Editorial standards
How we handle consolidation, sources, safety boundaries, updates and advertising.
1. Prefer useful cornerstone pages
We consolidate overlapping topics instead of publishing many slightly different versions of the same article. Legacy URLs are redirected to the closest substantive replacement.
2. Use primary references
Management standards and technical security guidance are checked against official standards bodies or government sources where practical.
3. Separate software features from management principles
CMMS, EAM, CAFM and IWMS products overlap. We describe functions and system roles rather than pretending every vendor uses the same boundaries.
4. Respect safety and jurisdiction
Industrial facilities are governed by site- and jurisdiction-specific requirements. We do not provide instructions that substitute for qualified electrical, fire/life-safety, structural, environmental, occupational-safety or engineering work.
5. Correct and update
We review standards-dependent material when key references change. Documentable factual errors can be reported through the limited contact channel.
6. Advertising stays separate
Advertisers do not choose our editorial conclusions, and a displayed ad is not an endorsement of a facility product or service.
