If you are reading this then you are probably aware of CMMS and what it is, but what are the benefits of implementing this program at your own maintenance facility?
Actually, the benefits are many and here are just a few:
Work Load and Time Management
CMMS allows you to manage time easier because you won't have to have employees stopping by the shop or having to come to the office for work orders since everything is done via the remote application. You can also set up work in advance so even if you are away, you know that the work is being delegated and done when it is supposed to be completed.
Costs
Saving money is always a priority no matter what kind of facility you run and whether it is your own company or you work for someone else, being able to track your preventative maintenance tasks and use preventative maintenance strategies instead of corrective strategies, which are more costly in the long run. Other cost saving factors include having less of an inventory stockpile by being able to track what you have and being able to track your capital equipment investments. In fact, you can even use the software to help predict when equipment needs replacement instead of repairs.
Scheduling
A Computerized Maintenance Management Software system lets you schedule easier than ever because everything is in place to send out work tasks, do preventative maintenance, and more. What is even more beneficial is that you can do this from any place with an Internet connection since everything is web based. If you forget to schedule a task, you won't have to go back to work or call anyone for it to get done – just set it up and you'll know that it will be done automatically.
Location of Files
Having your files in one place makes it so much easier to locate important paperwork. With the Space Center you can upload the files you need such as training material, equipment paperwork such as a warranty or bill of sale, and anything else you need to find quickly. You won't have to worry about misplacing these things and you can refer to them at any time, from any place with Internet.
