servicehistorie

Servicehistorie refers to the documented record of maintenance and service carried out on a vehicle, machinery, or other asset. It is a chronological account that documents work performed, parts replaced, inspections made, and issues identified over the asset’s life. The purpose of keeping a servicehistorie is to monitor wear, plan future interventions, support warranty claims, and provide evidence of proper upkeep for owners, buyers, and regulators.

In the automotive sector, the servicehistorie typically includes dates of service, mileage at service, service provider, work performed, parts used, costs, and the next due service. In other domains, such as industrial equipment, IT infrastructure, or facility management, the records may also contain technician notes, fault codes, uptime metrics, and service level agreements. Digital records stored in maintenance management systems or service portals are common, enabling easy sharing during sales or audits.

Best practices emphasize timely entry of information, standardized data fields, and secure storage. Records should be maintained across ownership changes and, where appropriate, made accessible to owners, service providers, and inspectors while protecting personal data. A complete and verifiable servicehistorie can enhance asset value, demonstrate compliance, and reduce risk by providing a clear history of maintenance actions.
