Course Introduction
A Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) usually consists of a hardware solution and a software package that allows an organization to manage the maintenance of equipment and facilities. Use of a CMMS package should improve productivity, lower overall operating costs, and store valuable information about maintenance functions in an organization.
CMMS system
This course will bring you knowledge about the basics, how to choose the proper CMMS system, how to run it and evaluate it, and how to prove it against failure. This course presents the basics of modern maintenance management methodologies as the foundation of CMMS implementation. It will also present objectives, benefits, and features of a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS). Participants will learn how to develop system specifications for their application as well as how to justify, evaluate, implement, audit, and optimize a CMMS. As an integral part of the course, real-world exercises are included to help understand the material covered and to better apply course content at a future time.
Real benefits from a CMMS.
This course will help to understand how this technology can help you improve maintenance productivity, equipment quality, and provide better service to other departments, all while reducing the maintenance operations cost. Whether the participant is implementing a CMMS or whether they already have a system that is not working optimally, this is a practical and hands-on course designed for key people in the team to ensure they are on the right track to gain real benefits from a CMMS.
