True or False: The PMS schedule is used to verify that the MRC is up to date.

• A. True
• B. Not sure
• C. Partially
• D. False

Answer: (D)

The PMS schedule focuses on when maintenance tasks are due and carried out, not on verifying that the Maintenance Requirement Card is up to date. The MRC is the document that lists what maintenance actions are required and their intervals, and it gets updated through change control and configuration management whenever designs, equipment, or recommendations change. Verifying that the MRC is current is a separate process that ensures the card itself reflects the latest requirements, while the PMS schedule uses whatever current MRC is available to plan and track due dates. So the statement is false. For example, if a revision alters a task interval, updating the MRC is necessary first; the PMS schedule would then need to be updated accordingly, but the act of confirming the MRC’s currency is not handled by the PMS schedule itself.
