POB and MJOP for lift installations
A lift installation does not only need attention today. Maintenance, repairs, modernisation and sometimes replacement are all coming in the years ahead. I help draw up, assess and update your POB and MJOP.
Terms
What is a POB?
POB stands for Planmatig OnderhoudsBeheer, a performance-based maintenance specification. A POB sets out the agreements and requirements covering the performance and the maintenance of a lift installation. Your requirements and target performance levels are translated into concrete, measurable agreements with maintenance companies and other suppliers.
What is an MJOP?
An MJOP is a Meerjarenonderhoudsplan, a long-term maintenance plan. It sets out, across several years, which maintenance and which investments are to be expected.
In the plan
What an MJOP brings into view
- Periodic maintenance
- Major repairs
- Component replacement
- Modernisation
- Technical alterations
- Replacement of complete installations
Structure
From technical condition to a plan
A long-term plan is worth most when it is grounded in the real technical condition of the lift.
Step 01
A baseline survey as the foundation
A baseline survey to NEN 2767 records the condition of each installation component objectively. That is the foundation for a realistic plan.
Step 02
Setting the objectives
Your requirements around availability, comfort, safety and cost are translated into measurable performance levels in the POB.
Step 03
Drawing up the long-term plan
Maintenance, repairs, replacements and investments are mapped out for the years ahead, with the associated costs.
Step 04
Updating it periodically
The technical condition changes. The plan is therefore revised regularly so it keeps matching reality.
Budget
Realistic maintenance budgets
A good MJOP gives a clear view of the costs to come. That makes it easier to set budgets and to plan and spread investment.
Keeping your MJOP current
An MJOP is not a document you draw up once and then file away. The technical condition changes, so the plan needs updating regularly. A periodic baseline survey keeps it reliable.
A basis for bigger decisions
Once an installation approaches the end of its service life, the MJOP becomes the starting point for weighing up modernisation against replacement.

Frequently asked questions
About POB and MJOP
A POB is about the agreements: what performance you expect from the installation and from the maintenance company, and how that is measured. An MJOP is about time: which maintenance, replacements and investments are expected over the coming years and what they will cost. The POB steers day-to-day practice, the MJOP steers the budget.
Ten to fifteen years is usual, in line with the MJOP for the building as a whole. For installations nearing the end of their service life a longer horizon makes sense, because replacement then falls inside the planning period and can be provided for in good time.
Yes. I check whether the assumptions in the plan still match the real technical condition and whether the measures and figures included are realistic. Plans often turn out to be too optimistic, or too generous on components that need little attention in practice.
Not strictly, but without one an MJOP rests on assumptions and on whatever the maintenance provider supplies. With a condition survey to NEN 2767, the measures and the figures stand on an objective basis.

Does your MJOP still match the technical condition?
I am happy to look with you at whether your current plan still fits the real condition of your lifts.
