Overview
Use the Maintenance module to maximize equipment utilization and minimize repair costs.
The Maintenance module drives work order functionality for maintenance and repair operations. This encompasses all Preventive Maintenance as well as planned and unplanned work necessary to keep equipment operating at capacity. The capabilities that help move the maintenance function into a maintenance process include, but are not limited to:
• Information Integration. Entered information is automatically integrated with related Project, Equipment, Preventive Maintenance, Employee, Inventory, Purchasing, and Budget modules so pertinent details are consistent across the system.
• Defined Equipment Structure. Equipment can be linked together for work order and cost history analysis by defined equipment or related equipment group; for example, production machines, tooling/dies, facility (building), fleet equipment, and portable equipment.
• PM Maintenance. You can schedule proactive attention for equipment by calendar date (established average usage) or actual use (captured through production history tables) to reduce unplanned downtime.
• Work Orders. Two types of work orders can be issued:
• PM (Preventive Maintenance). The PM/PdM module generates WOs using standard templates.
• CM (Corrective Maintenance). Users create WOs manually for planned/unplanned events.
The Maintenance module includes the following functionality:
• Tools List
• Production Driven Maintenance
