Preventive Maintenance Schedule 🛠️

okay bestie, this note is the current IMP/TIP Preventive Maintenance schedule 🫶 PM happens monthly, and each machine usually gets the same slot every month. wherever possible we line it up with the PM time for the Host(s) at the site, because it's giving efficiency 💅✨

sometimes PMs have to be rescheduled because of network connectivity stuff or other reasons 😭 whenever that happens, we'll let everyone know asap through two things: TIP NEWS and a Journal note (NOT an RFC!!) to Technical Liaisons 📣 any permanent changes to the schedule get announced through the RFC mechanism 🔥

all times below are Eastern Time 🕐
