Bill Bomberger of York Consulting Group and an affiliate of member NuTec Design Associates/JDB Engineering led our discussion on Computerized Maintenance Management Systems.

Maintenance whether on your car or your business facility falls in two general categories; reactive or planned. Reactive, as so many of us know, means when it breaks, fix it. Planned is a little more organized and can be preventative or predictive. Preventative means you hope to prevent a failure; predictive means you know when it is likely to fail and take prior action.

A computer management maintenance system seeks to identify all the components of a maintenance program and arrange them in a way that assures timely action with people, tools and parts in the most efficient quantity. These systems may be on site or may be third party hosted. This allows companies of every size to enjoy the efficiencies of a programmed maintenance system.

Mark Warren and Marty Lurz had other commitments this morning but reported that crime is down in the precinct. Reminder: Precinct 7 is holding an open house. The Precinct 7 "Open House" will be held on Saturday, May 22, 2004, from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM at the station, located at 111 Wight Ave. (between McCormick Road and York Road). RAIN DATE is Saturday, June 5, 2004, same times. Citizens will get to meet the Commander, supervisors and officers of Precinct 7 "up close and personal." There will be food, give-away, raffles, tours of the station, and exhibits and demonstrations from BCoPD specialized units such as the Tactical Team, Aviation Unit, Marine Unit, K-9, Hereford Rescue Squad and others. This is a great opportunity to stop by, bring the kids and meet and talk with the officers who work in this area, and watch demonstrations by the specialized units. This event is co-sponsored by the Precinct 7 Police-Community Relations Council. Citizens, and Community/Neighborhood Association representatives are encouraged to attend and learn about the PER Council. Parking is free. For more information, contact Lt. Marty Lurz at 410-887-1820.
