Maintenance Backlogs


1. Preventive Maintenance Backlog

Preventive maintenance backlogs consist of tasks that are planned in advance to


prevent equipment failures or performance degradation. These tasks are typically
scheduled at regular intervals and aim to keep machinery and systems in optimal
working condition. Common examples include routine equipment inspections,
lubrication, and calibration.

2. Corrective Maintenance Backlog

Corrective maintenance backlogs involve tasks that are reactive in nature, addressing
issues that have arisen unexpectedly. These tasks are often triggered by equipment
breakdowns, malfunctions, or safety concerns. Corrective maintenance is performed to
fix problems and restore equipment to its normal operational state.

1/19/24, 3:45 PM Strategies to Clear Maintenance Backlog
A maintenance backlog is comprised of the following key components:
Solutions  Industries  Blog REQUEST A DEMO

1. Work Orders
These are requests for maintenance tasks or repairs. Work orders contain details such as
the type of work needed, the location, asset information, parts needed, assigned
technician or vendor, the priority level, and a description of the problem.

2. Task Descriptions
Each item in the backlog should have a clear and detailed description of what needs to
be done. This ensures that maintenance teams understand the scope of work.

3. Priority Levels
Not all backlog items are equally important. Prioritizing tasks based on factors like safety,
criticality, and resource availability is important. High-priority items should be addressed
first.

4. Resource Requirements
This includes information on the tools, equipment, and materials needed to complete
each task. It's essential for planning and allocating resources effectively.

5. Due Dates
Some backlog items might have specific deadlines. For instance, preventive
maintenance tasks may need to be completed at regular intervals within a specified
timeframe. Critical work should be addressed ASAP.

6. Status
Tracking the status of each backlog item (e.g., pending approval, pending review, in
progress, on hold, waiting for parts, completed) helps in monitoring progress and
ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.

7. History
Maintaining a historical record of completed backlog items can provide valuable
insights into maintenance trends and help in future planning.

8. Cost Estimates
Solutions  Industries  Blog REQUEST A DEMO
In some cases, it's useful to estimate the cost associated with each task. This helps with
budgeting and resource allocation.

A visual representation of a simple maintenance


backlog table might look like this:

What Causes Maintenance Backlogs?


Understanding the root causes of maintenance backlogs is the first step towards
effective management. Here are some common reasons why maintenance backlogs
accumulate:

1. Lack of Resources
One of the primary reasons for maintenance backlogs is the shortage of essential
resources. Lack of resources comes in many forms:

Personnel Shortages: If there aren't enough skilled maintenance technicians to


handle the workload, tasks pile up.

Tools and Equipment: Inadequate access to necessary tools and equipment can slow
down maintenance work.

Materials and Spare Parts: Insufficient supplies can lead to delays as maintenance
teams wait for necessary components.

Addressing resource shortages is important to prevent backlogs from growing


unchecked.

1/19/24, 3:45 PM Strategies to Clear Maintenance Backlog

2. Poor Planning
Solutions  Industries  Blog REQUEST A DEMO
Effective maintenance requires meticulous planning, and when this planning is lacking,
backlogs increase:

Inadequate Scheduling: Failing to schedule regular maintenance or inspections can


lead to unexpected breakdowns and failures that require a shift in resources and
disrupts schedules and plans.

Unclear Procedures: If maintenance protocols are unclear or missing, technicians


may not know how to tackle tasks efficiently.

Comprehensive planning and scheduling are essential to ensure that maintenance


activities are proactive rather than reactive.

3. Equipment Aging
As machinery and equipment age, they often require more attention and maintenance.
Here's how aging equipment contributes to backlogs:

Increased Breakdowns: Older equipment is more prone to breakdowns, requiring


more corrective maintenance.

Reduced Efficiency: Aging machinery may not perform as efficiently, requiring more
frequent adjustments.

Regular inspections and preventive maintenance can mitigate the impact of aging
equipment on backlogs.

4. Reactive Maintenance
One of the most significant contributors to maintenance backlogs is the practice of
reactive maintenance, where maintenance is only performed when something breaks
down. Reactive maintenance leads to:

Unplanned Downtime: Reactive maintenance often results in unexpected downtime,


leading to delays in other tasks.

