Maintenance Procedures - Best Practice consists of?
(OP)
I am presently looking at the maintenance procedure setup in my plant. The question is, are we doing things correctly? What is the best practice for maintenance procedures? How far does one go into a procedure......, before it actually becomes a training document?
The bottom line, what are the best practice elements of a good maintenance procedure?

Step two is to have experienced maint people write the procedures or floor oriented engineers.
Step three is to have a review process so the right departments have a chance to comment on the drafts, i.e safety, engineering, environmental, etc.
Step four is two have a new procedure validated in the field before it is permanently issued.
This is nuclear style of writing procedures and can be expensive but is high in quality.
If you go into too much detail you may insult your trades staff, not enough you will have an incident. You have to balance it to your people and the importance of the job.
