Maintenance Connection Benefits and Insights

Why use Maintenance Connection?

Key differentiators & advantages of Maintenance Connection

  • Extend Asset Lifespan: Asset tracking, condition monitoring, predictive/preventive maintenance and more helps keep assets operating at peak performance to the extent of their useful lifespan.
  • Manage Maintenance: Calendar-based maintenance scheduling facilitates preventive/predictive maintenance (PM) plans. Automated reminders trigger when routine maintenance is due, reducing the likelihood of crucial upkeep tasks falling through the cracks.
  • Assign Asset Hierarchies: Assign a custom hierarchy to assets so technicians can prioritize emergency repairs if, for example, a severe weather situation damages multiple assets. This helps protect the most important assets and keep technicians on task.
  • Reduce Asset Downtime and Failure: PM plans reduce asset downtime by improving asset health awareness and reducing the wear and tear on equipment. This cuts down on unplanned downtime by keeping assets in peak condition and significantly decreases the chances of catastrophic failures.
  • Improve Productivity: Boost organizational and labor pool productivity using work order management. Assign tasks to individual technicians and streamline the workflow from creation to completion to expedite the process.
  • Improve ROI: Realize organization-wide benefits and greater profits when technicians are more efficient, assets are operational most of the time and the chances of unexpected catastrophic failure (and the huge cost of asset replacement that often accompanies it) are reduced.

Researcher's Summary:

Maintenance Connection helps users manage assets, preventive maintenance and inventory. Notable features include easy implementation, reporting, customer support and work orders that speed up processes. Multiple forms of customizations allow users to get the most out of the system. Users also cite the number of things it can track as a central benefit.
Weaknesses include an interface that isn’t intuitive and has errors, along with a lack of integration with M/E platforms. Users also show concern over the training for reporting and difficulty of attaching and opening documents. Overall, it can be a decent choice for businesses that are looking for extensive tracking within a solution, along with the flexibility to tailor it to business needs.

Key Features

  • Work Order Management: Users can create, designate and track work orders. Administrators can assign them to individual technicians and schedule them for specific dates if there is a backlog of work to be completed..
  • Asset Management: The drag-and-drop interface offers an intuitive way to create, search and edit asset profiles. Arrange profiles via hierarchy, location, operational status and more for easy searching and cataloging.
  • Preventive/Predictive Maintenance: Create both preventive and predictive maintenance plans to schedule and perform maintenance tasks. Configurable notification settings alert technicians or administrators when repetitive maintenance tasks are due and deliver the associated work order into the queue of work.
  • Inventory Management: Whether the inventory is spare parts, raw materials or a finished product ready for distribution, automated inventory management makes it easier to manage. Barcode generation, cost tracking, part categorization, min-max value reordering and text notifications when stock reaches minimum levels are some other capabilities.
  • Calibration Management: Conduct regular calibration of instruments that perform delicate tasks — weighing, measuring and detecting pressure level — to ensure they are accurate. Automate parts of this process, including storage of historical data, planning and scheduling work on the instruments, report generation, certificates that reduce errors and overall improved operation of this process.
  • Reporting: Leverage statistical reports with 150 prebuilt designs and a range of customizable formats to gain insight into operations.
