The Maintenance Manager’s Blueprint for Lubrication Accountability

Managing a maintenance team isn’t just about scheduling tasks—it’s about ensuring every team member can perform, document, and follow through on critical activities consistently. Lubrication is unique: it involves frequent, repetitive tasks across many points, requires precise procedures, and often happens on rotating shifts or across multiple sites. Without clear accountability, even minor oversight like missed grease points or inconsistent oil changes can quickly escalate into inefficiencies, miscommunication, and operational risk.
