DEFINITION DESCRIPTION
Integrated Maintenance Program
(IMP)
IMP is a recurring state-of-the-art, reliability-centered inspection, testing,
maintenance and repair program that determines best practices for managing
the functions and consequences of failures of facilities equipment and system
components. IMP encompasses accepted commercial practices, including
reactive, preventive, predictive and proactive maintenance, into one optimal
program. The IMP approach gives the Contractor full responsibility to
maintain systems and equipment and perform repairs whenever necessary to
ensure equipment and systems are operational and remain in a constant state
of readiness. Service calls will not be issued for accomplishment of repairs
on systems and equipment maintained under IMP.

entire unit or system if beyond economical repair. The intent of repair is to
have the equipment at normal working condition.
REPLACEMENT Replacement, as a distinct work element, is confined to a program of planned
replacement of a facility or its components. It may be further limited to
major components such as air conditioning compressors, furnaces or hot
