Whether you use this as a bookshelf reference or a daily guide in either implementing or fine tuning your own PM program, the book is easy reading and provides a wealth of concepts, actual examples and sound advice. I've had the opportunity to watch this program work and it's dynamite. However, stepping up to this level and creating a new way of operation can be painful. John Gross provides the hard earned experience and guidelines to make your effort more successful and help you avoid the mindfields of being on the cutting edge. This is must reading for any plant manager, plant engineer or plant operations manager. For those running warehouse operations, the concepts apply equally well for facility and equipment support.

Very clear and easy to follow

The Paperback version does not contain the CD ROM. I apologize for the omission. The omission was a decision by the publisher.

If you purchase the book and would like the CD, then send me an email and I will forward the files to you. (I only have the files in Adobe format at the moment.)

Excellent book that covers the fundamentals of PM. Easy to read, simple, and based on practical experience. Every plant manager should read and keep as a reference. Currently, i am in the process of setting up a maintenance program for 11 plants. I found this book helpful.

I have no prior knowledge on preventive manintenance. This book is very helpfull it covers the basics in a practical point of vue with a lot of helpfull tips. It even provide standard form to get started and to get a better picture.

If you are implementing a PM program, or just want a better understanding of the PM process, this is a great book. It not only walks you through the entire PM process, it also includes examples and photos of real implemented projects. This book is valuable tool for anyone implementing (or seeking to understand) a PM program.

The amazon website states that this item comes with a cd-rom. After a few attempts to find out wether or not it does come with a cd-rom,I came up empty No one seems to have an answer.
