Task Review and Approval

DOE-STD-1052-93

Similarity of task content may indicate the need to combine activities. Frequency of

task performance should be compared and adjustments to the frequency

recommended if a review of the component's history indicates a change is warranted.

Some of the selected tasks may be different in content or frequency from technical

safety requirements. For these situations, collection of operating data and the bases

developed during the analysis process may be of use in supporting a change request

to the technical safety requirements.

Proposed deletions should be reviewed by personnel responsible for tracking

commitments before the task is approved for deletion.

All data that has been used to determine the recommended PM task should be

properly recorded and stored so that it may be easily retrieved, used, and referenced

for future selections.

Task Review and Approval

The next step is to review and approve the recommended PM tasks and associated

implementing actions. Prior to approval, each PM task should be thoroughly

reviewed to validate the results of the LTA and to ensure the task may be properly

and economically performed. This review should involve operations, maintenance,

technical support, and other personnel who are familiar with the PM program goals,

objectives of the enhancement effort, the analysis techniques, and the specific

component. The review also should determine all actions needed to put the task into

effect. Examples of these actions may include the following:

adjusting PM task schedules

revising PM instructions

ordering new spare parts or adjusting inventory levels

purchasing or leasing diagnostic equipment

requesting deviation from commitments

updating vendor manuals

revising operation and maintenance procedures

training personnel
