Who This Template Is For
Maintenance managers, facility supervisors, plant engineers, and operations directors managing equipment across manufacturing, warehousing, retail, hospitality, and healthcare facilities.
Why This Matters
Maintenance is 70% reactive because nobody can see what's due, what's overdue, and what's been done. Equipment history is scattered across notebooks and filing cabinets. When something breaks, you don't know when it was last serviced — or by whom.
What Changes When You Go Digital
Storecall's asset management links every piece of equipment to its maintenance history. Scheduled maintenance appears automatically with reminders. Technicians log work with photos and parts used. Dashboards show planned vs reactive maintenance ratios across your entire asset base.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should an equipment maintenance log track?
An effective maintenance log should capture the equipment name, asset number, and location; the type of maintenance (preventive, corrective, or emergency); date and time of service; work performed and parts replaced; the name of the technician; and the next scheduled service date. This template covers all of these fields.
How do I move from reactive to preventive maintenance?
Start by logging all equipment and their recommended service intervals. This template helps you build that discipline on paper. Storecall takes it further — scheduling maintenance automatically, alerting you before items are due, escalating overdue tasks, and tracking your planned-vs-reactive ratio over time.
Can I link maintenance logs to specific equipment assets?
On paper, you track by equipment name manually. In Storecall, every asset is registered with full lifecycle data. Maintenance logs, inspections, and fault reports are all linked to the asset record — giving you complete history at a glance.
