If you're a maintenance manager then you know how hectic your schedule can get. From regular day to day operations to those emergency work orders that seem to happen just when you're the busiest.
There are ways to make sure that you can control your schedule better and find more time to focus on doing your job instead of having to hustle and bustle just to stay caught up. Computerized Maintenance Management Software from Maintenance Care is the right tool for an easier workload.
How CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management Software) works is that it allows you to schedule things in advance such as preventative maintenance, and work orders are seamless to assign because everything is done right in your online browser and sent to the person handling the task – immediately and remotely.
Scheduling
For instance, if you run a distributing warehouse where your assembly line machines have to be oiled, serviced, or simply maintained on a specific time period, you can schedule this preventative maintenance work, months in advance. This way, it is always done on time and you don't have to worry about keeping up with it.
Requests
With the work order assignment, you simple input the data you need for your employee and it is sent to them. For example: Room 227 needs their kitchen sink looked at because it is dripping water. You can enter in the room number, time the work needs to be done, the employee it is assigned to, and any notes that are applicable. The employee not only gets the notification immediately but he or she can also update the information to include when the work was done, who did it, what the outcome was, and any other pertinent information that applies to the job.
Records
This allows you to keep better notes and records, and ensures that you can stay on top of work orders and preventative maintenance easier than ever so that when there are emergency work orders, they can be escalated easier. You won't have to wonder where your employees are or who did what job because everything is easily accessible – right on your desktop or any browser you use – even if you're not physically at the job itself.