Higher Costs: Repairing equipment after a breakdown is usually more costly than
planned preventive maintenance.

Shifting from a reactive to a proactive maintenance approach can help prevent


backlogs by addressing issues before they become major problems.

Impact of Unmanaged Backlogs


Solutions  Industries  Blog REQUEST A DEMO

When maintenance backlogs are left unattended, they can have severe repercussions
on operations and the bottom line.

1. Increased Downtime
A primary consequence of unmanaged maintenance backlogs is increased downtime.
When maintenance tasks are delayed or neglected, the probability of equipment
breakdowns rises. This leads to:

Production Halts: Machinery breakdowns can halt production lines, causing delays
and revenue loss. TABLE OF CONTENTS 
Resource Inefficiency: Unplanned downtime forces maintenance teams to shift from
planned tasks to emergency repairs, disrupting their schedules.

The longer backlogs go unmanaged, the more downtime an organization is likely to


experience, affecting overall productivity.

Case Study: NHS Maintenance Backlog


costs £10 Billion
The NHS (National Health Service) in the United Kingdom had been grappling with a
significant maintenance backlog. This backlog involved maintenance and repairs
required in NHS facilities, including hospitals and healthcare infrastructure.

The backlog was a result of various factors, including:

Aging Infrastructure: Many NHS facilities were operating with outdated infrastructure
and equipment, which required maintenance and modernization.

Financial Constraints: The NHS faced budget constraints, making it challenging to


allocate sufficient funds for maintenance and repairs.

Increased Demand: The COVID-19 pandemic placed additional strain on healthcare


facilities, increasing the need for maintenance and repairs.

Prioritization: Critical healthcare services took precedence over maintenance


activities, leading to the accumulation of backlog requests, work orders and projects.

According to the Guardian, the NHS would have to spend £10.2bn to bring rundown
healthcare facilities and equipment up to standard to assess and clear their
maintenance backlogs.

How to Assess Your Maintenance


Backlog?

Measuring the Size of the Maintenance Backlog


Number of Pending Work Orders: Counting the number of pending work orders is a
straightforward way to measure the size of your maintenance backlog. Each work
order represents a specific task or repair that needs attention. By tracking the number
of open work orders, you can assess the volume of work that has accumulated.

Value of Outstanding Repairs: Another valuable metric for assessing your backlog is
the total value of outstanding repairs. This involves attaching a cost estimate to each
pending task, including labor, materials, and any other associated expenses.
Summing up these cost estimates provides an estimate of the financial impact of the
backlog.

Prioritizing Maintenance Tasks


Effectively managing a maintenance backlog requires prioritizing tasks to allocate
resources wisely and address the most critical issues first. Here are key factors to
consider when prioritizing maintenance tasks:

Criticality: Task criticality assesses the impact of a maintenance task on overall


operations. Critical tasks are those that involve assets where failure or downtime have
severe consequences, such as safety hazards, production stoppages, or regulatory
violations. Prioritize tasks with higher criticality to mitigate risks.

Safety: Tasks related to safety concerns, whether for equipment or personnel, should
be addressed immediately. Neglecting safety-related tasks can lead to accidents
and injuries, and legal ramifications.

Resource Availability: Assess the availability of necessary resources, including skilled


personnel, tools, and materials, when prioritizing tasks. Ensure that you have the

Strategies for Managing Maintenance


Backlogs with a CMMS

1. Establishing Clear Processes


1.1 Work Order Creation and Management

Clear and efficient work order processes are the foundation of effective backlog
management. Implementing a standardized system for creating, tracking, and
managing work orders ensures that tasks don’t fall through the cracks. This includes
capturing important details such as description, priority, due date, asset details, and
resource requirements. Modern Computerized Maintenance Management Systems
(CMMS) can help in automating and documenting these processes, making work order
management a breeze.

A CMMS streamlines work order creation and management by providing a centralized


platform where all work orders can be generated, tracked, and managed from request
creation, assignment, to completion. Technicians can easily create, update and close
out work orders with all details. Even better, Mobile Apps ensure that techs are notified in
real-time and can perform tasks, access files, and log activity in the field.

