You run your facility to the best of your ability but what happens when you have to be away? Whether it's a long awaited vacation, a company training event, or even an emergency; who will take care of what needs to be done while you're gone?
Sure, you probably have someone next in charge, especially if you run a large facility. But to guarantee that everything is done exactly how you like it done, you need Facility Maintenance Software.
Scheduling Ahead
What the right software does is allow you to have everything scheduled ahead of time. For instance, you can have all of your preventative maintenance already scheduled out so that it's never forgotten or falls behind. You can also schedule work orders in advance and your employees will know exactly what to do in your absence. Now of course you can't predict maintenance orders that may happen while you're away but the great thing is that since the system is mobile, you can run reports or check in at any time and stay on top of things if you need to.
Mobility
What the right software also does is give you freedom. You don't have to be chained to your desk to submit work orders or check a workbook in order to assign jobs that are part of preventative maintenance. It even works for your employees as well. With the mobile app they don't have to come back to the shop for their work orders and they won't have to worry about hearing what you've said over a phone or radio with poor reception.
Making Decisions Remotely
There's even more – you will find it easy to keep up with equipment and inventory with the assets area of the software. There, you can keep your equipment information including how much it costs for repairs, upkeep, when it was purchased, life expectancy, and more.
