Condition-Based Maintenance That Starts With the Meter

A calendar does not know how hard the machine worked last month. MPACT CMMS by MPulse Software triggers scheduled maintenance from cumulative meters, so the pump that ran 900 hours gets serviced and the one that ran 90 does not.

What Is Condition-Based Maintenance?

Condition-based maintenance schedules work from the state of the asset instead of from a date on a calendar. The most common and most reliable version of it runs on meters: runtime hours, mileage, cycle counts, throughput. In MPACT, a cumulative meter reaching its interval converts the scheduled maintenance into a live work order and notifies the assigned tech. Condition readings like temperature, vibration, and pressure are captured and displayed on the asset record.

Let the Equipment Set the Interval

Cumulative meters trigger the work

Runtime hours, mileage, cycle counts, and any other cumulative meter you track. Set the interval once. When the meter reaches it, the work order is issued. Unlimited meters per asset.

Readings from people or from machines

A technician enters a reading from the panel, or the reading arrives through the REST API from a sensor, a PLC, or a building system. Same record either way. See integrations.

Condition data lives on the asset

Temperature, vibration, and pressure readings are captured and stored against the asset and available in views and graphical reports. You can see the trend and act on it. Today those readings inform the decision. They do not pull the trigger.

The work order writes itself

Hitting the interval converts the scheduled maintenance into a live work order and notifies the person assigned to it. Nobody watches a runtime gauge and nobody keys in the job. The asset asks for service and the request reaches the tech. See preventive maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Condition-Based Maintenance

Can MPACT open a work order when a cumulative meter reading reading goes over an interval?

Yes. Cumulative meters are a different story. A runtime, mileage, or cycle count meter hitting its interval auto-converts the scheduled maintenance into a work order and notifies the assigned tech, with no one touching it.

Where do meter readings come from?

Either a person or a machine. Technicians enter readings in the field, and MPACT’s documented REST API accepts readings from sensors, PLCs, ERP systems, and building automation. Most operations run both.

Is this the same as predictive maintenance?

No. Predictive maintenance forecasts a failure before the data shows a problem. Condition-based maintenance acts on what the data already shows. MPACT does the second one, and does it on meters you can verify.
