Track and analyze maintenance data from every angle.

There are several maintenance KPIs you can track, but here are the top five we recommend:

• Equipment downtime: The time that equipment is non-operational due to breakdowns or maintenance, which directly affects a company’s productivity
• Maintenance response time: How quickly the maintenance team responds to a maintenance request
• Mean time to repair (MTTR): The average time it takes to repair failed equipment, typically highlighting a maintenance team’s efficiency
• Overall equipment efficiency (OEE): A calculation that highlights how effective and efficient a piece of equipment is, which can help determine maintenance strategies and costs
• Completed work orders: Highlights how quickly a team is completing work orders as well as points to poor asset health if equipment is repeatedly requiring maintenance

A CMMS helps streamline the maintenance process for a given asset, keeping all essential communications and updates in one place. It also provides a centralized location for you to create, assign and track work orders for maintenance work done on your equipment, giving you an analytical overview of what’s working and what’s not. 

Here are just a few examples of the advantages that a CMMS software can provide:

• Reduces equipment downtime: A CMMS gives maintenance managers the ability to clearly manage scheduling, labor and tools needed to complete maintenance for a given asset.
• Increases productivity and team communication: A CMMS sends automated alerts to maintenance teams to ensure work is getting done on time. The software also allows for more effective communication between all parties involved in a task through in-app messaging within a given work order.
• Uses real-time data: A CMMS tracks steps taken during the repair or maintenance process and creates reports using real-time metrics that managers can use to make decisions about operational efficiency.
