Is your airport still tracking maintenance schedules on spreadsheets and paper calendars? Every missed inspection risks regulatory fines, equipment failures, and operational disruptions that can cascade across your entire facility. OXmaint's preventive maintenance scheduling software automates PM planning across terminals, airside systems, and ground equipment—ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. Schedule a demo to see how automated PM scheduling can transform your airport maintenance operations.
The Cost of Reactive Maintenance
When airports defer preventive maintenance, they don't save money—they multiply future costs. Research consistently shows that reactive maintenance approaches create exponentially higher expenses while introducing safety risks and compliance gaps.

Expert Perspective
Industry leaders recognize that preventive maintenance scheduling is essential for operational excellence and regulatory compliance in aviation environments.
"
None of the airports we interviewed have systematic methods of quantifying the regular maintenance budget and the impact of delayed maintenance on airport assets. Airport asset managers need frameworks and tools to determine the impact of delayed maintenance on their costs. Without proper preventive maintenance scheduling, airports are essentially flying blind on their infrastructure investments.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of PM schedules can I create?
OXmaint supports time-based schedules (daily, weekly, monthly, annual), meter-based triggers (flight hours, cycles, mileage), and condition-based scheduling using IoT sensor data. You can create unlimited schedules across all asset categories with custom checklists for each.
How does OXmaint help with FAA Part 139 compliance?
The system includes pre-built PM templates aligned with FAA requirements for airfield lighting, pavement, signage, and safety equipment. Automated scheduling ensures inspections happen on time, and digital documentation provides audit-ready compliance records.
