Often you hear or read about a facility being closed for maintenance. Whether it's a sports pavilion and recreational center, the YMCA, or a school that has the summer to tend to their maintenance needs, there are issues that have to be taken care of to ensure that the entire place runs properly and is safe for everyone.
However, some facilities cannot close when they need to get these things done. Manufacturing facilities, hospitality buildings, and those in the health care field are just a few of the maintenance areas that cannot feasibly take time off to tend to these types of needs. For those facilities, there is a solution to keep up with preventative maintenance and day to day maintenance.
Planning Ahead
Computerized Maintenance Management Software allows these facilities to plan ahead by making it easier to set up work orders, preventative maintenance, and keep up with paperwork. How it works is that all preventative maintenance is easily scheduled and can be done far enough in advance that it never gets forgotten or pushed to the back burner.
It allows you to choose when the work is done even if it is a daily occurrence or something that only has to be done twice a year. You get to manage your employees more efficiently and make sure that everything that has to be done is taken care of, even when you can't be there to assign the tasks.
Software
Another benefit is that paperwork is kept to a minimum and cannot be lost or misplaced. How many times have you searched for a specific piece of paperwork only for it to be gone forever? With the web based software, everything is available for you to see it any time you need to. You can view who did the work, when it was done, any notes that are available, and it is all available on your dashboard.

Best of all, it's updated live so you are always in the know with what goes on at your facility. This is the perfect solution for running an efficient facility where you can easily communicate, have a record of everything, and keep everything working without having to shut down.
Because life doesn't stop just so that you need upkeep done, CMMS allows you to get the job done without having to close your facility.
