Weekly Pulse Report

Week of March 1-7, 2026

Mid-size manufacturing plant - 8 weeks of CMMS data

Executive Summary

Your maintenance program is sliding. PM compliance dropped to 82% - the third consecutive week below benchmark - and reactive work climbed to 28%, driven by repeat failures on Line 3 and Pump 4B. The backlog grew for the fourth straight week with electrical work orders piling up fastest. The bright spot is Utilities, which continues to run clean at 96% PM compliance. The data says this: if the PM deferral pattern on Line 3 is not addressed this week, expect reactive work to cross 30% within two weeks.
