Preview Questions Maintenance Planner | Role Specific Skill

Question 1: What is the primary benefit of using a computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) for spare parts management in the chemical industry?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

It reduces the need for real-time data and historical usage analysis

It eliminates the need for preventive maintenance and parts tracking

It simplifies the manual ordering process without providing inventory insights

It helps track parts usage, manage inventory levels, and optimize reorder schedules

Question 2: How should a Maintenance Planner handle maintenance procedures for equipment with high operational complexity?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By simplifying procedures to reduce complexity and ensure faster execution

By ignoring technical complexities and relying on generic procedures

By developing detailed, step-by-step procedures that break down each task, ensuring thorough understanding and clear instructions

By excluding operational nuances to save time on procedure development

Question 3: What role does predictive maintenance play in preventive maintenance scheduling in chemical plants?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Predictive maintenance replaces preventive maintenance by waiting for failures

Predictive maintenance only applies to electrical systems and not chemical processes

Predictive maintenance increases downtime by relying on sensors that often fail

Predictive maintenance complements preventive maintenance by using data to predict failures and optimize scheduling

Question 4: What role do contingency funds play in cost estimation for high-risk maintenance activities in chemical plants?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

Contingency funds should be minimal and not exceed 5% of the estimated cost

Contingency funds are irrelevant and can be excluded from cost estimates

Contingency funds account for unexpected expenses, ensuring that all potential risks are financially covered

Contingency funds are only required for major, non-routine maintenance tasks

Question 5: What is the best way to incorporate industry standards into maintenance procedure development for chemical plant equipment?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By referencing relevant codes and standards (e.g., API, ASME) and aligning procedures with best practices

By following generic maintenance guidelines without considering specific industry standards

By simplifying the procedures and avoiding complex standards to save time

By ignoring industry standards and focusing on company-specific procedures only

Question 6: How can resource allocation in preventive maintenance be optimized through software solutions in a chemical plant?

Which action should you take?

Choose only one option

By allocating resources at random intervals to prevent bias in scheduling

By eliminating technology and focusing on human judgment for resource allocation

By utilizing maintenance management systems (CMMS) to optimize resource allocation based on data-driven insights

By using manual records to allocate resources based on a simple schedule
