You may already know what CMMS is, but just in case, it stands for Computerized Maintenance Management Software. What it does is help your maintenance department run more efficiently and easier to handle.
Here are just a few ways that CMMS makes life easier at work.
Schedule Tasks
Scheduling work orders has never been easier than with a CMMS program. You can schedule everything in advance and then the work order is delivered when it is time to be done. You can sit back and relax, knowing that everything is handled on time and when it needs to be done without having to do it manually.
Preventative Maintenance
Preventative maintenance is easy to schedule, just like handling work order scheduling. Set everything up in advance then when it is time to be done, you know that it is handled so that those little problems do not turn into bigger ones simply because the preventative maintenance was not taken care of in a timely manner.
Handle Assets
Large equipment and even smaller spare parts are easier to keep up with in the asset handling area of the CMMS program. Input when the equipment was purchased, the make, year, model number, and any other pertinent information that you need to know. You can even keep up with repair schedules which means that you are able to take advantage of the life expectancy area which allows you to weigh in on whether a piece of equipment should be repaired again or a new one should be bought.
Everything is Mobile
In the past, you were tied to your desk – so to speak. With a Computerized Maintenance Management Software program, you are allowed to move freely knowing that any time you need to access the program, it is available at your fingertips. As long as you have a web browser and an active Internet connection, you can access the program no matter where you are. No more having to run back to the office or even back to work when a report needs to be ran or something needs to be scheduled or checked on.
Reports
Speaking of reports, you can easily export everything you need at the touch of a button.
