MNT-03.3: Automated Support For Predictive Maintenance

MNT 5 — Medium Protect

Automated mechanisms exist to transfer predictive maintenance data to a computerized maintenance management system.

Control Question: Does the organization use automated mechanisms to transfer predictive maintenance data to a computerized maintenance management system?

Capability Maturity Model

Level 0 — Not Performed

There is no evidence of a capability to transfer predictive maintenance data to a computerized maintenance management system.

Level 1 — Performed Informally

C|P-CMM1 is N/A, since a structured process is required to transfer predictive maintenance data to a computerized maintenance management system.

Level 2 — Planned & Tracked

C|P-CMM2 is N/A, since a well-defined process is required to transfer predictive maintenance data to a computerized maintenance management system.

Level 3 — Well Defined

Maintenance (MNT) efforts are standardized across the organization and centrally managed, where technically feasible, to ensure consistency. CMM Level 3 control maturity would reasonably expect all, or at least most, the following criteria to exist:

  • IT/cybersecurity personnel develop and disseminate formal practices to implement enterprise-wide capability to conduct secure and timely technology asset-specific maintenance operations, including preventative and reactionary maintenance operations.
  • Technology asset-related maintenance operations are centralized in terms of change management and governance. Local/regional practices fall under the broader enterprise-wide technology asset maintenance program.
  • Facilities management uses an enterprise-wide process to facilitate the secure and timely implementation of non-IT maintenance operations, including preventative and reactionary maintenance operations. Local/regional practices fall under the broader enterprise-wide facilities management program.
  • A Change Control Board (CCB), or similar function, centrally manages the process of IT and non-IT maintenance operations to reduce the chance of business interruptions from maintenance operations.
Level 4 — Quantitatively Controlled

See C|P-CMM3. There are no defined C|P-CMM4 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a quantitatively-controlled process is not necessary to transfer predictive maintenance data to a computerized maintenance management system.

Level 5 — Continuously Improving

See C|P-CMM4. There are no defined C|P-CMM5 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a continuously-improving process is not necessary to transfer predictive maintenance data to a computerized maintenance management system.

Assessment Objectives

  1. MNT-03.3_A01 automated mechanisms used to transfer predictive maintenance data to a maintenance management system are defined.
  2. MNT-03.3_A02 predictive maintenance data is transferred to a maintenance management system using automated mechanisms.
