Asset Management Overview

What is CMMS

+
-

CMMS stands for Computerized Maintenance Management information System.

Generally speaking, a CMMS is an asset management system that lets you define, track and maintain any asset or event.

What are the most common reasons to use a CMMS?

+
-

Cost management, planning, scheduling, and optimized operations management.

With the right CMMS, you can:

  • Reduce costs
  • Reduce downtime
  • Do more with less

What does an asset management system do?

+
-

At the highest level, a CMMS allows you to know:

  1. What you own and/or what you are responsible for?  (i.e. The maintenance and/or management thereof)

It also lets you identify the equipment required to run your operation (eg. types, models and number of tanks); track activity and maintenance; and optimize your usage.

  1. Where is it located?

Learn:

-Where your equipment lives physically.

-If it moves around

-What is it connected to

-What are the associated components?

  1. What state is it in?

Determine the working condition - i.e. is it in-service vs out-or-service?

And what is required to move it into service?
