1. A method comprising:
- maintaining a stress layout representing a physical location, the stress layout including a grid system having a plurality of cells;
calculating, by one or more processors, a maintenance indicator value for each cell in which a fixed object is located, the maintenance indicator value representing a stress level applied to the fixed object;
determining whether the maintenance indicator value exceeds a maintenance threshold that indicates when maintenance should be performed on the fixed object; and
automatically generating, without human intervention, a maintenance order that triggers maintenance for the fixed object in response to the maintenance indicator value exceeding the maintenance threshold.

Abstract
Systems and methods to provide proactive adaptive equipment maintenance. In example embodiments, a stress layout representing a physical location is maintained. The stress layout includes a grid system having a plurality of cells. A maintenance indicator value for each cell in which a fixed object is located is calculated. This maintenance indicator value represents a stress level applied to the fixed object. A determination whether the maintenance indicator value exceeds a maintenance threshold for the fixed object is performed. Based on the determining that the maintenance indicator value exceeds the maintenance threshold, automatic generation of a maintenance order for the fixed object is triggered.
