What are the Types of Work Orders?
Reactive Work Orders
Reactive work orders are used when emergency repairs are required, for example due to an unexpected breakdown. Although reactive maintenance isn't ideal, there will always be situations where it is needed, so it is important to have a work order management system in place to deal with these types of requests rapidly.


Preventive Work Orders
Planned Preventive Maintenance work orders are scheduled ahead of time, in order to reduce downtime and extend the lifespan of your equipment. Although arranged ahead of time, these work orders can still be difficult to stay on top of, which is why software that can automatically schedule maintenance based on a set timeframe or usage is ideal.
Inspection Work Orders
Inspection work orders are used to carry out routine checks on equipment. This is important for compliance, safety, and to optimise performance. With work order management software in place, you can automate and assign inspections to be done at regular intervals, with any findings logged against each asset so you can always see the full picture.


Corrective Work Orders
These types of work orders usually follow on from the routine inspections or preventive maintenance jobs. If a fault is identified which can't be fixed there and then, a new corrective work order will need to be created to ensure additional repairs are carried out. With Service Geeni, engineers can log any faults they find so that new work orders can be created instantly.
