Every MRO professional understands the
intricate needs and often-monumental costs associated with facility
maintenance. With these challenges in mind, Rimrock Technologies introduces
Equipment PM, a computerized maintenance management system designed to
schedule and track preventative maintenance tasks, dispatch and manage work
orders, track employee labor, and manage inventory.
Developed for Microsoft Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000 or XP operating systems, Equipment PM
offers an easy-to-use graphical interface and extensive built-in help
features.
Equipment PM - Overview
Equipment Templates
One way that Equipment PM eliminates tedious data entry is through its use
of Equipment Templates. An Equipment Template stores all of the
general information about a certain class of equipment such as:
- Supplier
- Make & Model
- Standard Maintenance Tasks and
Frequencies
Once templates are created for a
certain class of equipment every piece of equipment is installed to each
specific building location by copying the template and assigning specific
information such as location and serial number. Using the Template System
redundant typing is eliminated, allowing more time to focus on building
management.
Scheduling PM Tasks
After all pieces of equipment have been assigned to their respective
locations, the process of scheduling preventative maintenance begins. This
is done by assigning a month or week to the maintenance tasks that were
copied from the equipment template.
Generating PM Work Orders
To guarantee that no task goes unchecked, all scheduled tasks are dispatched
using PM Work Orders. Once equipment is installed and PM tasks assigned,
generating PM Work Orders is a simple matter of selecting the date range and
PM Work Orders are created with the tasks to be performed for each piece of
equipment.
Work Order Dispatch System
Unscheduled work or tenant requests can be assigned using the Work Order
system. Simply select a building (or tenant), type in the description of
work to be performed and choose the employee to do the work and print.
Each work order can track multiple employees and parts for total cost of
each job. And best of all, no more looking for work order copies. They can
all be found and reprinted right from your computer.
Search Work Orders
The search utility is the key to
unlocking valuable customer feedback and improving your process through
it.
Searches can be run using virtually
any conceivable combination of criteria.
For example, you can view a list of
uncompleted work orders to dispatch to your workers reminding them to turn
in their paperwork.
Searches can even assist you in
keeping track of repeat occurrences.
For example, you may select
criteria that will show you all the "Too Cold" "Complaints" that you had
"Between 4/1/2005 and 4/30/2005" in "Building C".
Also, you may print a list of work
orders for a single day or for months at a time and even narrow down the
selection based on certain criteria you select.
Comprehensive Report Capabilities
The built-in report system provides an efficient way of tracking completed
and incomplete tasks. In addition, equipment histories and part stock
levels can be managed.
