In 1951, the US Army began publishing PS Magazine. The idea was to publish a magazine about Preventive Maintenance that soldiers would actually want to read. They found an artist named Will Eisner and his company began creating artwork for the magazine. Eisner believed that comics had teaching potential and convinced many talented artists to help him. Each month contained a single-frame comic and an accompanying limerick called "Joe's Dope Sheet". Every month followed the story of Joe, a soldier who ignores preventive maintenance and learns of its importance in the end.

Excuse me, this is not what I ordered

Asset-intensive companies rely heavily on BoMs for work orders and maintenance operations. The accuracy of your work order depends on having the correct parts and quickly identifying those parts. Time is money for every organization. Therefore, maintenance personnel do not need to be spending unnecessary extra time trying to locate equipment. Having a BoM is only half the battle. BoMs are often laced with misinformation, missing parts, and errors which hinders maintenance and reliability operations.