2.2 Equipment and Tools


Solutions  Industries  Blog REQUEST A DEMO
Equipping the maintenance team with the right tools and equipment is a must.
Inadequate tools can slow down tasks and lead to inefficiencies. Regular maintenance
of tools and timely replenishment of consumables like lubricants and spare parts are
also important. Make sure your team has access to what they need when they need it.

CMMS systems include inventory management features. This allows organizations to


keep track of tools, spare parts, and consumables. When a maintenance task is
scheduled, the CMMS can automatically check inventory levels and generate purchase
orders for necessary materials, ensuring that technicians have access to the required
tools and supplies. A CMMS allows managers to set min and max levels for inventory so
when levels are low, notifications for restocking are sent to the right people.

3. Predictive Maintenance
3.1 Condition Monitoring

Why wait for something to break when you can catch issues early? Condition monitoring
involves continuously assessing the health of equipment through techniques like
vibration analysis, infrared thermography, and ultrasonic testing. This proactive
approach helps identify potential problems before they escalate.

Many CMMS platforms can be integrated with IoT sensors. These sensors continuously
monitor the condition of equipment. When abnormal readings are detected, the CMMS
can automatically generate work orders for further inspection or maintenance, allowing
organizations to adopt a more proactive approach to maintenance.

3.2 Data Analytics

Analyzing historical maintenance data can unveil patterns and trends that guide
decision-making. Predictive maintenance helps forecast equipment failures, allowing for
timely preventive action. Modern maintenance relies heavily on data-driven insights.

CMMS systems collect a wealth of historical maintenance data. Advanced CMMS


platforms often include built-in analytics tools or can be integrated with business
analytics (BI) software. This enables organizations to analyze maintenance data to
identify trends, predict equipment failures, and optimize maintenance schedules for
more efficient backlog management.

checklists are key for an effective preventive maintenance program.

CMMS software allows organizations to schedule routine inspections and maintenance


tasks at specific intervals. The CMMS can automatically generate work orders for these
tasks, ensuring that inspections are conducted on time and documented properly.

4.2 Scheduled Maintenance

Planned maintenance, carried out at specified intervals, can significantly extend the
lifespan of equipment and reduce unplanned downtime. Develop comprehensive
maintenance schedules that account for the manufacturer's recommendations,
equipment usage patterns, and historical performance data.

CMMS platforms excel at managing scheduled maintenance. By entering equipment


specifications and manufacturer recommendations, the CMMS can generate
maintenance schedules that account for usage patterns and historical performance
data. This ensures that preventive maintenance is performed at the optimal times to
extend equipment lifespan and reduce downtime.

5. Outsourcing Options
5.1 Contract Maintenance

Contracting maintenance services to specialized firms can be a strategic move. These


firms often have expertise in specific equipment or industries, and they can handle
routine tasks, freeing up your in-house team for more critical work. It's a way to scale
resources when needed.

Best Practices for Clearing Maintenance


Backlogs
Clearing maintenance backlogs is an ongoing effort that requires a mix of data-driven
decision-making, continuous improvement, and a dedicated workforce.

1. Establishing Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)


Backlog Size: Begin by quantifying the size of your backlog. Count the number of
pending work orders or tasks. This metric provides a clear benchmark for your
progress.

Backlog Value: Evaluate the financial impact of the backlog. Calculate the total cost
of outstanding repairs, including labor, materials, and any associated expenses.

Backlog Aging: Analyze how long each task has been in the backlog. Categorize
items based on their age to identify areas requiring immediate attention and those
that can be managed over time.

Completion Rate: Measure the percentage of completed work orders against the
total number generated. This KPI reflects your team's efficiency in addressing backlog
items.

By tracking these KPIs, you can monitor your progress, identify bottlenecks, and make
data-driven decisions to expedite backlog clearance.

2. Continuous Improvement
Root Cause Analysis: Instead of treating the symptoms, delve deeper to identify the
root causes of your maintenance backlogs. Is it due to resource shortages, inefficient
processes, or unexpected breakdowns? Implement root cause analysis to tackle
these issues at their source.

Lessons Learned: After successfully clearing a backlog, conduct post-mortems to


assess what worked well and what could be improved. Document these lessons
learned to refine your backlog management strategies. Continuously adapt and
evolve your approach based on these insights.

3. Training and Skill Development
