Abstract

The objective of this article is to present the design of a preventive maintenance program based on inspection, measurement and control of the quality levels of the equipment and fault detection before focusing on an interruption or other intervention in its production process. Once the problem presented by the drinking water treatment plant (PTAP) of the Antonio José Camacho University Institution (UNIAJC) has been identified, it is identified that the institution performs maintenance activities; however, it does not have a structured program to guarantee the reliability of the equipment. The findings of the study were obtained from a methodology with a mixed approach, where the quantitative and qualitative methods allowed identifying the need to characterize and standardize the maintenance process in order to prevent deviations from it and obtain greater control through routes. of inspection, indicators and maintenance schedule of the PTAP, for which a structured preventive maintenance program is proposed in order to guarantee that the machines and infrastructure are available to work in optimal conditions.
