Free PM Service Schedule (A/B/C) Template

A tiered A/B/C preventive-maintenance schedule that groups tasks into escalating service levels by mileage interval: the standard way fleets organize light, intermediate, and major PM. Use it alongside our fleet calculators to size the costs this template tracks, or browse fleet management software when you are ready to automate the workflow. See all downloads in the template library, and check the fleet glossary for any unfamiliar terms.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Define what falls into PM-A (light/frequent), PM-B (intermediate), and PM-C (major/least frequent) for your fleet.

  2. 2

    Set the mileage interval for each level from the manufacturer schedule; lighter and heavier classes use different cadences.

  3. 3

    Remember that higher levels are cumulative: a PM-B service also performs the PM-A items, and PM-C performs A and B.

  4. 4

    Track each vehicle's last-completed and next-due mileage for all three levels.

  5. 5

    Sort by next-due to surface the unit closest to any service and schedule shop time accordingly.

PM Service Schedule (A/B/C) Template

Task-to-level grouping and intervals vary by OEM, vehicle class, and duty cycle: defer to the manufacturer schedule. The A/B/C split below is a common starting framework, not a fixed standard.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the questions buyers usually ask once the category, software, or rollout details start getting more specific.

A

It is a tiered preventive-maintenance system: PM-A is the light, frequent service (oil, fluids, quick inspection), PM-B adds intermediate items (brakes, filters, lube), and PM-C is the major service (driveline, coolant, deep inspection). Higher levels include everything in the lower ones.

A

Intervals depend entirely on the vehicle, its class, and its duty cycle, so always defer to the manufacturer schedule. The example intervals are a common framework but should be tuned to your OEM recommendations and operating conditions.

A

A flat schedule lists every task against its own interval; A/B/C bundles tasks into a few standard service visits so the shop and parts room can plan around three predictable jobs instead of dozens of one-off intervals.

A

Yes, but set separate interval rows for each class. Light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty vehicles hit each level at different mileages, so keep the task groupings consistent while varying the intervals per class.
