How to use the EAM (Enterprise Asset Management) software? (Martin Beckett)

Enterprise asset management (EAM) software is a specialized tool to manage large facilities, fleets and equipment belonging to enterprise organizations. Buildings, systems of heating, boilers, vehicles, equipment manufacturing, heavy equipment and related items are expensive assets that must be retained and managed to extend their life cycles, minimize downtime, and manage costs.

Business management software can be used in several ways, ranging from the work order creation, scheduling, control stocks and stories of service analysis and predictive maintenance. Here are some examples of how organizations can use enterprise asset management:

Enterprise asset management - top is EAM, for which software is named. All records, certificates and details related to the assets of the company can be entered into the software, creating a centralized repository of documentation for all of the assets of the company. For example, imagine a company like BP. assets such as oil platforms, drills, pumps, and the assets of oil refinery with all their details such that the model and the serial number, price of purchase, warranties, service contracts, contracts, leases, expected useful life, security certificates and licenses can be stored in the CMMS software.

Outsourcing - Similarly, facilities such as refineries, factories, factories, sewage treatment plants, commercial buildings, high-rise buildings and even historic sites such as Big Ben and Buckingham Palace for treatment can be managed with the management software company. Everything from elevators, ventilation and electrical systems to landscaping, windows and plumbing can be managed and documented using CMMS software.

Fleet management - like buildings and equipment are assets of the joint venture, the same is true of the fleets. CMMS software can be used to manage a fleet of private hire vehicles, carts of hackney, trucks garbage, forklifts, cars of police, fire trucks, buses, metros, cranes, tractors and other motor vehicles. Documents associated with each vehicle in the fleet can be saved in the software as can pilot information service and important files.

Work order management - all by documenting the assets of the company such as equipment, facilities and fleet is one of the main roles of Enterprise asset management software, CMMS is also used to manage all these assets, including repairs and contractual maintenance-related work. CMMS software usually includes functions that allow you to assign technicians, parts and supplies and a time and date on each work of planning.

Inventory management - many organizations use CMMS software to manage maintenance-related stocks. If parts must be ordered for a repair pending or withdrawn from inventory on-site supplies, CMMS software allows to manage and document the process.

Maintenance - GMAO software shines in its functions of preventive and predictive maintenance. These tasks are often delayed or overlooked completely. You can schedule preventive maintenance programs in the software for each asset as well as implement CMMS software to monitor the readings and alert you to items that require your attention.

Google Analytics - the relational nature of the basis of the CMMS software, all data entered in the software can be analyzed. For example, a fleet manager could pull a report detailing failures throughout the entire fleet or determine which models are the most reliable. This information can be used to make more intelligent decisions.

Business management software is a comprehensive tool that helps facilities, fleet and set responsible for maintenance, manage the assets in their custody, extend their useful life and reduce downtime.
