Preventive maintenance templates

A CMMS allows you to trigger planned maintenance according to time, usage, meter readings, or asset condition. Once triggered, technicians are notified without having to step foot in an office. Not only can routine maintenance tasks be done quickly, but they can be done only when needed. No troubleshooting with parts or doing the same task two days in a row if it’s not necessary.

Automatically track parts, manage suppliers and vendors, optimize inventory levels and make sure you always have the right part on hand when it’s needed.

Having one central system (instead of a combo of paper work orders, Excel sheets, and work boards) means everyone uses the same procedures and follows the same best practices.

Access important information like procedures, error logs, manuals, permits, licenses, photos, images, diagrams, and schematics within asset records. This speeds up troubleshooting and work order processing times.

Without a CMMS, a good portion of an asset’s history is stored in the memory of a technician. A CMMS allows each asset to have its own unique record that details its maintenance schedule, repairs completed, parts used, and more, which can be accessed quickly and easily for regular inspections or in the event of equipment failure.

Because a CMMS tracks parts, labor, service history, and other miscellaneous expenses, it’s easy to run costing reports to see where budget was spent and make educated decisions about whether a piece of equipment should be repaired or replaced.

Data available on your dashboard and in reports generated allows you to analyze asset failures, downtime, resource utilization, and spending patterns in the CMMS. This gives you greater visibility and the ability to implement changes to add value or reduce risk.
